film analysis with connections to reading articles

Some examples of questions you might consider:
How are Duke Ellington and Fredi Washington portrayed in the film? How does their portrayal compare or contrast to that of the workers in the film? What historical trends do those portrayals relate to?
What is the role of alcohol in the film? How does it relate to Prohibition?
What is the role of music and dance in the film? How do those artistic expressions relateto a wider culture of creativity in the 1920s? What historical trends spurred that culture ofcreativity?
What is the meaning of the spaces represented in the film (Duke’s apartment, the CottonClub) as they relate to New York City in the 1920s
These are only some jumping off points, and you may find other compelling questions after watching the film, so by no means do you have to adhere to these questions. In sum, use the film as a central point of your essay, while incorporating elements of the supporting material as a way to draw out your analysis, support your argument, and interrogate key historical themes and issues covered in that section
