Watch the clip from ET at the link below, then describe and discuss in detail the (a) temporal, (b) spatial, (c) rhythmic, and (d) graphic qualities of the editing (this will include discussing techniques of continuity editing at work in the scene, but do not limit yourself to discussing continuity editing only). Please do not simply point out the techniques you see at work in the editing. Analyze those techniques, identifying and describing their narrative and emotional functions.

2. According to David Bordwell art films motivate their narratives by two principles: realism (both objective and subjective verisimilitude, as he calls it) and authorial expressivity. Demonstrate your comprehensive knowledge of Bordwell’s essay, and your own creative imagination, by reimagining The Apartment as an art film. In particular, how would you restructure the plot, how would you alter the main characters and their motivations (Fran, Baxter, Sheldrake), and how would you end the story? Be very, very specific about the changes you would make and be very, very specific about why you would make those changes (this will entail linking all of your proposed changes to Bordwell’s notions of realism and authorial expressivity). SOME ADVICE ABOUT TAKING THE EXAM €¢ Do not write blow-by-blow imitations of my lectures or your TA’s posts. €¢ Remember that this is an exam and that as with any exam your TA cannot help you with the

answers. You can ask your TA about any material that has so far been covered in the course, and your TA can help to clarify your understanding of the exam questions, but your TA cannot tell you when you have arrived at the correct answer to a question. So please do not ask your TA to do that for you. Still, you may ask your TA to read a draft of your exam answers so that he/she can help you with issues of clarity and let you know if you have skipped over any topics in your answers that you should probably cover. But beyond this you must devise and compose your own responses to the above questions. €¢ Do not lift text verbatim from Film Art without acknowledging that you are quoting from the book and do not casually borrow material from the Internet or other sources. Quotes or ideas paraphrased from other work must be properly cited. Turnitin flags all instances of plagiarism and, as it says in the syllabus, answers that are plagiarized in whole or in part will receive zero credit. €¢ Finally, do not copy from each other or from former students. As it also says in the syllabus, anyone caught cheating from another student, past or present, will automatically fail the course.
