Part III: “Is it true?” (1 well-developed paragraph)
**In this section of the review you will analyze and interpret how the themes and conflict(s) of the film help you as a viewer to understand how believable the story is. While you have watched a work of fiction, you are looking for the essential truth of the story in that as a classic story, the film has survived the test of time and is still considered relevant/important today. Another way to consider whether the story is “true” or believable is to ask yourself the question: “How does the story sound true today given what is happening in the world?”
Part IV: “What of it?” (1 well-developed paragraph)
**In this final section of the review you will discuss how the story is significant to you and then why the story is significant at all. Remember, if the film is a classic film it must be important. You will also explain in this section how you have been “enlightened” by watching this film. Explain finally how the film moves you or fails to move you (i.e., did you like it?).
