    Movie Review Assignment Sheet (50 POINTS)

    Overview: History is a craft and writing is the craft of the historian. It is the medium that any historian
    must use to disseminate interpretations of the past to the public and fellow historians. In many ways
    the historian is much like a detective; gathering and evaluating evidence, forming hypothesis and
    drawing conclusions in order to find out who done it. History is not memorizing facts, dates and people;
    it is how the historian analyzes and interprets information. Film is history, it is a source that can be
    analyzed and interpreted, and the film does not have to be about a historical event. For example, who
    knew that Independence Day could be a bout illegal immigration of V for Vendetta about Margaret
    Thatcher’s England. Your task is to view a film that has political themes and to write an analysis of that
    film connecting it to issues discussed in class.

    Description: A film analysis is not a review or summary of the plot, it should go deeper into analysis and
    reaction. It should discuss the issues raised by the film, address the film’s importance and purpose,
    state reactions to the content and quality of the film, and connect it to ideas and material presented in

    o Comment on the screenplay, acting, direction, and production values and music.
    o Are any literary techniques such as symbolism, character development and
    foreshadowing used?
    o Would a young person be interested in this film? (

     Relate the film to class discussions, readings, notes or knowledge.


    o Is the film historically (or factually) accurate and realistic?
    o Does it contradict or support anything you have learned?
