Streetcar Named Desire

1) After watching A Streetcar Named Desire, what do you think of the performances? Did anything surprise you about this movie? What do you think the movie was saying about gender and class? (https://archive.org/details/A.Streetcar.Named.Desire.1951.464×336.25fps.739kbs.V4mp3.MultiSub.WunSeeDee ) 2) How is the version of “Battle Royale” in the book different from the video we watched? What are some of the symbols in this scene, and what do? you think they represent? https://learning.hccs.edu/faculty/selena.anderson/engl2307/readings/battle-royale-by-ralph-ellison (link to the article) and the link to the video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVTv3ilp4LA) 3) Ginsberg’s poetry is breakthrough in many ways, but is undoubtedly obscene. Even worse, Ginsberg was a member of NAMBLA, an organization that supports pedopihilia and wants to remove laws against underage sex. In other words, most people would regard him as a horrible human being. So, should we bother to study him? What about his poetry makes him worth remembering, despite his behavior and beliefs? Where should we draw the line on “cancel culture”? https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/49303/howl ( link to the poem ) or YouTube link the poem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkNp56UZax4 ( link to the poem) 4) After watching the Wallace video and reading his essay, comment on whether you think he can take his own advice. Where do you see him practicing the kind of good writing he is talking about in the video, and where do you see him falling victim to his own criticisms? Or does he? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52kiS1oV2k0 (link to Wallace ‘s video) FOR WALLACE’S ESSAY am sending the link to the textbook with the page number I think it will be better to read directly from the textbook https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kjF4ucnOjfqQizyWPw3Drqf75rhGkgb6 (link to the textbook) From consider the lobster by Wallace (PAGE 3468)
