-You're welcome to write about a wide range of things in your papers, including war-related or crime-related films on our syllabus, war-related or crime-related films that aren't on our syllabus, war-related or crime-related TV shows (including military recruiting commercials or commercials related to law enforcement), online war-related or crime-related videos, and/or war-related or crime-related video games (many of which have become very much much like movies over the last decade or so). You're also welcome to think about what is often referred to as media criticism, including analyses of war-related or crime-related film/TV/video advertising. You'll note that the example papers cover a pretty wide range of subjects, including feature films, documentaries, music videos, and video games. One of the papers is a reprint (rather than the original version that I graded and wrote a bunch of comments on), hence
Films
and books are a representation of what happens in real life. Reading books
allows people to get an image of their daily lives. Issues such as war and
crime are a normal and expected part of society. The Lord of Discipline is one
such film that represents the things that happen in our lives. It is based on
the life of Will McLean, a young man that worked in the military. He happened
to be forced to join the army, which was against his wishes. He had an English
major and a basketball scholarship (Schaeffer
34). He was not interested in the military career and only got into it
due to respect for his father. Ideally, incidences of joining the military and
getting into careers that one does not love are common, as people often want to
appreciate their parents. He had a good position in the army and was highly
appreciated by his seniors. The discrimination in the institute was displeasing
and went ahead to bring a lot of challenges to the students.
