(1) Echo the assignment option that you've chosen and do it in language that a general
audience can understand.
(2) Make a defensible, insightful claim about how the move, that you've chosen, works.
(3) Tell readers how understanding the workings of your chosen film will advance their knowledge of (a) film in general or (b) storytelling.
In other words, write for an imaginary audience not enrolled in this, or any other film, course. Assume that you have to give readers a reason to read what you've written. Your job is to explain how emotional or argumentative effects are prompted in an audience by a particular movie. The goal isn't to cover all of a movie or to prove how smart you are. You are not being asked to demonstrate knowledge of various technical terms. You are being asked to use these terms in order to explain a movie (and, by extension, movies) to your audience. This audience demands clarity of each sentence, cohesion in each paragraph, and coherence as you illustrate each point in your essay. They'd also like to be entertained.
