It's Actually Not That Complicated; Tuesday, Second Period, 11/01.
Last night had been a very late one for Rosa, and she honestly didn't feel like teaching very much this morning, but the problem with a class about movies is that it made wanting wing it with a movie day a little more....well, complicated.
Ironic, since that was kind of the movie they were supposed to talk about that day, that the whole class title was based on, but Rosa didn't want to get into it that day.
Luckily, she found an elegant solution.
"Today," she said, "we'll be watching a movie, but it's not a Nancy Meyers movie. It is one of the greatest movies ever to be made in the entire existence of the world, but that's beside the point. Consider this sort of a test: we're going to watch this other movie, and compare and contrast: what similarities do you see with a Nancy Meyers film? Are there any fundamental differences? Would you classify this as a Meyers-esque film, why and why not? All that good stuff. And I've got candy, too, if you aren't sick of it yet."
And, if you hadn't guessed it by now, the movie was definitely exactly what you should have thought it was.
