Wednesday, November 6th Class

       Today in our shortened class, we finished the rest of the film "Baby Driver". Before I begin to fill you in with what you might have missed, just a reminder that Level One of the book "Ready Player One" is to be read by Monday, when we return from our long weekend. While reading, keep a look out for allusions and assembly in the text. Now, onto "Baby Driver"!      Quick summary of the rest of the film that you might have missed: When we picked up, Baby was rescuing his deaf foster dad from home, after the robbers had broke in. Baby drops him off at a home since he can no longer care for him. He then goes to the diner to get Debbie, but the robber whose wife got killed is there, with a gun. He is angry with baby for letting his wife die. Baby gets his gun and shoots him, an him and Debbie steal a car to run away. But first, they go to Baby's boss to get his tapes. The boss helps them run away and get by the police. The robber Baby shot shows up driving  a cop car and is determined to kill Baby and Debbie. After a long chase scene around the parking garage, and making baby nearly deaf, the robber dies. Baby and Debbie finally hit the road, but are stopped by police. Baby turns himself in, and ends up being subject to 25 years in prison, even though many testified for his good character. At the end of the film, we also find out that his real name is Miles.      Don't forget!! You must complete the assignment for "Baby Driver" on Google Classroom by the end of the weekend. Choose 2 songs from the film that develop Baby as a character and 2 that develop an aspect of the film, such as theme or editing. If you are confused, here is an example of how the song "Easy", played at the end of the film, develops Baby's character. - This song played off his tape labelled "mom" shows why Baby's character is fascinated with music; his mom sang and therefore music was one of the few good parts of his childhood that he holds onto.
