Group Reflection• It has already come to the end of this project, we all think that we did pay

effort in it but we did not try our very best to finish it. The main point is that we did not have enough time to do the work since there were some other academic projects in our waiting lists. Anyways, we have really learnt a lot during this period. We have learnt the ways to find helpful information, such as going to the library, using newspapers, books and the Internet. We have spare out some time to meet in the library and discuss the issues together. We had not pay close attention to the changes in the filming industry. All we did were just going in and out of the movie theatre but after doing this project, we know more about the differences between different comedies in the two different decades. We have improved our communication skills and built up our friendships between each other. We have benefits a lot in this cross-subject project.
