The purpose of these blogs is so students can draw connections between the readings and other forms of media. A media Blog will be due at the end of each Unit. You may choose any reading from that Unit 4 to put in conversation with the film 13th . In these short papers, first identify the key argument from the text. Then identify what the main argument of the film is. Like an article or book, film, music albums, and commercials also have a thesis or an argument they are trying to make. Once you have identified the two arguments from the text and film, explain how these two theses are related. Does the film prove the argument the text is making or disprove it? What are the connections between them? Make an argument about how these two pieces are related and support your argument with evidence from the text and the film. Please write 250 – 500 words. This should feel like a longer version of your Spotify Reflection assignment. Utilize the skills gained throughout that assignment to analyze the films with evidence from article and the film. Be specific about your evidence by pointing out character archetypes, plot points, costuming, or settings.
