Okay, so writing this paper is actually coming along well! After
getting some pointers on how to fix things from Dr. Hanrahan, Leah, and Austin
I have become confident in finishing this paper. While writing the paper I
noticed tat other people have deeper analysis in their essays. I started to
feel discouraged. My argument is very simple, that there is a longing for
connection in both the characters and the cast. I know that I can make a well
written paper, but I’m worried that it isn't deep enough of an analysis. I don’t
know. Sorry about this kind of whiny rant. All in all I am getting my shit done
and my room is clean and organized, and that makes me happy. So I will keep
working on this paper and when it is done I will feel proud. What problems have
you guys had with writing/ revising your papers? I really would love to hear!!!
Have a great weekend!!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat's your movie again, Sabrina?
ReplyDeleteI've been having issues incorporating scenes into the movie, because I don't want to make it seem like a review. I think your analysis is a good one. A lot of these movies have multiple points for analysis. I don't think yours is cliche at all. You might bring something out that wasn't addressed before. You might add new meaning to this idea. I think it will be a great paper, and if your confident in it, the writing and ideas in your paper are probably just as confident which makes for a good paper.
ReplyDeleteSabrina: I don't think it's cliched. (I would have told you if I did!) I do think, like we talked about, you want to make sure you show us the ways your idea runs through the film--in ways that we might not have realized. Thus, you need good close readings of scenes. That's the key.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your paper Sabrina. Simple is not bad by any means. Although you argue a simple point, it's meaningful & you make good connections throughout your paper. I do agree with Dr. Hanrahan, just do some close reading! You have a great paper :-)
