 |
|
| Considering the relative impossibility of teaching anything to some of my classes after exams, I thought of showing them some movies. Does anyone know where I might obtain NZ movies with Korean subtitles? Also, can anyone suggest movies representative of NZ culture that don't suck? Would Once Were Warriors be considered appropriate for middle schoolers? |

| I teach middle school and would not show Once Were Warriors to my students... maybe to grade 3 high school students. |

Do not show once where warriors if you want to keep your job.
Try whale rider |

'Goodbye Pork Pie.'
Lots of slapstick / non verbal comedy.
Plenty of NZ scenery |

So is school policy generally quite restrictive then? My impression was that Koreans were into violent entertainment in a big way. As for the other suggestions, perhaps I'll try Goodbye, Pork Pie. Althogh it is very lame it does indeed have a lot of scenery, including my home town. I'd kind of like movies of better quality that are more representative of NZ culture though, although perhaps there aren't any. |

| A really good NZ movie was about an aspiring swimmer called 'Alex' which I thought was a great film! |

No, not appropriate at all.
As for other suggestions, I'm not much help. I think Goodbye Pork Pie is extremely dated and would be thoroughly meaningless to Koreans, (plus I just don't like it anyway).
Whale Rider was a good suggestion.
Perhaps 'The World's Fastest Indian'? |

Yes, I've seen it. It was only rated R13 when it first came out in NZ. |
