History of Medieval England - Thursday 6th Period: Movie Day

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

There is a TV in the front of the classroom, with a "Press Play" sign on the screen.

On the whiteboard behind, in neat capitals, Methos has written, "Since I rotted the brains of the Western Civ class, and since I'm in no way, shape or form packed for the England trip, I figured I would do the same to you.

"The movie is The Lion in Winter (1968 version). While some of the issues are very much the playwright's own, it is an interesting portrait of a powerful family. Also notice the level of luxury available to kings and princes in the Middle Ages... to wit, Henry kicking aside a chicken to go greet Philip, King of France.

"The trial will be held the Thursday after Spring Break. No, I haven't forgotten.

"Last note: Has anyone seen a bundle of photocopied papers and a spiral bound notebook?"

"I'm never complaining about Emily or my parents again," Cameron decided although that probably wasn't true.

Vala is fascinated by the movie. The people are sneaky, manipulative, two-faced, and greedy.

She's beginning to think she might be getting this "middle ages" thing after all....

Parker's snickering at the one-liners through most of it. And also taking notes for use later.

TALK DURNING THE MOVIE

If you have the manners of a goat, that is.

AFTER CLASS

Methos isn't back yet, so I'm not sure why you're still here...

And apparently there was a recent Broadway revival with Stockard Channing as Eleanor. Damn, I wish I'd seen that.
