Reasons for Film Choices
You must comment on why you have chosen your films in relation to your title.
To do this you need to identify how the film relates to your area of investigation.
For example:
FILMS
Item 1: Edward Scissorhands (Fox, US, 1990, Dir: Tim Burton). Very useful as it has all the markers of the new gothic genre on display, and also has a clear relationship with Burton's early films and his later ones.
Item 2: The Crow (Entertainment/Most/Pressman, US, 1994, Dir: Alex Proyas). The genre was still in cult territory here. and this shows in the comic book feel. Development of genre markers and influence of Burton is clear. Useful, but could have easily been one of several other films in this place.
