Here’s a possible lesson structure:

Lesson Title: Examining Trust and Desire in "Keeper"

Objective: By analyzing the dialogue, students will be able to identify themes of trust, suspicion, and longing for the past, and discuss how these elements create narrative tension.

Materials:

• The provided transcript of the "Keeper" trailer.
• Whiteboard or digital equivalent.

Lesson Activities:

1. Introduction (5 minutes):

   • Briefly introduce the concept of a movie trailer and its purpose: to intrigue potential viewers without revealing too much.
   • Explain that today's lesson will focus on analyzing the dialogue from a trailer for a film called "Keeper."

2. First Pass - Listening/Reading (5 minutes):

   • Play the trailer (if available) or have students read the transcript aloud.
   • Ask students for their initial reactions: What kind of movie do they think this is? What's the overall mood?

3. Analyzing Key Lines (15 minutes):

   • Focus on Trust:
     • Write these lines on the board: "Can I trust this man?" and "Can I trust this woman?"
     • Discuss:
       • Who might be asking these questions?
       • What does it imply about the characters or the situation?
       • Why is trust such a central theme here?
   • Focus on Uniqueness:
     • Write: "There's something special about you."
     • Discuss:
       • Who might be saying this, and to whom?
       • What could "special" mean in this context (positive, negative, dangerous)?
       • How does this line add to the mystery?
   • Focus on Urgency and Escape:
     • Write: "You’ll wake the children." "I want to go." "I want to leave now."
     • Discuss:
       • What is the implied urgency? Is someone trying to prevent something?
       • Why mention "the children"? Does it add stakes or explain the need for secrecy?
       • What does "I want to leave now" suggest about the current environment or situation?
   • Focus on the Past:
     • Write: "I want to go back... to before."
     • Discuss:
       • What does "before" signify? A happier time? A time before a specific event?
       • How does this desire contrast with the urgency to leave? (Perhaps leaving is a way to get back to "before").

4. Connecting the Themes (10 minutes):

   • Ask students to synthesize the different elements: How do the questions about trust, the idea of being "special," the desire to leave, and the longing for the past work together?
   • What kind of story do these lines suggest? (e.g., suspense, thriller, drama).

5. Conclusion & Extension (5 minutes):

   • Recap the main themes identified (trust, suspicion, secrets, escape, regret/longing).
   • Extension Activity (Optional): Ask students to write a short paragraph predicting what the central conflict of the movie might be, based on the trailer dialogue.

This lesson uses the provided transcript to build comprehension, encourage critical thinking about character motivation and plot, and practice analytical skills using English dialogue.
