Writing an extended commentary on La Vie d’Adèle in the style of Australia’s Metro Magazine: www.metromagazine.com.au (Links to an external site.) Here are two samples of published work in Metro Magazine:
– Metro Magazine: Night Cries Download Metro Magazine: Night Cries
– Metro Magazine: The Wailing Download Metro Magazine: The Wailing
It is an opportunity to explore creative ways of writing about and responding to film, and may include humour, personal reflections, polemics, and so on.
The commentary must demonstrate critical engagement with at least four subject readings (required or extended) from Weeks 8-11 Global Cinema Spring 2020. To improve the visual presentation, you may choose to include APA 7th citations as Footnotes or Endnotes, rather than in-text, but the in-text citation format remains the same (Author, Year, p. #).
This is an entirely open-ended commentary, and it submissions can focus on any cinematic element (or combination of elements), as long as these allow the commentary to demonstrate an understanding of scholarly readings. The commentary may also provide context for the film, whether historical (e.g. other films in the genre, or on the same theme), political (e.g. controversies around the film’s production or reception), cultural (e.g. social worlds that the film seeks to describe or critique), or all three, depending on the film chosen. Quotes from the filmmaker or actors may also be included
