Those who know me know that I am obsessed with Film, and I love the app & website Letterboxd.
I use Letterboxd as a teaching tool. I have a series of Lists to help students understand Genre and National Cinema. Now I have a new series: History on Film.
I built these lists to help me to understand the different periods of history, particularly in England.
- Prehistoric times
- What is your Roman Empire?
- The Dark Ages
- Mediaeval Times
- Tudor and Elizabethan
- Stuart Times
- Georgian Times
- Victorian Times
- Edwardian Times
- WWI (best War movies)
- 1920s
- 1930s
- WWII (best War movies)
The Dark Ages / Middle Ages / Mediaeval Periods required additional research.
I used the Notes function to include additional research, so I could identify when each of the stories were (roughly) set. So they should be in order from earliest to latest.
I hope you find value in this resource.
What’s the next thing I should build lists on?
