The Extra Credit Assignment
As if the opportunity to see an Oscar-nominated film for FREE wasn't enough, here is a further opportunity to get extra credit for doing so.
Write a one-page, typed, reflective essay wherein you establish your take on the film as a whole. Be sure to cite specific reasons (i.e.direct reference to the film itself) to justify your reaction. You may comment upon:
- the cinematic quality of the film (direction, acting, style, etc)
- the historical quality of the film (plot, veracity, anachronisms, etc)
- the film's effect on you personally (how you grew as a human being as a direct result of watching this film)
