Mr. Duez - Teacher - Atascocita High: June 2010

First Semester - History Through Movies. More than a few students have asked throughout the years to have a list of movies that I would recommend according to what we studied in history. I decided to start with the beginning and list a few. I am sure there are some I should add, and maybe even a few I could subtract. I'll be working on the spring semester this week and will also make changes to this list as I find them. Are there any movies I missed? 10,000 B.C. Indiana Jones The Raiders of the Lost Ark.
