IBH2 ENGLISH B 2014
TOPIC: CULTURAL DIVERSITY
ASPECT: MIGRANT FAMILIES AND CULTURAL TENSIONS
SOURCE: “Bend It Like Beckham” a film by Gurinder Chadha (Director)
Viewing Diary (10% Q1 Grade)
“Bend It Like Beckham” was a box office hit but it has been criticized for being yet another warm, fuzzy comedy to explore the tensions between the culture and values of migrant families and those of the adopted country, in this case England. However, it does draw attention to some of the realities of cross cultural clashes that young migrants and their families have to negotiate.
As you view the film, you are to write at least four blog posts of 150-200 words each, in which you comment on some of the main issues that Jess, the main character, faces. Jess is played by Parminder Nagra, a British born daughter of Sikh parents. You should identify the specific issue or situation, and then give your personal response.
If possible, post your blog comments on the site you used last year for IBH1 English. You will find your URL under the Our Space tab of HL English on Moonspaces. If you cannot do this, you will need to create a new site and e-mail it to me.
The ideas you identify in your diary will provide content for your first main Q1 assessment, a film review (40%.
