Watch a visual “cultural form or text” related to crime, criminals, victimization, and/or reactions to crime and analyze for its mythical content and ideological effects, including how the imagery might relate to social order (“existing social relations”).

For this assignment you will watch a visual “cultural form or text” related to crime, criminals, victimization, and/or reactions to crime and analyze for its mythical content and ideological effects, including how the imagery might relate to social order (“existing social relations”).

Which cultural form you watch and analyze is up to you, so long as it is a film1 or show that includes material related to crime, criminality, criminal victimization, and/or responses to crime (broadly defined). The “object” of your analysis – i.e. what you analyze — may be the visual text as a whole, the plot line(s), particular scene(s), and/or character(s). Whatever your focus, you will present your analysis in a 5-6 page essay (a piece of writing that coheres around a core theme or thesis).
