From NECTFL Review #62 (Spring/Summer) Cinema for French Conversation by Anne-Christine Rice (which comes with a comprehensive Teacher’s Manual) is an outstanding text that is unlikely to be equaled anytime soon. This visually attractive, luxurious, 358-page tome is a language text in its own right since it incorporates a great many language-specific activities.... For right now the standard of excellence is measured by our good friends up in Newburyport, Massachusetts. ~ Thomas Conner, St. Norbert College
Of the second edtion: La première édition de Cinema for French Conversation a facilité considérablement la préparation de mes cours. Elle a de surcroît reçu un accueil chaleureux de la part de mes étudients qui se sont entièrment investis dans l’étude des films et à travers eux de la France. Avec une sélection actualisée de la production cinématographique française, je suis sûr que la seconde édition sera non seulement l’instrument parfait pour initier et diriger les discussions en classe, mais encore une présentation originale et attrayante de la société, de l’histoire et de la culture françaises. ~ Florian Vauléon, Ohio State University, The French Review, April 2004
I have used the second edition of this book, and it made it very easy to plan lessons, and teach the class. It has been a big success. The students LOVE the class and the text. They say that their ability to speak French and understand French culture/history improved immensely |over the course of the class.
~ Nathalie Cornelius, Bloomsburg University of PA |
