Why Love Story?


1)    What is a question about film and genre that interests you?
Why does every movie have some love story in it?

2)    Why is this question important to you? Why is it worth your study? What personal beliefs does it make you consider?
Because every movie has one and I want to know why. And I’m sure other people do too. Love and happiness.

3)    Do you have any prior assumptions about how this genre operates or about the values that the genre elevates? Explain your beliefs.
The question isn’t a specific genre? But that love and happiness are very important to life.

4)    What do you hope to learn in terms of relationships and observations of the genre and related films? You might want to throw out some examples here.
Why do all they films have this in them? Even action movies do.

5)    What are some issues that you anticipate may be problematic in the collection of data or in analyzing the genre or film?
Details of why may be hard to find.

6)    Think about the time periods of the genre, whether the genre or your films belong to the studio system period or after, consider the audience of the genre, and brainstorm the sub-genres that evolved from the mother genre. What new ideas do these considerations tell you about the genre? What new angles do you see?
My question isn’t about genre so I’m not sure how to answer this…

7)    Where do you hope to take this paper? What do you hope to learn?
I want to make a point that not all movies have to have a love story to be good… I want to know why they think that.

8)    Who do you think would find your study interesting, in addition to me? Why?
Males, because we don’t care about all the mushy stuff.

9)    Where do you think you will find the best sources to answer this question?
I honestly have no clue…

10) If your topic had a face, what would be its expression? Why?
Puzzled, because I want to know why all movies have somewhat of a love story.
