The third and final paper for Elements of Film deals with
genre analysis. If you have already
written on this subject, you may choose either the analysis of a single film or
the discussion of a director’s work (subjects of the two earlier papers).
For this last paper please select a genre and give a brief
history, a discussion of its conventions, styles and themes. Also important is which notable filmmakers
might have made this a focus of their work and if this genre fits into the
national identity of any particular country.
Viewings outside the required films are always good to add credibility.
You may turn this paper in on the final day of class or
email it to me no later than Friday, Dec. 13.
There will be no penalty for doing so.
Please send it to:
If you have any past due papers, these are due on the last
day of class. I will accept them, but
deduct one grade for anything late.
See you all Monday night for the final exam.
