Most importantly is that you identify a situation of hegemonic struggle that you see in the movie and that you use the terms resistance and incorporation to describe how that hegemonic struggle plays out. Remember, be specific!
Choose a situation of hegemonic struggle you see happening in culture today. The situation you identify may be from movies, music, the internet, sports, social media, or some other area of cultural expression. For example, you may identify how there's a resistance movement today for those who want to watch movies in some other venue than a traditional streaming service or in theatres and you may identify how movie companies are trying to neutralize that resistance through incorporation. Or you may identify how a particular genre of music, or a particular musical act, is trying to resist the mainstream music model and how they may be incorporated or not into that model. Or you may identify how certain sports figures are trying to go against the mainstream politics of their sport and how the sport is trying to incorporate them back into the mainstream fold. There are innumerable examples to choose from. The important thing is you choose one you can be specific about and that you use the terms of hegemony, hegemonic struggle and resistance and incorporation.

Requirements
• 1.5 to 2 pages, double-spaced, typed
• No title page
• You don't need to cite the movie, as it's a common source we're all using, and therefore, one with copyright information I can easily access. However, if you use sources beyond the movie (which you don't have to do), please cite them using either APA or MLA format.
