We have used both the book and the film in our Senior Social classes - but
would suggest you read the book first before suggesting it. We are big
Truman Capote fans around here also and do much of his literature.

Subject: [LM_NET] Target: In Cold Blood


Hello!

The teacher who will be covering our "Media/Lit" class next year has
proposed using "In Cold
Blood"  to our curriculum director. The Curriculum Director has asked me if
I felt it was
appropriate for a senior only class.

I do not have any first hand experince with either the book or the movie as
I have not read it
nor have I seen the movie. (sheltered life?) :-)

My question concerns both the movie (1967) version, as well as the book, "In
cold blood" by
Truman Capote:

Does anyone have experience teaching/using "In cold bood" at their school?
Professional  opinions and comments welcome as well, even if you haven't
seen the title used,
but think that this may or may not be appropriate for use in class.



Thanks for your time,

Jackie
