When she had been called on among the last ones Rose had added in 'Hollywood I think has a famous boardwalk that showcases famous actors and actresses from the past and present.'

Next up it was time for the mini activity of naming 6 films and Rose immediatly turned to Emma because she was totally clueless. In a hushed tone she asked "Emma, can we please work together on this? I'm not sure I've seen any of the films the stills are showcasing. Do you think they are films for children? Like Huckelberry Finn or something?"

What did she know about Hollywood? Not much more than some of her classmates already answered. She did give a befuddled look over to Anna who started talking about wandlore? Surely there wasn't a correlation between Holly wood and the film place in the United States, was there??

Oh they had to identify some famous classic films from just a still? She glanced over at Rose, "Sure, but not sure how much help I'll be..." she grinned sheepishly. She had seen a few classic films but she always preferred being active with dancing rather than sitting her bum in front of a screen. "First one is Sound of Music. Pretty sure i recognize the second one too, as Chitty Chitty Bang bang." She stared at the last four, "Oh that's uh... Parent Trap," she pointed to number 5. Okay that was half of them which was about all she knew. Not too shabby for someone who didn't really watch movies.

Oh onto the next task and they were making a short film?? Something that interested her about Hollywood? But what if she didn't really know anything? "Uh, I suppose could talk about how it's cool the whole world basically revels in these celebrities. They're like household names." Well they would be, if she knew them. "Do you want to maybe be the actor and I can film you?" It wasn't that she didn't like being the star, she'd been in a handful of dance numbers after all, but she also was completely uncertain and maybe Rose would have more confidence for what to say on camera.

So they were converting from colour to black-and-white, and vice versa? That was kind of cool. Although she wasn't sure she'd ever need to use it? Seemed the colorization charm was more useful than this variation, but then again who really knew what the future held ?
