While watching the movie I took notes, highlighting certain parts and themes that I would like to focus on. I also wrote down quotes and specific scenes that I knew I would use as evidence to support my details. For my rough draft I just typed the paper like it was my final draft. Even though this was not my final draft I brought it to class and used peer reviews and the teacher's input to revise my paper. I did end up waiting until the night it was due to finish the final draft, but I didn't have that many revisions to do and the pressure of the paper being due the next day helped me to come up with a good final product on which I received a good grade.

POSTING #1
Last semester for my english 103 class I wrote a paper critiquing a movie that we watched in class, Dr. Strangelove. The movie was an old classic comedy focuses around the atom bomb controversy that happened during WWII times. The object of the assignment was to write a paper critiquing the movie based on content, relevance, plot, theme, characters, and overall "watchability".
