Must have access to  Crash (2005), a film directed by Paul Haggis

This assignment provides the opportunity to explore a theme or movie type across a variety of mediums (film, fiction, empirical work).  Using the topic themes developed in class, use one of the films listed below to compare, contrast, and elaborate issues raised during the course (violence, deterrence, punishment, rational choice, gender and race etc.).  For example, many films examine law enforcement, or morality tales, or victims/heroes, or how ones social position (race, class, gender, sexuality) affects their social world, but perhaps in different ways.  In thinking about your analysis, you will need to examine and incorporate your notes (and thinking) based on the course films, readings, and questions for discussion.  The paper is worth 30 points of your total course grade and should be FOUR typed pages. 

Note:  I will stop reading after four pages of text.  Therefore, this means that you must be concise with your analysis.  This assignment does NOT ask you to be a movie critic and review the movies (or cut-and-paste them from the web). Rather, you must integrate course material; failure to do so will result in a failing paper.

For the Integration Paper:
