Sup, internet? I've been pretty busy the last while with school and that.
Anyways, I have a narrative analysis paper due in film next week and I need you to help me decide!
Wild Strawberries
+less people writing about it gives me an edge.
+quieter film. ie, won’t get caught up in descriptive claims or be tempted to go off on tangents about representations of anxieties of masculinity, machismo and homoeroticism in American film. Also won’t end up using phrases like “OMFG, remember the scene where his ear gets sliced off, CRAZY SHIT, guys!” in academic writing.
-Not sure how many times I will be able to watch it within a week due to availability
-Not sure how many times I will be able to watch it within a week due to existentialist themes
Reservoir Dogs
+I know I have lots to say about it
-I know a lot of what I have to say about it does not fit into analysis of narrative conve ention and structure
+I have more familiarity with it
-you need to reserve the view library’s copy because our whole film class is writing about it
-our whole film class is writing about it, and I’ve always noticed in classes like this that the text the least people chose, the higher the marks on projects about that text are? IDK
I know, I have an exciting life!
PS; So far my best friend at school is the homeless guy who hangs out on campus sometimes and also likes to talk to pidgeons.
PPS: My Bio partner is named Twinky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's her legal name! I think she's from Malaysia or something. omg, happiest day of my life
