French A2 Edexcel

Hello everyone!
As far as I could tell, there isn't a thread for French A2 this year, and seeing as though last years worked so well (they ended up predicting the question that came up for the research based) I thought I'd take it upon myself to start this one!

So for those of you out there doing literature for your researched based, which book are you studying?!

Hiya! I'm doing 'literature and the arts' as well, but I'm doing a film instead. It's called 'La Rafle' and it's about the 'round-up' of Parisian Jewish people during the Holocaust.

What are you doing?

Something similar, I'm doing 'Un sac de billes' by Joseph Joffo, its about the life of a 10 year old as he escapes through France to the "Zone Libre" where he and his family will no longer be persecuted. Good material to write about but not my idea of great literature! Its a shame 'techniques du style' came up last year, I would have loved it for this year!! Feeling any sort of question in particular?!

That sounds interesting!

Past questions were:

June 2010 - Évaluez l’importance du milieu social dans l’œuvre que vous avez étudiée.
June 2011 - Décrivez un thème important traité dans le livre, le film ou la pièce que vous avez étudié(e). Ce thème est-il intéressant pour un lecteur ou un spectateur moderne ? Expliquez votre réponse.
June 2012 - On dit qu’un vrai héros n’est ni tout à fait bon ni tout à fait mauvais. Choisissez un personnage dans l’œuvre que vous avez étudiée et examinez son caractère en vous référant à ce jugement.

...so I'm thinking that maybe 'milieu social' might come up again, or perhaps scenes/events?

What about the Geography question: what do you think that will be?

Hi! I'm doing Lacome, Lucien for my RBE. It's a film by Louis Malle. I have essays prepared for setting, style, theme, themes, character, characters, aspect, and extract. I also just have a bank of primary and secondary quotes that can be used in general for any essay. I have been told by my teacher to revise setting and extract, as extract hasn't come up yet and setting came up first time around. She also has said that the message of the piece is something that could easily come up.

I'm really struggling to retain the vocab - there's so much of it! I'm just worried that in the translation there will be words that I don't know and also in the discursive, but at least I'll have four titles to choose from! Anyone got any tips?

I'm doing la Haine for literature and arts. Hoping one of these will come up:

Key scene
Techniques
Theme

What do you think will come up?
