English I - Homework - 4/13 and 4/14

Tonight for homework you need to write the first draft of your movie review. Your rough draft should come to class with you on Thursday/Friday. Your draft needs to have the following elements:

1. Your introduction paragraph should grab the reader's attention, compare the film to the play in a few sentences, and then state your thesis. Your thesis should answer the question, "Did you like the film? Why?"
2. Your second paragraph should summarize the main events of the movie. Use your viewing guide for help. Don't give too much away - like the ending or other climactic events.
3. The last paragraph should be the support of your opinion with details from the movie. Bring it back to your argument.
4. Overall, remember to be interesting and honest.

Your draft should be no more than 300 words - a page and a half double spaced. I look forward to seeing what you think of O.
