300 Word Movie Review Due Monday, April 12th!

I would like to thank you in advance for your patience and attention during Friday's brief viewing of Lord of the Flies. As the sub should have mentioned, you are to write a 300 word movie review. This has also been written on the "Agenda Board" since Wednesday. In your discussion of the movie you are to write what you think of the movie in your best Gene Shalitesque way as well as discuss the tone. I would like for you to consider how the use of music, character interactions, and overall design of the film creates a different tone than Golding does in the novel through his use of diction, syntax, and organization.

Be sure to proofread your TYPED paper. . .this is a FINAL draft!

Good luck, we are almost there!!!

Mr. Funk
