Using the film Citizen Kane, class discussion and the 2 (two) Kane articles; formulate a paper using the following criteria:
COMPARE & CONTRAST: Citizen Kane with another film on the American Film Institutes 100 years …100 movies list. (See Attached 100 top movie list.)
What you should think about when picking a film:
– How does this movie compare to Citizen Kane
– How are these movies different? Explain (by researching the other film…magazine
articles, newspaper articles and professional journals)
– Why was the other movie picked? Explain. (Special effects, lighting, sequences,
themes? Etc…)
– Why are both of these movies on the top 100 list?
– What made them so similar or different?
– Did they win any similar or different awards?
– What made these two movies appear on this list?
DO NOT SIMPLY ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS ABOVE IN YOUR PAPER. THESE ARE QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER WHEN PICKING ANOTHER FILM!
You should write this paper as a compare and contrast using research to back up your thoughts and ideas.
Be sure to cite the 2 two movies and the 2 two articles (handouts) on your reference page plus any additional research you pull for your second movie!
