I was interested by his approach to teaching film arts. The idea of focusing less on content and more on construction is a way that had been hinted at in the film classes I have taken, but never really fleshed out. When teaching literature and writing, form rather content does take center stage. I really liked his quick lesson on Housman's "With Rue My Heart is Laden" because it was so simple and clear for students to see the difference between fabula and sjuzet (two terms I would like to introduce to my students this school year).
