1. Respond to two of the three question below: • In what ways do we see the presence of “models” or paradigms of disability in the film? (medical, social and cultural models from the class lecture on Canvas). There isn’t any specific mention of models of disability, so you have to make the connection! • Who are “duds” supposed to represent in this film? How are they portrayed? How are they treated? • What are some ideas that you think the creators of the films wanted to convey to the audience issues such as disability, attitudes and discrimination? (i.e. ableism) 2. Make your own question based on an idea that came to you while watching the film. Post the question to your group at the beginning or end of your post so they can respond.
