Gun Control 1 gr. B

Today we started a new sequence with a passage from a movie entitled (called) Falling Down (1992).

Here's what we understood :

It's a fast-food restaurant, a customer wants breakfast. The cashier was condescending. 

The customer calls the girl and her manager by their names, but he doesn't know them. The man keeps on asking for his food.

The manager (Rick) is condescending too. The man is a bit sad because of his breakfast.

Here are what we imagined could happen next :

  • Maybe the customer will get out / The customer might get out.
  • Maybe Sheila will prepare breakfast after all. Sheila could prepare it.
  • Maybe they're going to fight. They're likely to fight.
  • Maybe he's going to get a gun off his bag. He must have guns ni his bag.
  • Maybe he'll play mind tricks. He's not likely to play mind tricks.
  • Maybe he has tons of money in his bag. He cannot have money in his bag.

"The customer is always right' -> Le client est roi

to escalate = augmenter (la violence)

Gun Control 1 gr A

 Today we studied a passage from a 1992 movie entitled (=called) Falling Down .  We stopped the video several times ( plusieurs fois ) and wondered : What's going to happen next ? A man wants breakfast in a fast food restaurant, but it's too late. He doesn't ask the manager why there is no breakfast on the menu, but he just asks the manager if it's possible to have a breakfast. He didn't say it, but we feel that he thinks, "I didn't eat/haven't eaten this morning, I'm hungry." He also checks his watch, the time limit is just a few minutes off. The manager starts being angry and disrespectful, and we believed the customer would make a scene. After a while, the customer takes out a bag. What is in the bag ? (money / guns to menace/threaten the manager / a costume ?) The customer uses a gun to have the menu, and he's mad because the burger is "miserable," and it's not the same as in the ad picture.     Vocab Homework a school s...
