- Lindsay's, about a play called Boy Gets Girl. Look for her thesis, and how the first statements of her paragraphs, even read by themselves, reveal how her ideas fit together. Lots of evidence in the piece, too—look for how she uses it. She's writing to an audience somewhat familiar with the play, as you should, too, but even for those unfamiliar, we can still understand her argument and enough about the play, thanks to the context and explanations she provides.
- Igor's, about the same play. Same here: watch how he establishes a context and sets up his thesis, which, just like Lindsay's, is at the opener's end. Watch how clearly he establishes his body paragraph points (and again, how we can read just those statements, even, and still get a sense of his entire argument). He's really good at integrating and commenting on his evidence, too, of which he has plenty.
You can also look to both of these examples for MLA, and how to both punctuate citations as well as handle longer quotes.
Finally, here's a link to the shooting script for the film, which can help you remember things or look for evidence. But, the actual film is your real source—keep in mind that the shooting script might feature things that weren't in the final cut of the film. Too, there are visual aspects of the film (the cinematography, the editing) that could serve as evidence, too.
