Term Paper Requirements
• Grading
The term paper itself counts for 35% of your course grade. You will be graded on your mastery of the
relevant facts and arguments, your originality in developing analysis, and the effective way your paper is
organized and written. Specifically, originality = 2 points, analysis = 8 points (i.e., 4 points each film),
writing = 15 points (i.e., legitimate title = 1 point, 4 listed key words = 2 points, structure = 2 points,
transition = 2 points, grammar = 2 points, spelling = 2 points, in-text reference = 2, etc.), use of 4 sources
= 10 points (i.e., logical incorporation = 1.5 points each, complete citation = 1 point each).
• Content
First, your paper must be comparative; namely, choose to compare 2 of these films: Plunder of Peach
and Plum, It’s My Day Off, Ermo, and Suzhou River. You may focus on a similar theme, a shared critical
problem, or a combination of some of them.
Second, your paper must be researched; namely, citing what critics have said about the directors and/or
films you are discussing and indicating how you respond to their interpretations. You must use at least 4
print sources assigned in the syllabus. Each article in an edited book counts as one source, but merely
listing sources without incorporating them in analysis does not make your paper a researched one.
Third, your paper must be critical; namely, examining texts in detail and engaging different arguments in
relation to the issues you are addressing. This also means that you have to maintain your own line of
arguments while moving between primary and secondary sources. A summary of narrative plot or
biographic information is descriptive rather than critical.
• Form
This is an individual assignment. Do not work on it jointly as you might study together for exams or
team projects, because two papers similar to each other will likely lower grades for both papers. Do not
submit a paper that you have submitted or are writing for any other class.
The paper must be written in your words, not paraphrased out of a secondary source or plagiarize from
any source You must give full bibliographical citations at the end of your paper on a separate page
(exclusive of the page limit), and make sure your style is consistent throughout the paper.
Papers must be typed, double-spaced (not 1.5 spaced), with one-inch or larger margins on all four sides
of the page. The length is limited to 3 pages, excluding references. Most students do better writing a
carefully edited three-page paper than writing a longer paper that is sloppy. Papers not meeting these
specifications will be returned without grading. Faulty spelling, grammar, punctuation, and format style
will cost you points, so proof-read your writing carefully.
