John Williams Films for Consideration

For your final film evaluation, you may select a listed film from Ridley Scott, John Williams or Peter Jackson. This evaluation is due by April 18 (11:59 pm). I will not accept late evaluations for this particular assignment. Follow the guidelines and rubric we’ve established throughout this semester. If you select a movie featuring John Williams’ score – you must write at least one paragraph focusing on the score, sound, and silence and the impact they play.
