Watch La Haine (1995) or 8 (1963) on Kanopy. 

Then you will submit a two-page reflection paper (APA style) explaining how editing and sound designfunction in those films. You must analyze at least two scenes as examples. Be sure to use specific details and relate to your textbook and/or external sources. If you don’t cite Movies and Meaning, I will deduct points. 

You may not use other films instead of La Haine or 8 1/2 unless as points of comparison. 

Do not use terms like “personally,” “I think,” “I feel.” Treat reflections as if they were very short essays. Don’t evaluate these films (“8 1/2 is a masterpiece with great performances”). Avoid a casual, chatty, gossipy tone. 

Finally, your abstracts should mention in the first sentence what arguments you’ll make about one of the two films you’ve chosen. 

if you do chose to help I will give you accessto the book so you can use it
