• The assignment is due October 19th@10:30am via the eClass Turnitin submission link Steps: 1. Choose a film from the list below: Salt of the Earth (1954) Sorry to Bother You (2018)
The Take (2004)
2. Watch the film (through eClass) and take notes: As you watch, keep the core course concepts in mind. 3. Identify at least 7 course concepts that are depicted in the film you watched
i.e. alienation from the process, hegemony, surplus value, indentured labour, patriarchy, racism, colonization, exploitation, etc… **And please note, its good to use a variety of concepts. i.e. 4 of the 7 concepts should not be different aspects of alienation.
4. Analyze the ways the film addresses the concepts you’ve chosen.
How does the film illustrate the concept? i.e. In Salt of the Earth patriarchy is shown through . . . Sorry to Bother You addressed the idea of alienation in the way it depicts . . .
Notes: a. This is not a research paper. Do not use outside sources. The point is for you to develop your own analysis. b. Only use description of the film to make your point!! We have seen all the films and do not need a summary. What we want to see is an analysis. A good way to check whether you are using too much description is to ask yourself: How does this description illustrate my point? Is it necessary to make my argument? c. Please ensure you clearly define the concepts you use in your own words.
You will be graded on:
a. your comprehension of the concepts (your ability to accurately define the concepts you use and the depth understanding exhibited through your analysis) b. the overall quality of your analysis c. your ability to support your arguments d. your ability to clearly articulate your ideas
**Please make sure to cite lecture notes and course material you draw from. Refer to the syllabus for more details on citation guidelines and guides.
