1. Please view the following clips from the 1996 film version of The Crucible and select one that you would like to write about. Underneath each is the page number that it can be found in the play, along with a brief description.
2. Respond to the clip by answering the following question:
What does the passage mean? Focus on individual words and/or phrases. How does it serve to develop or enlarge the character or characters speaking it? Please focus on the text and not so much on the film-related aspects of the scene.
Your response should be no more than three sentences. Please indicate which clip you've chosen (#1, 2, etc). Keep in mind that some clips skip or omit a few words or phrases, but overall the scenes retain most if not all of the text.
