This post assignment is rather open-ended. In at least two fully-developed paragraphs, I would like you to reflect on a moment or scene in the film Paris is Burning that you found particularly provocative, problematic, eye-opening, or just plain interesting.
What is it about this scene that caught your attention? Are you unsettled by this scene? Are you empowered? Are you confused? Are you distressed? Are you entertained? How do you feel about how this queer subculture is represented in this documentary? Did you find it controversial, like so many people often do? Did you have a different reaction altogether?
Whatever you choose to address, be sure to describe the scene, analyze it, and explain your reaction. I would also like you to include the specific minutes in the film in which your selected scene takes place!
Please complete your post by Tuesday at 5 pm.
