Movies
Choose two films of your choice not screened on this unit and compare the directorial visions expressed in them.
Your two films should be linked in one of the following four ways (you must make it entirely clear at the beginning of your assignment which you have chosen):
director (i.e. both films are by the same director)
content (both films are versions of the same content – e.g. two adaptations of the same novel by two different directors)
theme (both films deal with what is identifiably the same theme)
contributor (i.e. two films sharing a contributor who is not the director, e.g. star, screenwriter, cinematographer, composer, editor, etc.)
