reflective writing compared to published review: the hunting ground

Link to the article I will be discussing is here.

This article was able to convey most of the film with to the point writing style, as well as giving compliments to the writer-director (Kirby Dick) and others involved in the documentary. They paid more attention towards the Title IX complaint with Andrea Pino and Annie Clark. Also, they had made some assumptions about what some things meant in the film, for example, when they were describing the scene about the gray haired man talking over the graduating music saying, "what happens in college stays in college." They made an assumption about what it truly meant with the gray haired man saying that. The article brought in other articles bringing in more statistics on sexual assaults.

In my writing for this documentary, I was definitely more opinion based on my description of the movie and talked more towards the scenes that riled up large reaction from me. I didn't focus on writing about the statistics that were shown, and I didn't dive too deep into the Title IX issue. My writing felt like I was more putting my thoughts out into words, while the article was aimed like it was talking to someone else. I didn't bring in other resources; I just wrote out what I was feeling after the film.
