Question

Extra Credit Opportunitythe Movies Industry Has Had A Complicated Rel Extra Credit Opportunitythe Movies Industry Has Had A Complicated Rel The movies industry has had a complicated relationship with television since the 1950s. Because of this, a number of films over the years have commented on television on some level, with some focusing on the production of TV and others examining the impact of TV watching. With this extra credit assignment, you have opportunity to earn some extra points by watching a feature film that is, on some level, about TV. The movie must come from the list below; after you watch the movie, answer the questions on the back of this sheet. Please use the questions as a form – although you might need to write more than size of the boxes here. Make sure to answer all of them, and be as specific as you can be. I will be posting this assignment on Blackboard, so you can use that document as a template where you can type up your answers. Keep in mind that your answers to most of the questions will involve analysis. I want to see that you are thinking about the movie and the questions on this form. This is not meant to be a research assignment; do NOT consult any sources for interpretations of the movie. (You can look at IMDB.com for basic production information, however.) This assignment is about YOUR interpretation. Keep your summary short. Don’t “review” the film; whether it was good or bad is not immediately relevant here. You might be able to get some of these movies through the library, while others can probably be watched online via Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon, or on DVD. The extra credit assignment is due on Wednesday, May 15, but you can always turn it in earlier. Only hard copies will be accepted; emailed papers will not work for this assignment. The assignment is worth up to 40 points. Films: Avalon (1990) The TV Set (2006) Network (1976) American Dreamz (2006) Anchorman (2004) Bamboozled (2000) The Front (1976) UHF (1989) Videodrome (1983)

Replace this placeholder with your full, well-developed academic paper that answers all the questions based on the film you selected from the list. Your analysis should include a brief summary of the film, discussion of the role TV plays within the narrative—whether as part of the setting, a challenge, a tool, or viewed by characters—and how it contributes to the film’s themes. Analyze what the filmmakers might be saying about TV—whether their perspective is positive, negative, or nuanced—and cite specific scenes or dialogue that illustrate this viewpoint. Ensure your discussion provides insight into the cinematic portrayal of television and its cultural implications, supported by detailed examples. Your response should be around 1000 words, properly formatted with an introduction, body, and conclusion, and include at least 10 credible references cited in APA format at the end.
