Good Night and Good Luck



So when you are a substitute teacher, you watch a lot of movies. Some teachers feel more comfortable just having students watch a movie and take notes instead of trying to do a lesson plan. However, what teaches fail to realize is that a substitute teacher in the Junior High and Senior High level will watch the same movie over and over throughout the day. What is even more annoying is the fact that you NEVER FINISH the movie. So if it's a movie that you haven't seen before, you will go home wondering how it ended. Think to yourself, "I should really rent that movie, and finish watching it." But you know you never will!!!!

So yes, I was teaching a multi-media (broadcasting) class today in highschool and got to watch the movie "Good Night and Good Luck" three times, but never the ending. It actually was a good movie to watch. It dealt with Edward Murrow and his battle with Senator McCarthy over communism.

So maybe I should go rent it...it does have the handsome George Clooney playing a major role in it!
