Instructions: Words: 1250 Words. You must select a film on a different Summer Games than the Olympics you wrote about in Paper 1. Before beginning the assignment, please review again the “Guidelines for Working with Primary Sources” document posted in Blackboard under Papers. This is a separate document that provides more information about interpreting primary source materials. Think of yourself as a detective as you watch the film. Take notes. Think critically. You likely will need to pause occasionally to write down your thoughts, and you also will want to rewind and watch certain sections of the film more than once. The paper you will write is 4-6 pages in length. Think strategically about what you want to include, and make every word count. Do not try to summarize the entire film because this is a short paper.

Formatting Guidelines: The essay should be typed, with one-inch margins, in Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced, and 4-6 pages in length. A heading (single-spaced) should include the assignment description, your name, and the date. A title should also appear at the top of the first page. Finally, the pages should be numbered. Citation Guidelines: Internal citations should be used and should include an abbreviated film title. You may also include the time, but this is not required. For example (Atlanta 1996) or (Atlanta 1996, 23:31). Do not use block quotations because this is a short paper. Quotations should be no longer than 3 lines or 1-2 sentences. Citations are required when ideas are paraphrased as well as when sentences are quoted directly. If you find you are paraphrasing a lot, which is fine and to be expected, you may use a mass citation at the end of the paragraph to cover the entire paragraph. For example (Atlanta 1996) or (Atlanta 1996, 23:31-34:10). If you cite some of the other assigned materials in our course for the writing of this paper, please include a Works Cited page.
