TASK: FILM REVIEW & REPORT
You could choose from the following 2 options; format free; use Chicago Manual of Style for annotations
1) Write a 300-word film review about an Asian film you have recently watched (please offer date of viewing/cinema theater’s name etc.); could be one from/for our class too;
2) write a 300-word report on a film event in town=Nagoya (like a film festival, special screening event etc.), please also offer details of the event.
Please make sure you talk to the teacher regarding other options; also check our blog for Ma Ran’s updates on events in/outside of Nagoya. A documentary screening event would take place on Nov 2/Friday/5pm@131.
Reference for your film review could be this one that I shared earlier in this semester:
Corrigan, Timothy. A Short Guide to Writing About Film. 9th. ed. New York: Longman 2014
Nagoya’s Mini-Theaters (arthouse/second-round; mostly with NO English-subtitle when showing Japanese films)
1. Nagoya Cinematique 名古屋シネマテーク (http://cineaste.jp/) : they have a great collection of film magazines too (in English, French and Japanese and more); a tiny library from which you could access lots of unthinkable documents. Strongly recommend.
4.Slightly more comfortable cinemas for viewing new art films
Due Date: Dec 28th (Thursday), 5pm/Earlier submission is possible
Please submit the Journal to the lecturer’s email address maran@nagoya-u.jp with the subject “Take Home Project ACH”. The Word file should contain “ACH” + the student’s name in its file name. I’d send out confirmation email once your assignment is received. Late submission is not accepted unless emergency happens.
