My Primary Source is of the official trailer for the movie Gladiator. It runs around a minute and a half long.
The secondary sources I plan on using thus far are a movie review about the movie, the book "The Colosseum" by Keith Hopkins and Mary Beard, and some journal article I still am yet to find.
Using these sources to expand my Primary Source Analysis should be fairly simple. I believe my PSA had too many different views of how the trailer portrayed/delivered different things, and with these SSA pieces I believe I can narrow down on what I think the trailer is really saying/how it's saying it. The novel I chose should help me understand what the colloseums of that day mean in todays age. Also, the review should give me ideas of how some other individual saw the trailer, and further my understanding of what was shown. In the end, I should have a more concrete idea of what I think the reader should see in the trailer.
