Film Critique

Film Critique
A critique is somewhat different from a review. A critique is an analytical essay on a film, in which you give your opinion on the aesthetic quality of the film and then give your reasons for your opinion. Unlike a review, you assume that the reader has already seen the movie; you do not need to give an extensive plot summary. Also, you do not need to hide plot information so as not to spoil the surprise of the viewer. Finally, you do need to be consistently analytical and critical. Focus on whether the main elements of the film come together to make a coherent, beautiful, and moving film.
Instructions: Write a three-to-five page paper (excluding the Works Cited page), analyzing the movie, Nell (1994). You will need to provide three reasons (premises) to support your claim.
