Here there's a summary of the movies suggested. Most of them, to my knowledge, do not have english subtitles that are necessary (at least if I would like to show the entire movie) for students who do not speak or understand any italian. The course is designed to expose Freshman students to italian culture (and I thought of food as a fundamental "cultural marker": Grazie mille, Lidia Ciccone Big Night Pranzo di Ferragosto GodFather Il Gattopardo Miseria e Nobilta' (and many more of Toto' movies) La Cena Un Americano a Roma La Storia di Ragazzi e Ragazze (Pupi Avati) Pasolini's Decameron C'eravamo tanto amati, La Terrazza (Ettore Scola) A very useful book is: Dalla fame all'abbondanza.
