AGING IN MOVIES REVIEW
There is a plethora of films out there depicting various dimensions of the aging process. Despite the belly-laughing, or sometimes, tear-jerking emotions we gather from these films, we often do not stop to wonder if these depictions of various dimensions of aging are accurate…or a bunch of malarky (i.e., nonsense). For this assignment, you are tasked with watching a film, not a TV
show, of your choice that depicts any aspect of aging that has been discussed in our class. After watching the film, answer the questions below.

Wait, but how are we getting graded? Good question. I am grading your midterm similar to how I grade your “3-2-1” Post & Reply. I am looking to see that you have followed the sentence length requirements, evidenced that you have proofread your work (i.e., made little to no grammatical/spelling errors), and that your responses are well-thought out (see examples of well-thought/poorly thought-out answers on the syllabus). One aspect that I am going to pay specific attention to is correct citation of scholarly articles on #4. See the Helpful Resources
