The film appreciation option asks you to choose a favorite film and evaluate why it is successful. In simple terms: what makes the film great? You do not need to write about a film we have viewed in class this term. Though this essay relies to some extent on subjective evaluation, your paper should still include analysis. Explain what makes the film successful with specific reference to visual techniques, editing, acting, sound design, etc. For this paper, you can imagine yourself as a critic whose job is to evaluate the quality of an artistic text.
