You should select a director who was active (directed more than 3
movies) during the time period of 1950 – 2000. In your term paper, give
me the basic details of the director’s life and career. Identify some of
the director’s most important films. What honors and awards did the
director receive? Provide a sampling of critical opinion about the
director’s work (i.e. film reviews or articles). View at least two films by your director and comment on them (one of them can be a film you would have watch previously for the class). Do not summarize any plots. Write
about how this director used the following in these films: Editing
(montage), Sound and Music, Cinematography, Special Camera Work (steady
cam, hand held, optical effects), Special Effects (this can include
stunt work).
