1. Identify two or three key aesthetic elements of the film (aspects of sound, mise-enscène, cinematography, editing, or narrative structure). First, describe the element(s) as precisely as you can. Use technical terms if you know them, and if you don’t, simply be as precise with your adjectives as you can be. Second, state how the aesthetics affect the story. For example, the same story may have quite a different impact in a slow-paced film than in a fast-paced film.

2. What aspect(s) of society/culture appear powerfully in the film? How does the film reflect on this/these aspect(s)? That is, what does the film teach you or have to say about particular social or cultural conditions or events? Give evidence of specific moments in the film.

3. Discuss the genre of the film (you can define genre however you want – documentary vs. fiction, detective film vs. rom-com, children’s vs. adult film, etc.). What are the key features of the film that make you categorize the film this way? Does it seem a typical example of its genre, or quite unusual? How so? You can but do not have to discuss other films that may have influenced or been influenced by this film. 4. What kind of an audience does the film appear to have been made for? For example, does it seem to be accessible to an international audience, or does it make assumptions that the audience will have certain, specific cultural or historical knowledge? Does it speak to all ages, or is it addressed specifically to adults? Does it address an audience with a lot of institutionalized education, or a less formally educated audience? Give evidence of specific moments in the film or specific aspects of the film.
