Choose one of the film assignments from this semester that you liked the most. Develop a HISTORICAL perspective and position regarding the issues and events presented in the film. Explain how Hollywood dealt with the historical accuracy or inaccuracies of the story, and could you perceive why those artistic liberties were taken. Did the liberties taken better present the issues or did they cloud them just for the sake of story-telling flow? I am asking you to analyze the historical voracity of the work, and I want you to tell me does it hurt the perspective or help present the perspective of the era?
Your paper must be at least 1500 words but no more than 1800 words.

Paper Guidelines
A)A formal history paper must have a strong introduction and clear thesis. Your introduction must concisely and clearly explain what your paper is about. The thesis is the stated central argument around which your paper is based. The goal of the paper will be to convince the reader of the truth of your argument, so it is absolutely necessary that the reader knows what that argument is.
B)A historical paper must provide clear analysis of its evidence, revealing and explaining to the reader the information that proves its point(s). Once you have decided on an argument or position, you must then go about proving it. You cannot merely tell the reader that what you argue is true; you must show your reader what you argue is true. Make sure that every assertion is backed by evidence. Leave out material that does not matter with regards to your thesis. Use judiciously selected quotes from your source(s) to show exactly why you are arguing your points.
C)An essay should be logical in its organization at every level. Make sure that sentences make sense and contribute to the overall argument of the paper. Make sure that adjacent sentences relate to one another. Each paragraph should focus on one idea or topic. Like sentences, paragraphs should flow from one to the next with meaningful transitions. The entire construction of the paper should be working in an orderly fashion to build support for your thesis.
You will need to revise your paper to make sure that it is well-organized. Making an outline either before or after you have written it might help. A second draft (and third) will improve your paper, make your instructor happier, and result in a better grade.
You may use ANY sources in your paper (please note that all sources must be properly cited).
Important notes on this assignment:
*Your introduction and/or thesis statement should address the overarching themes of your answer to the regional issue.
*Your thesis statement is extremely important and worth a significant portion of your overall paper grade. Make sure you take a position and have an argument. Be decisive on your view!
