present their work on Downfall (2004).
If you’ve had enough stereotypical crazy Hitlers with bad
German accents, see the landmark acting performance that
makes him real without excusing his actions. This is the film
based on the first-hand account of the secretary he hired into
WWII who makes her own appearance shortly before her death,
and with her, the piercing performances of the infamous Eva
Braun, Joseph Goebbels, and Hermann Goring.

Can you shoot a guy from your washtub? Can you save a
hanging man with a perfect shot through the noose? Can you
stop yourself from humming the famous theme song you’ll
recall when you hear it again? See the legendary spaghetti
western that made Clint Eastwood famous – plus two great
villains who put new wrinkles on his pretty face.

misunderstanding on our lives in Harford County. Co-sponsored
by the African Students Association.

Foreign Film Series: students in MC206: History of Film
present their work on Amelie (2001).
Before there was The DaVinci Code, there was the quirky fun of
this French classic starring Audrey Tautou, the misfit who
charms you with her good deeds for someone she doesn’t know,
her mischievous paybacks to a nasty boss, and the gnome she
sends on a world vacation complete with snapshots to her dad
who won’t leave home – or will he? And what’s with the guy in
the photo booth?
