This subject report is listed under Film in the 2017 examination archive. The catalogue session is November 2017. The information below helps you identify the document before opening the complete PDF.

A file is not automatically suitable for your current syllabus simply because its subject name matches.

For coursework research, read this document as a reference rather than a template to submit. Notice how the question, evidence and explanation connect. If a paired commentary or subject report is available, compare it with the original work instead of assuming a polished essay received a particular mark. Historical examples may belong to an earlier assessment framework.

Weaker papers were often the result of working backwards, and building an argument based on the availability of secondary research materials. Often in these cases, the student showed little insight into the film and the argument reproduced what had already been said about the film by others . Weaker candidates tended to pick topics that were more literary in nature, or use the films as a leaping off point to talk about broader sociological issues instead of writing an essay focused on Film itself.
