1. John Grinstead, Movies for Introductory Linguistics Courses

A month ago, I sent out a query regarding movies that could be used to
teach introductory linguistics courses. My thanks to the thoughtful
folks from whom I received helpful replies:


Jeff MacSwan

Ana Isabel Codesido Garc�a

Louanna Furbee

Elma Blom

Clifton Pye

Mike Cahill

Lise Menn

Lynn Santelmann

Carolyn Cheney

Tina Bennett-Kastor



All of their kind suggestions turned out to be included in an extremely
well-prepared list that was published on Linguist List 4 years ago by
Steven H. Weinberger of George Mason University. Steven's message can
be viewed at http://linguistlist.org/issues/7/7-1708.html#1 .
Especially useful are Steven's annotations accompanying each movie.


Thanks to all, especially Steven,



John
