Movie Analysis
You should link the book to one key theme we have studied in class. I will be looking for an in-depth analysis of the theme as it is portrayed in the movie, rather than a superficial mention of topics that are present. In order to make that evidently clear, I ask that you underline each topic you introduce. (see the paragraph below for an example of how to underline)
For example, in some of the movies, a theory of deviance may be heavily featured – you could choose to discuss how the deviance is portrayed in the movie and compare it to the data we learned on violence in the class, from chapter 7 in our textbook. You could look into the storyline for a portrayal of an act that can be understood within a particular theory, and then describe how the movie used that concept.
Or perhaps, you could see how the issue of class is portrayed in the movie , discussing the various examples of status and roles, or how each character embodies a particular class status.
The paper must have a clear thesis statement.
Some topics that might be addressed in the paper:
Labeling theory
strain theory
gender identity
social identity
norms
deviance
This is a paper for a sociology class.
The movie to analyze is Border (2018 swedish film)
The number of sources is not a must
