For this essay, you will need to recall your copious note taking from our viewing of Sean Penns Into the Wild film. Create a strong interpretive or analytical thesis. Provide details from the film to illustrate and support your claim. Guide the reader carefully. Be sure you are making a point and illustrating and supporting it. Are you making an argument about characterization, theme, plot, underlying ideology?
Option C: Consider the special, collaborative circumstances that led to Sean Penns film. How was his interpretation of Chriss story shaped by Krakauers telling of the story? How does the film draw upon author Jon Krakauers work? How does this film build upon the foundation of the textual version?
