DUE TUESDAY:
MULTI-GENRE Response to the Billy the Kid stories we've seen and read.
You may use the movie, the above review, and the documentary (on this site) to help you. CITE YOUR SOURCES pls.
TOTAL LENGTH: 350-400 words.
MUST INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING, but you can put these pieces in any order you want. Your challenge? To make the 3 pieces all fit together in a way that works.
1. Poem that somehow refers to both the MOVIE and the BOOK.
2. Paragraph response to this prompt: both the MOVIE and the BOOK are difficult to follow, sometimes even incomprehensible. Which is the superior work of art? Use specific examples of evidence to prove your claim. This should be ONE PARAGRAPH in length.
3. Based on the book, movie, and DOCUMENTARY, write a ONE PARAGRAPH response to this prompt: WHO WAS BILLY THE KID, REALLY? Was he a hero, an outlaw, a lost boy, a lunatic, some combination of the above? Why do you think the kid grew into such a legend of the West? Again, use specific examples as evidence to prove your claim.
