imagine you were a modern film director and you had to cast a movie adaptation of Coming of Age in Mississippi. Pick three people from the book and explain who you would cast to act as them in a modern film and describe why.
What modern actors would make a good actor for the people you chose and why?
The key to this question is understanding the character of the historical figures. Use citation and example from the book when depicting the people. You do not need to be a film buff or know actors to do well on this discussion. The most important part of your post is how well you use the material from the book in your discussion. The actors themselves are just the “fun” part.
You will be graded on content, creativity, and overall explanation. Basically, your grade comes down to how well you explained the historical figures, their motivations, and why you think a certain actor would be great in that role.
