This was great fun but, thanks to Natasha, also full of insights and observations that will help teachers of Drama, Film and Theatre. Natasha is brilliant. Also, we discuss how depressed fairy lights look during the day. Should they be brought in during daylight?

Our latest episode is now online, with @conorsmurf and Natasha Waugh joining us to talk about Celine Song’s “Past Lives”, which is on the new Drama, Film and Theatre Studies course on the Irish Leaving Certificate. A fun discussion of a lovely film. soundcloud.com/the250/431-pas…

Arrived today. European Art Cinema is one of the options for the prescribed film section of the new Drama, Film and Theatre course. Not easily defined, but easily described, I'm hoping to clarify it with some Elsasser insights.

Interesting that a lot of fans of James Gunn's "Superman" don't see that he's very overtly doing "the descent of Christ into Hades" in the three days between Superman turning himself into the authorities and his triumphant return to Metropolis. There's even a Charon and a Styx.

Half way through box 3 of the Bergman boxsets.

Today's film was The Silence, Ingmar Bergman, 1963.

My first time going on the radio as a "film buff." Nothing to do with education! All about James Bond. (Saoirse Ronan would be perfect) open.spotify.com/episode/2VY5NP…

✨There is so much to dive into here. This study by Barbara Oakley stood out for me. I remember seeing her at @researchED1 Dublin a few years back @sccenglish. Thank you for putting all of these together @C_Hendrick

Today's film is Winter Light, Ingmar Bergman, 1963.

A great book on the, well, eventful life and work of Bergman. His work in film was more obviously biographical, and personal, than his work in theatre, but he was a master of both. Highly recommended.

Really enjoying this book, especially as I'm currently working my way through the BFI boxsets.

I’d love to see @Education_Ire undertaking such a review. Will be fascinating to dissect this report and see what could apply down south.

In this report, I set out the case for a new curriculum framework for Northern Ireland, that is: - purpose-led - knowledge-rich - continuous and coherent - specific and focused - inclusive and flexible education-ni.gov.uk/articles/revie…
