Quick Update: Phenomenology

I'm still just trudging along through my paper. It's pretty slow going as of right now because it's actually a lot more work than I thought it would be. I have so much notes and it's hard to sift through all of them for quality material. When I went to Dr. Morris last Friday he told me about a certain approach to my paper that I think I'll definitely be using from here on out though. The strategy he recommended I look into was called a phenomenological analysis. Rather than writing a formulaic and basic essay where I touch on each director, with a phenomenological approach I'll be able to have my paper sound more like a casual conversation. And if I were someone reading something like my paper, I'd much rather have it sound like a casual conversation instead of a blasting of facts and theories to my brain. Below is a picture of Edmund Husserl, the founding father of phenomenology.
