Discuss the development of melodrama in the
cinema from ?The Birth of a Nation? into the mid-1930s. Analyze in specific
terms and examples at least three films for your essay. You may discuss such
elements as the narrative structures of melodrama, subjects, acting, the
ideological burdens that melodramas carry, or filming style. If you don?t use
Linda Williams?s definition and description of the workings of melodrama, or if
you continue to think that melodrama is a genre, you?re dead in the water.
