The West Side Story” from 1961

Need a Critique written for the Movie “The West Side Story” from 1961.
Write about one of the following 1960s films: West Side Story, A Hard Day’s Night, Bonnie and Clyde, The Graduate, or Easy Rider.
Thoroughly cover the seven following areas in the order listed. Cite accurate and detailed illustrations from the film viewed to substantiate your viewpoints. Assume that the reader has not watched the film selected. Answer parts III through VII using at least one well-developed, explicit paragraph.
I. List the following: complete title of film viewed, director/s of film viewed, year of initial release, major stars in film, and film genre.
II. Grab the reader’s attention by composing a fitting, descriptive title for your paper. You can summarize the content to follow in the title. Or, you can devise a clever title connected to something discussed in the body of your paper. The title serves the same purpose as a newspaper headline; it invites the reader to review what follows.
III. In one paragraph, summarize the essence of the film viewed IN YOUR OWN WORDS. What is the film about-its theme/s?
IV. Precisely how is music used in the film viewed? What type/s of music is/are employed? How is the music effective or ineffective, and why?
V. What characteristics of the movie mark it as a record of the 1960s? Even if the film represents an earlier time frame (as with Bonnie and Clyde), how can you view parts of the film’s action as a record of the decade in which it was made?
VI. How does the film demonstrate the rebelliousness of youth? How does the movie show youth rejecting the establishment, show different generations/those of different ages at odds, or other such struggles?
VII. Sum up your overall impressions of the film. Would you recommend that others view it? Would you view it again? Why or why not? Be specific with your reasoning.FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THIS TOPIC CLICK HERE
