UNIT 1: Definitions, Theories, and Happiness in Difficult Times
Our first unit includes three films that are classics. While they were popular in their own times, they have continued to inspire audiences throughout the years. It’s a Wonderful Life is 75 years old and is still shown during the Holidays. Groundhog Day and The Pursuit of Happyness are shown constantly, because they have so much to say and are entertaining and meaningful.
This is also the unit where we cover the theories of happiness and, of course, most can be applied to these films. For the Developed Response, apply one theory to each film. Use three separate theories that work for each, discuss how they work, and what significance the theory has for both the film and happiness in general. In your final paragraph, draw your own conclusions regarding the films and the basis for happiness.
Check out the guidelines for the Developed Response. Use MLA format. The Response should be a minimum of three pages. It is due on January 10 at 11:59pm and worth 20 points.
