Writing Homework Help

For this assignment you are going to watch a movie from the list provided below (List is uploaded down below), do some secondary and primary research, and then create a detailed outline and a works cited page. The purpose of this assignment is to improve your reading comprehension, researching, and writing skills. Here is how I recommend you proceed:

1. Pick a movie from the list below, preferably one that you haven’t seen. 
2. Watch the movie, observe and take notes. Try to find things in the film that you find interesting, curious, or questionable.
3. Research the movie for historical accuracy. Luckily the internet makes this part, very easy! Try googling the title of your film + historical accuracy.
4. Find sources. Use the internet to find both primary (min. 1) and secondary sources (min. 3). Try googling the title of your film + primary source.
5. Organize your thoughts. Start with a rough simple outline, pick 3 points your found interesting from your movie to research and discuss.
6. Organize your research. What evidence (or examples) do you want to use to prove your thesis (or opinion)? Is your film historically accurate?
7. Expand your outline. Compare the film to your research, and include information and examples from your research and the movie (as evidence).
8. Create a work cited page. List all your sources used in your research, including the movie and make sure to highlight your primary source.
