The Godfather

The viewing of The Godfather is part of a Linked Learning project with your English class (with Mr. Ruffner). As you know, this course counts for A-G credit and satisfies your Visual and Performing Arts credit. One of the requirements of this is that you have a writing component built into the class. This is one part of satisfying that requirement.

Write a one to two page essay on the following topic:

Some Critics have described the Godfather as a movie about the Mafia. Others have said that it's really more about a family. Choose one side of this argument and defend it.



You will receive grades and credit for this in both my class and your English class. Here is a link to a document of Godfather shots. You will fill this out in class. Godfather Shotlist. You will turn this in attached to your essay.

The due date for the essay and shortlist is the end of next week.
