Dear List: I'm planning a course about the Eugenics movement in America, covering, race, disability, and sexuality. I'm trying to confine most of the readings and screenings to pre-1945, except for a look at genetics, a la Gattaca, and probably X-Men (if Last Stand's on DVD by late Fall). Besides Birth of A Nation, and In The White Man's Image, can anyone think of good films to use that have eugenics as theme either at forefront or as undercurrent, in relation to race/dis/sex pre-1945? The course is a thematic freshman composition course, not a film course, so I'm more interested in things they can discuss more thematically, rather than within a trajectory of film studies discourse.
