Assignment 2 Movie Social Analysis
Using the outline below, write a five- to seven-page review of the movie that deals with social issues:
1. A brief overview of the content, story line, and themes;
2. Identification of social aspects that are mirrored in the film;
3. Evaluation and analysis of the movie from a social point of view, with the use of social concepts. Each concept and key terms should be underlined.
4. Summary of your findings and description of changes in your beliefs and attitudes about this social problem.
You may choose a movie to analyze, you must briefly summarize the movie and then move on to the bulk of your paper, to evaluate and analyze it from a social point of view. Keep in mind that your review cannot be just a summary of the movie. You must isolate, define and discuss the social issues shown in the movie, looking for the directorial point of view and discussing what that point of view reveals about how the social issue is depicted.
PLEASE NOTE: Your paper should not be limited to a summary of the movie. In fact the summary of the plot should be very brief. It should not be a cognitive assessment or evaluation of the film’s production, or accuracy either.
