About the film Translate into Russian. Explain the grammar in underlined sentenses:
A visionary sheik has a big dream -- to bring salmon fishing to the desert. Willing to spare no expense, he instructs his repre-
sentative to turn his dream into reality, an extraordinary feat that will require the involvement of Britain's leading fisheries
expert who happens to think the project both absurd and unachievable. That is, until the Prime Minister's overzealous press
secretary latches on for its potential as a 'good will' story. Now, this unlikely team will put it all on the line and embark on an
upstream journey of faith and fish to prove the impossible, possible.
Review Read it before watching. Answer whether you agree with it or not after watching:
This is a movie wherein you'll come out of the theater glad you've spent the money for it. It's a movie about hope and determi-
nation. It's witty, has funny bits (especially how it portrays politicians and bureaucrats). Emily Blunt is great in this movie. I've 1
seen her in small parts in other movies (Jane Austen Club and the Devil Wears Prada) wherein she's very cold and proper. Here
you see two sides of a woman, one efficient in her job, and the personal soft side. I will go with Ewan McGregor to Yemen any-
time. He looks just as hot as a Jedi and as a staid British fisheries expert. Overall, it's a feel good movie.
Exercises and tasks Do these tasks after watching with a help of the «voca-book» you have the next page be-
low:

2. Read the words using transcription and their translation from each part before watching.
3. Try to paraphrase those you find difficult to remember.
4. Read and translate contextual sentences after watching so you could make sure you’ve got all the words properly.
5. Ask your partner questions around each part, using new words and phrases.
6. Remember who said each phrase or word, in the situations you’ve just watched.
7. Retell each situation. Especially those that are important for better understanding of the plot.
8. Put as many questions as you can to each part so that your partner could find the answers and discuss them with you.
9. Discussion: Please state your ideas about what persistence and faith really are. Define these words.
10. Description: Describe Dr. Fred Jones / Harriet Chetwode-Talbot / Sheikh Mohammed / Patsy (PM’s press secretary)/ Mary
Jones, appearance, character, habits, things they go for.
11. Describe Dr. Jones as if you were Harriet / Mr. Sudgen / Robert / Mary
12. Name the differencies between Asian and Western cultures. How can these be reconciled?
13. Would you like to be an oil sheikh? Why? What would you do if you you were sheikh?
14. Who are you – man of faith or facts and figures man? What are the pros and cons of each outlook?
15. Split into groups: Your task is to have 2 columns on a sheet of paper and write some bad points about faith in one column and
good points about it in another one. The team that names more such things wins.
