Paper #1
For this first essay I would like you to watch the film Planes, Trains, and Automobiles and consider the ways in which the two main characters communicate. Is it constructive? Destructive? Why? Does it change over time or does it remain static?
After considering these questions, I would like you to discuss the film’s two characters communication from the perspective of Perspective, Identity, and/or Emotion. Please develop a strong central argument in which you relate details from the film to concepts discussed in our textbook and class discussion.
To be clear, this is not a synopsis of the film. Any papers submitted without reference to the text or concepts from the class will be given no credit.
Movie:
