HISTORIA Y CIENCIAS SOCIALES: May 2013

1. Write a movie review of the Historical Movie “The Messenger” based on Joan of Arch’s History.
Consider the ideas below.
1. Begin your review with a statement about the time period and location in which the movie was set. Follow that opening sentence with one or two other pieces of information about the historical setting, and then transition into talking about the movie by saying something like: "Director Sally Salson uses this setting as the backdrop for her newly released historical romance," followed by the name of the movie.
2. Discuss the plot and characters in the film in terms of not only how effective they are but also how well they reflect the time period. For example, you might comment on how legitimate it seems for a particular event during the film to have happened during that particular era.
3. Because the setting and costuming are crucial to the atmosphere and realism of a historical movie, spend some time in your review discussing each of these. Talk about whether the film seemed to totally transport you to a 16th-century English village or whether you merely felt transported to a movie set. In addition to a brief discussion of the costuming, you could mention how well the hairstyles and makeup contributed or detracted from the historical illusion.
4. Finish giving you opinion and how telling how you consider this movie is faithful to the historical period where it unfolds.
