Analytical Writings
This should always be in response to the film you watch outside of class for that week and the
accompanying essay you read about the film. It should follow the parameters below, be printed
out, and handed in at the beginning of the class period in which we discuss it.
1 single-spaced page with 1 margins; 10 or 12 point standard font, such as Times New
Roman. May exceed one page if necessary.
Divided into three sections:
1. An analytical paragraph on at least one theme, scene, character, composition,
technique, etc. of the film. Provide detail and explanation to inform and
convince the reader of your observation.
2. A paragraph explaining the purpose of the essay written on the film then
summarizing the main points and highlights.
3. Did the essay allow you to see something new about the film or reinforce what
you already thought? Explain in depth.
Avoid just writing plot summary. Assume that the reader has seen the film, so that you
can reference characters and events to illustrate your claims and make your point.
Refer to the events in present tense, as if the plot is always in motion: On his deathbed,
Kane whispers Rosebud then drops a snow globe to the floor. When Cleo sings the
tune, she begins to cry. The camera cranes forward on a scene from ancient Babylon.This is the article and the movie name is the wages of fear I want you to watch it and read the article and then write the paper, follow the requirments
