Drama • Fantasy • Horror • Musicals • Mystery • Romance • Science Fiction • Sports • Thriller • Western • Documentary List cited from: https://www.masterclass.com/articles/how-to-identify-film-genres#13-classicmovie-genres Things to consider while watching: • Does the film deal with large scale/macro-level forces such as economic or political institutions, or systemic inequality? Or, does the film deal with smaller scale (microlevel) interactions between individuals such as individual bias or discrimination? Maybe it deals with both levels? • Does the film examine a specific topic throughout, such as race, gender, class, age, sexuality, etc.? • You do not necessarily need to analyze the entire film. Try to identify an overarching message or theme from the film, as well as key scenes or characters to which you will apply sociological theories and concepts. • Review the S&F text for the 4 major sociological themes that are used to examine movies – identity, interactions, inequality, and institutions (p. 4) What is this paper not? • A summary of the movies. You are not simply explaining “what happened” in the films, you are analyzing the films (or major parts of them) by applying sociological concepts. Requirements: •
I’m working on a sociology writing question and need guidance to help me learn.
Class: Visual Sociology
Request: Write a 8 Page, APA, double spaced two movies comparison analysis which deals with various sociological topics and social theories. The two movies which you will approach in your essay are: Just Mercy and 12 Years Slave.
This is NOT a summary, and papers which focuses on the plot and not on sociological aspects, will result in a failing grade. You MUST apply 2 social theories or concepts to explain the sociological topic which is featured in the film.In addition to this, your work must related at least a minimum of 5 sociological concepts (no more than 7) which must be bolded.
The attached document contains the full request and will tell you exactly how the work should be written. It clearly mentioned what headings to use and how to approach each film. Please follow that rubric.
