Bonus Point Opportunity:
Consider the themes that are apparent in The Crucible, and think of a movie that has similar themes. For example, think of a movie in which a person or group of people are falsely accused (mind you, that is just one possible theme). The movie you suggest should not be about witches; rather, it should simply contain similar themes. Think of current movies. I’m trying to get you to connect “then” to “now”, like Miller did with The Crucible to McCarthyism.
Once you have decided on a movie that has similar themes to The Crucible, analyze the comparison. Tell me about the characters and plot of your suggested movie, and how they embody similar themes in The Crucible. The more detailed your explanations are, the more bonus points you will receive! Keep in mind that this is bonus; you need to work hard in order to earn the points. Content, organization, and attention to grammar are important. You ultimately need to convince me that the movie you selected should be shown as a follow-up to reading the play.
