I have not read David Gilmour’s The Film Club: A Memoir reviewed a few months ago in the New York Times. It’s about a man who decides to home school his teenage son through a diet of film, film, film. Three a week. And nothing else. I was curious if anyone perusing this blog has read it, and if so, if they have any thoughts about it concerning alternative schooling and pedagogy.
