As part of your work on audiences and producers (FS2) you should watch at least one film a week. You should try and link your viewing be it by director, actor or genre.
You should then write a reflective review for the film, the types of things you should include are:
- The name of the film?
- Who directed the film?
- Who starred in the film? What impact did these actors have on the film?
- Where did you watch the film? e.g. at home, in the cinema etc...
- Who did you watch the film with?
- What format was the film in? e.g. DVD, download, screened on TV etc...
You should also reflect on what impact these factors had on your enjoyment of the film. You can also include a short passage on how good or otherwise you thought the film was. You can include images and links to youtube clips if you wish.
Important - please label the review with your name e.g. barney oram

I'm Not There is Todd Haynes film about Bob Dylan, I watched this film at the Arts Picturehouse with my father who is a massive Dylan fan. What is interesting about this film is the use of Actors as each performer plays Dylan at a different stage of his life. Perhaps the most interesting performance is that of Cate Blanchett who plays Dylan as he was from 1965-66. The narrative structure of this film is non linear and has what some critics have described as a poetic strucutre, though I am not sure about this I am sure that if you have an interest in Dylan it is a film that would reward repeated viewings. The films cinematography is interesting and mixes colour and balck and white footage well.
