Movie Review Extra Credit
You will be given the opportunity to view some films that have historical significance for extra credit (2 points) to be tallied at the end of each 9 weeks. These films for the most part are historically accurate (some more than others), but we do not have enough time in class to watch them. These films are not limited to what may appear in the movie theaters. If you are going to watch the movies for any of the 9 weeks, please answer the questions below and turn in to me by the dates listed. Some of the movies are rated R so you need to check with your parents first (do not tell them I am requiring you to watch a rated R film, there are others on this list that are lower rated) THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS To answer the questions below please TYPE them in essay format of 200-400 words.
