Abstract	Authentic video material designed for its entertainment value rather than language teaching is a rich and exciting source of video software for instruction in English as a second language (ESL). Available authentic material falls into two categories: off-air recordings of television broadcasts and videocassettes for rental or purchase. This material is intrinsically motivating to students, presents real language, provides an authentic look at the culture, aids comprehension, and gives student practice in dealing with a medium. In choosing authentic material, the teacher should look carefully at its language, content, and production. There is no single correct way to use video in language teaching, but teachers experienced in intensive language practice generally agree that it is beneficial to show short segments, allow for repeated viewing, encourage active viewing, present activities before viewing, know the material, and know the equipment. Activities designed for use with a segment of the comedy feature film "High Anxiety" include descriptive, listening, and imaginative exercises using pictures only, sound only, or pictures and sound together. A bibliography is included.
