Potential Research Essay


Titanic has been my all time favorite movie for as long as I can remember, and that’s why I am considering using it as my research topic for my melodrama research paper. I remember having sleepovers with my older cousins and be given no choice but to watch titanic every time. My love for it grew to as much as theirs and I eventually ended up stealing the duo VCR pack for myself.  For my research paper I plan on talking about the different melodramatic aspects such as the lighting, the music, and the effect on the audience. The music plays a big part in this movie; sometimes being the thing that brings out my emotions for certain parts even more drastically than they would have been without it. Being a story about two lovers from two completely different social class levels, and set aside from the main conflict of the ship sinking, conflict arose often and with the death of a protagonist Jack, the movie was even more melodramatic. Seeing this show more times than I can count, it never gets old and I am excited to be able to write a paper about it and see what this paper can bring about.
