English 1080: "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?"

Since I don't usually have time in class to show feature-length movies, I thought I'd share this with those of you in my English 1080 class.

First, there's a movie trailer for a 1986 film of Oates's story, starring Laura Dern.

There's also a series of clips from the film strung together. There are, of course, lots of differences from the story, "Where Are You Going, Where Have you Been?" but it's similar in essence.

Also, I wanted to remind you that we start "The Chrysanthemums" on Monday, and there will, as always, be a quiz.
