The obvious and logical start for such a course would be Chaplin's the Immigrant. See http://www-scf.usc.edu/~frankfur/theimmigrant.htm. I'd also think Coppola's The Godfather might also be useful. -----Original Message----- From: William Lingle [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2003 9:06 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Immigrants in film A friend is putting together a course on the American immigrant experience. He would like to include five or six films released by Hollywood that explore the subject. Any suggestions?
