History through Film: Volume I
Ideally suited for teachers wanting to use film in the classroom, students needing to separate fact from fiction, or those yearning to know more about the world presented on screen, History through Film will uncover the past that inspired the directors, and even give you the skills to know the trademark "tricks" filmmakers use to alter history. This anthology of 27 film reviews includes such film classics as Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator, Braveheart, and Patton, while also looking at such recent hits as Blood Diamond, 10,000 B.C., National Treasure: Book of Secrets and 300. Each film analysis will provide a brief synopsis, DVD counter reference for key historical scenes, background information of era/event, detailed analysis of historical accuracy and key quotes from the film.
