“Trace a particular Hollywood actor or actress in a series of films, analyzing how (s)he was marketed and received in different kinds of roles. An example is Cathy Klaprat’s article which offers an excellent model for this kind of analysis.”

“Using your archival work as evidence, please write a paper in which you contextualize and advance an original argument about the topic. By contextualize, I mean that some component of your argument needs to explore how the film was marketed and/or received or understood at the time. Papers that simply analyze a film while ignoring historical context will not be acceptable.”
