Year 13 - Small Scale Research Project Appointments

Your individual appointments to see me are on Monday during period 5.

Do not even dream of coming to the appointment without some research and a better idea of your focus for the project.

The times and ideas we had are as follows:

2.15pm - RYAN

Denzel Washington - Ethnicity / social, political, cultural studies / role and attraction as star

2.25pm - RACHEL

Will Smith - Research directors and co-stars he has had / genres / roles in true life stories / portrayal of his ethnic group

2.35pm - JENNY

Johnny Depp - Pirates of the Caribbean / Difference in roles in films for children / work with or influence of Tim Burton in forming his career

2.45pm - LUKE

Quentin Tarantino - as an auteur: what makes his works 'his'? / use of dialogue in films / violence / role of women in his films / use of actors e.g. Uma Thurman

2.55pm - LIAM (please stay awake long enough to do this research, Liam!)

Horror/Alfred Hitchcock - development of the genre up to contemporary horror films / influence of Hitchcock on horror through the years / gender roles in horror films

If I find anything that might be useful to you over the next few days I will email and/or post links or information on this blog.

See you on Monday - I hope you all enjoy the films you're going to see!

Miss Ryan x
