Midterm Prompt
Salt of the Earth and On the Waterfront were made the same
year and both depict socio-political struggles related to unions. However, they approach the issues in completely different ways, both in content and in form. Compare
and contrast each film’s socio-political message as well as their allegorical meanings, focusing on how production methods and the status of the writers and directors
of each film reflect these messages and meanings. Be sure to use 2-3 specific scenes from each film to support your analysis.
-You are expected to use outside sources to support your argument, which may or may not include George Orwell’s “Notes on Nationalism,” Wikipedia does NOT count as an
outside source.
-Also recommended is “Naming Names” by Saul Navasky, published 1980.
