Eva and I have been doing a film study of sorts

[conuly]

Mostly this is because we needed something to study so I can get a few months of writing work with her before she hies off to high school, and she wasn't interested in anything conventional.

Not that she's terribly interested in movies, but if I remember I can make popcorn.

Thus far we've watched Sweeney Todd, Billy Elliot, The Sound of Music, and (tonight) West Side Story. At her behest I think we're going to end up with Black Panther next week. She strongly didn't like West Side Story....

Any other suggestions?

Given the dislike of West Side Story, Cabaret might be a bit too...much. Hairspray could be good.

We were always partial to Music Man and Unsinkable Molly Brown, on the older side of the catalog.

Also Fiddler, if conuly is still looking to inject some more non-Christian religious education in the mix.

True, Cabaret might be a bit heavy. Although it deals with issues too Hairspray is a quite a bit lighter.
