For your assignment, you are to view a film and to analyze it historically in a three to five-page double-spaced paper written in Google Docs. It is your responsibility to find the film to view, and you should email the title to the instructor before viewing the film. Do Not View Documentaries. (PLEASE REMEMBER TO EMAIL ME THE TITLE OF THE FILM)
The analysis must address four main areas:
1. The history
-Is it accurate, or was it “Hollywood” to make more money?
-Are events presented realistically and chronologically?
2. Setting, details, design, and behavior
-Are locations, costumes, and sets accurately portrayed?
-Has the filmmaker included details that enhance the historical atmosphere and viewing experience?
-Do the characters speak and act as people in their time, situation, and class did?
-Are gender relationships accurately rendered?
3.****THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT AND DIFFICULT PART OF THE ESSAY**** Agenda and Values
-What does the filmmaker do to influence feelings and emotions?
-What sort of heroic and villainous icons are presented and supported in the film?
(Who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy and why do you think that way about them?)
-What messages did the filmmakers wish to convey?
4. Effects
-Does the film succeed in producing the desired effect?
-How does it change your understanding of history?
