  1. Bin, I like that you have a "but" in your thesis--that's what I've been talking about in class, having a more analytic perspective. You may find that you need to narrow the thesis more, but you'll get a sense of that as you go. I like that you have a movie as a source--sometimes people (including me) forget that there are sources besides books and articles and websites.
