• Explain genre theory and, using Chapter 4 of the text as a reference, thoroughly describe the conventions and attributes of your selected
genre.

• Identify a feature-length film that fits this genre and provide a basic summary of the movie. As you develop this summary, remember the
differences between a film's story and a film's plot and how these differences can lead to the inclusion of genre elements.

• Interpret at least two genre conventions exhibited in your chosen feature-length film that help classify it in the selected genre. Be sure to
provide a specific example of each convention (e.g., a particular scene or plot component).

• Provide an example of a third convention from your chosen feature-length film and explain how this convention expands the boundaries of the specified genre.

Your paper should be organized around a thesis statement that focuses on how your chosen feature- length film both aligns with and expands upon your chosen genre.
