Welcome to Great Jewish Hollywood Movies
Rabbi Steven Razin
Office: room 313 610-922-2443
Please feel free to email me srazin@jbha.org if you have any questions, comments or concerns.
We will be watching a selection of great Jewish Hollywood movies, a number of them, Academy Award winning movies, viewing these movies with our "Jewish" eyes: How are Jews portrayed in the film? When was the film made? What is happening in world history and Jewish history at the time the film was released? How do "I" relate to this movie? What is the movie's message?
Please keep these questions in mind as you watch these films. You will be keeping a journal as you watch each film to record your reactions and views to share with the class.
