So well done! Such a realistic story and I kept wondering why I'd never heard it, and only got suspicious when you included her personal marriage proposal. This would be a great lesson. Many people have seen both movies, and if they haven't a teacher could show the class snippets. Then assign students to read your article silently, and have them do K-W-L alone. That is how you'll know who actually read to the end. After the big reveal to the whole class, when you do a class version of the K-W-L, have students write their own version with artists. musicians ect. that they really like.
