Your first undergraduate review, Ksavera - job done! It's clear how you've used your 'Contexts' research to enhance your understanding of the film - good. I think there's a level of detail missing here - opportunities to expand your analysis and push your writing beyond some of these more surface observations. That said, this is review no 1, so lots more opportunities to enrich your style and grow your confidences.
Hi Casper, Well done on getting your first review out there! As Phil has mentioned, you need to really analysis the films, and one way to do that is to look at what other people have written about it. This is why we ask you to include at least 3 quotes from published sources (which you haven't done in this review). Using quotes gives you the opportunity to really discuss the themes and ideas that underpin the film and the cinematography. Take the advice forward, and we look forward to reading your next review!
