Lost in School

Apologies for being an absentee blogger, nearing the halfway point in my coursework and it's been a brutal spring. I've mentioned my ongoing interest in movie trailers, and as I prepare a research proposal comparing the content of green-band trailers [approved by the MPAA for all audiences] to the content of red-band [restricted] trailers for the same features, I'm going to take advantage of the generous embedding feature at ifilm [now www.spike.com] to post some samples.
