detail and filmmaking quality that we have discussed in class. This film should be 

something you enjoy.

the manner that you read other reviewers analyzing the films that they watched.

- How did you feel when you watched the film? Excited, tired, anxious 

- Were you able to 

willingly suspend your disbelief

? Why or why not? 

- How did the events of the drama and the goals and desires of the protagonist 

effect you and your experience with the film emotionally, intellectually, 

physically? 

- Were you able to cross into the plain of Verisimilitude within the film? Why or 

why not?

your chosen film.
