[LM_NET] TARGET: Showing "Control Room" to a class of seniors?

[Diane Ferbrache <Diane.Ferbrache@RENTON.WEDNET.EDU>]

Have any of you (or any of your teachers) shown the film "Control Room"
in your schools?  One of my teachers is interested in sharing this film
about the Al-Jazeera network to her class of Seniors taking contemporary
World Issues.  The film is very well reviewed and shows the war in Iraq
from a different perspective.  This seems like a worthwhile idea, but
there is some strong profanity and some graphic images of violence from
the war including the bodies of American soldiers.  The film is not
rated by the MPAA.  

 

Any suggestions?
