Reading (to be done by November 25): 


Paper topic (paper due November 26 by 4 p.m. All papers to be emailed to gmairs@calarts.edu): 

Two more pages of progress on your final paper. This week, I care about what you turn in – I would like two pages of solid analysis of one of the films you’re discussing, working from a scene within the film. Since I’ve asked all of you to dedicate at least some of your paper to working with the films themselves, breaking down and discussing scenes in cinematic terms, THAT is what I expect in this week’s paper. Consider it another two pages out of the way to finishing your final.  Next Wednesday’s deadline is STRICT, even if you are skipping class to leave for Thanksgiving.
