Rhetoric is defined as “the art of speaking or writing to persuade.†After watching “An introduction to logos, ethos, and pathos†and watching Blackfish (2013), how can be begin to consider that rhetoric can also be used in films?
For this initial 250-word discussion board post, I want students to address the following:
- What is Cowperthwaite trying to argue? How effective is she at making her argument and persuading you, as a viewer, to believe that argument? Explain, using concrete, clear examples from the film, why you answered the previous question the way that you did. BE SPECIFIC.
- Then, please list at least three different people Cowperthwaite interviews in the film, giving their name and title/area of expertise. What kind(s) of information do they contribute to the film? Why do you think she uses them in the film? Are they “smart†choices?
- What emotions did you feel that Cowperthwaite tried to elicit from viewers? What examples, anecdotes, or images did she present to make viewers feel those particular emotions?
