Instant Family Film

As your text discusses, family life has changed. There are many variations in families today. Choose one of the following films to view and think about the concepts from your text. I have listed critical thinking questions below.

· What’s eating Gilbert Grape (1993)

· An Unfinished Life (2005)

· Dan in Real Life (2007)

· Are We Done yet? (2007)

· Instant Family (2018)

Critical Thinking Questions while viewing:

What types of families are showcased in the movie you watched? What are the various roles of these family members?

Chapter 3 discusses a cultural shift from obligation and self sacrifice to individuation and self-gratification. Do you think the movie you viewed supports or negates this statement. Why?

Chapter 2 discusses media and how it shapes thinking. How has the media stereotyped views on families? How have your personal thoughts changed throughout this first week on families and family interactions? If they have not changed, how have your current thoughts been solidified?

Research

Approximate time: 45- 60 minutes

Use your textbook and online research to further explore the messages revealed in the movie. There are critical thinking questions listed above to focus your thought process as you choose what messages to explore after the movie.

Reflect

Approximate Time: 90 minutes

Discussion Postings Directions:

Create a posting (with the name of the movie in it) under discussions on Canvas. It should include your personal reflection of the movie based on and what you learned in reading and viewing your research. Include a web link with your description on where you found additional information online or note where it can be found in the textbook.
