Ari Week 7

One major thing I want to make sure I have control of is unity. I don’t mean to say my paper is not unified, but I do want to make sure all of my points flow together smoothly due to the wider range of topics discussed. I still feel everything I said was pertinent to the discussion of Interstellar, but just making sure the level of interconnection among points while maintaining the distinctiveness of my arguments is a goal for me.

Additionally, I want to make sure my pacing is correct, and that I am spending time on what I need to talk about most while spending less on parts that don’t need as much elaboration. Again, I am not necessarily saying that my paper is particularly troubled with this, but from the point of view of an outside reader this could always be the case and thus something I would want to watch out for. As far as this goes, I also want to make sure I elaborated enough on parts of the argument that are most pertinent to the thesis. Since this is a film paper about myth, I tried to find a balance between arguing for the existence of myth within the film and what it was trying to say while still holding my thesis as the ultimate point of argument, but I want to see how this holds up to someone else.

I want to try and rework my conclusion as it was a little short due to me running out of space. A lot of what it said was a little insubstantial in my opinion due to the space constraint and so I would like to see firstly how it should be restructured if it needs to be and secondly what earlier parts of my paper I should cut out in order to make the final paragraph fit.
