It is crucial that you connect the two films to one another by comparing and contrasting their themes to develop a strong, well- supported argument. Cite instances in the films themselves to support your argument. Make sure that your essay has a clear thesis and specific examples that demonstrate your claims. Only use elements from the plot sparingly to support your thesis. Your ideas and insights should form the core of your paper.
Your essay should go somewhere. That is, it should prove something. Enlighten me.
No plot outlines. I have absolutely no interest in a cursory retelling of the story. Assume that I have seen the film numerous times. Work will be graded down for poor grammar and spelling errors. Your writing should be clear, concise and to the point. It should have impact and punch. You should carefully explore and prove your thesis.
Concentrate on one clearly defined argument:
State your thesis clearly in the first paragraph
Prove your thesis in the body of the essay
Sum up in the final paragraph.
Cite concrete examples from specific scenes to prove your thesis.
Your thesis should express one central argument.
