Assignment
Write a film critique featuring "The Last Truck." Critiques consist of at least six total paragraphs: Two paragraphs of summary; two paragraphs of analysis; and two paragraphs that connect the film to course material.
"Summary" summarizes the content of the film.
"Analysis" occurs when the writer engages with the substance of the film: What did the film do well? What did it not do well? What did you find convincing? Where were the gaps? Did you enjoy the film? Why or why not? Use the critique as an opportunity to think deeply about the film, its purpose, its presentation, and how it affected you.
"Connect" requires the writer to draw linkages between the film and class by citing at least two readings from the unit on economics (excluding Steger).
The film on dailymotion: The film on HBO Documentaries- The Last Truck-Closing Of A GM Plant BY AK.
Course material: Globalization, climate change, Work, Freedom, and Free Markets.
