...cinematic version? helpppp? Exact guideline from teahcer: For your 750-word (minimum, not including quotations) analytical essay, identify a theme you would expect to see elaborated in a cinematic version of Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon. In the first body paragraph(s), discuss how you see this theme developed in the novel, being sure to make specific references to the text. In the remainder of the essay (2-4 paragraphs, depending on how you choose to construct your argument), your task is to present a persuasive case for the relative success of either film-maker’s (Huston’s or Wilder’s) production in handling your chosen theme.
