- W3136193935 abstract "profit des articles réunis ici ainsi que des renseignements pour l’accès à la ressource fondamentale pour l’étude des variétés du français qu’est la BDLP. Indiana University, Bloomington Albert Valdman Methods and Materials edited by Sarah Jourdain CONDITTO, KERRI. Cinéphile: Intermediate French Language and Culture through Film. 2nd ed. Newburyport, MA: Focus, 2011. ISBN 978-1-58510-394-2. Pp. xx + 438. $79.95. This package is a complete tool aimed at teaching second-year French through film. It contains a student’s manual, an instructor’s manual, a student’s workbook, an instructor’s manual for the workbook, a test bank (printed and on CD) for both oral and written exams and a composition topics bank. This second edition features a new layout and more exercises that allow students to learn in a more personalized way. To allow for a full-immersion experience, the whole book is in French, including the grammar explanations. Icons are consequently used to help students identify and recognize the type of exercise they are completing , such as a megaphone for practice in pronunciation or three profiles representing group work. Each chapter is divided into the same three parts for continuity: pre-viewing, post-viewing, and going beyond. Each of these sections offers an array of exercises on vocabulary, grammar, and culture, which is presented through the use of films and other elements, such as poems, articles, pictures, etc., related to a film’s theme(s). Visually, the book and workbook are full of recent pictures and a color code, which also helps students navigate within the manual, although the code for colors is not explained in the book’s guide for use. Interestingly, there is no section that is intended to be used while the students watch the films. Such a section would allow students to watch the films more actively than passively. Additionally, although the bounty of activities and information are an instructor’s paradise, it sometimes feels that the structure of each chapter is lost. As far as the films are concerned, they represent different genres (cartoon, drama, comedy, documentary, adventure, thriller) and show different areas of France, such as a few geographical regions (Paris and Île-de-France, Auvergne, Vercors), France’s relationship with the European Union, the current state of the economy, some history and historical timeframes (World War Two and the Middle Ages), education, and the question of religion, immigration, and banlieues. Despite the variety in themes, it is important to note that eight of the nine films chosen were made by male directors. However, the nine films (one film per chapter) do allow for a great variety of vocabulary and grammar topics, as well as many different themes that should generate interesting conversations and to which students will be able to relate. Those instructors looking for a more Francophone approach to their teaching might not be happy with this package, as it clearly states in its title that it focuses on only French language and culture. The author also provides a very clear guide on how to use the book in a fifteenweek semester for two semesters. Unfortunately, that guide applies for a book with ten chapters, not one with nine. The student’s workbook allows students to 1240 FRENCH REVIEW 86.6 dig deeper and gives more practice with all learned structures, by completing translations, analyses, compositions, and games, in addition to more traditional grammar and vocabulary exercises. The oral and written tests focus on the students’ ability to apply the concepts they have learned while relating them to their lives or current topics happening in their country or the world. Students will not be inactive in a class taught with this manual. There are a variety of exercises to assign at home and in class, to do in groups or alone, and many ways for the students to acquire the newly explored themes through the study of a selection of award-winning films.
