In order to present the background information and influences behind Suzanne Collins’ writing of The Hunger Games to my 10th graders, I decided to make a quick video montage. It is set to a song by ES Posthumus and uses clips from Gladiator, Theseus and the Minotaur, Immortals, The War in Iraq, The Hurt Locker, Survivor, Fear Factor, and various Real World/Road Rules Challenges and Reality TV series.
