Due to the poor quality of the movie viewing over zoom, we we were unable to watch the movie today.

Homework: students will watch the movie at home at their leisure. 

Next class: students will have to list the differences between the movie and the book and speculate on why so many changes were made to turn a political satire into a romantic comedy.
