Course Requirements

Grades will be based on three requirements:

1. Keeping a journal in which you keep a record of your film viewings. This journal should form the basis of your final paper (see below). Journals will be checked weekly.

2. Two brief (1-2 pages) critiques of films selected from the collateral titles on the Film List

3. A final essay (1,000 words) on a topic related to the theme of the course. I will pass out a list of topics at the beginning of Week Four. The final papers will be due by 3:00 PM on January 27th.
