Parents: Most of these film selections are rated PG-13 or above, but are considered important to film history, see the Parent Info page for more details.
Summer Reading List? Pfft. This is a film class. Please view 3-5 of the following films or limited series to expand your film horizons! This is a wide variety of films that you may not have heard of, or even considered watching, but will still be interesting to you if you give it a chance. An extra credit classwork assignment grade will be offered in August. You have to actually watch the films, because the assignment involves discussing the film, so it'll be obvious if you haven't watched it.
Most of these films should be available on a streaming service - you can search for them here: https://www.justwatch.com/
If you don't have access to these streaming services, check to see if your local library has a copy - they have more movies than you'd think! If you can't find any of these, I will also accept 3-5 films made before 1990, or any non-English films made outside of the US.
