Proyecto # 3

Español 4 Proyecto # 3 Due/Deadline Monday, March 28


Think about the events that occurred during the stories “La viuda de Montiel” and “Cartas de amor traicionado,” and think about the characters. Imagine that after everything that has happened in the stories, a television channel invites some of the characters to be interviewed on a talk show. Each group will create an interview in a talk show style that they will record. The video should have the “feel” of a talk show.

Here are the characters (Each group may not have all characters, or some people may play double roles:

For “La viuda de Montiel”

The widow Montiel

The daughter of Montiel

The son of Montiel

Carmichael, the family servant for many years

A person living in the town who experienced Montiel’s influence over the town during his lifetime.

Talk Show Host



For “Cartas de amor traicionado”

Analía Torres

Uncle Eugenio Torres

La Madre Superiora – Mother Superior (Head nun)

Luís Torres (Remember, he dies during the story so he can’t be a guest)

Analía and Luís’ son

The son’s teacher (also an old friend of Luis Torres)

Talk Show Host



Possible topics to discuss:

 The events that occurred in the story

 Feelings over the events that occurred

 Feelings different characters have about the other characters and why – may also include examples of behaviors that prompt these feelings

 Feelings about the outcomes of the story

 Any “inside scoops” – these can be an extension of the story – reasonable outcomes or events that could possibly have occurred given what we know in each story.
