After reading the book The Canterville Ghost in class with my students in the third year of Secondary Education, we have seen the film with the same title and based on the tale by Oscar Wilde.
The film was made in 1944 in the USA. It was directed by Jules Dassin and the script was written by Edwin Harvey Blum. We saw the film in English with subtitles in Spanish so that everyone could follow it easily but still had plenty of exposure to the English language.
My impression was that all my students enjoyed the film, but just to make sure, I'd love all of them to write a comment on the film. I would also appreciate if you could all sign with your real names and would comment on the differences between the film and the book, besides mentioning any other details about the director's job, the sceneries, the actors and actresses, etc....
I'm looking forward to your comments!!
HELLO TEACHER!;D The book's been amazing! Everything was very interesting! When we saw the film The Canterville Ghost we realized that it was very diferent from the book but we liked both. The character that we liked most is Virginia in the book and Lady Jessica in the film, because she is so cute! We apreciated some differences between the film and the book, like the people that bought the house in the book were a family and in the film they were soldiers. We enjoied both the book and the film a lot.
