For each critical essay, you will analyze a worthwhile film of your choice. (You should read chapter 12 from your textbook before you begin the process.) Be sure that your analysis of the film includes depth, nuance & insight. Some of the insight you generate should include concepts and ideas we discuss in class. The analysis of the film will take a good deal of critical work before you will be able to synthesize your insights into this concise essay. These essays are not “writing to know”; they allow you to capsulate a substantial amount of critical work. You will turn in your critical essays through google docs.
You may choose any worthwhile film, but I expect you to tell me what worthwhile film you're choosing. And I will only allow one person to do a movie per semester.
