But a passive viewing of a movie about war does little to help students learn to be critical thinkers about their country's choices. In The Defeated and the Dead: Teaching About War Through Film, Dr. Mark Pearcy outlines strategies and resources for teachers to incorporate movies about war into their classes in an effective, thoughtful manner.
