Pan's labyrinth mla citation

· Screenplays; In-Text Citations; Citing Dialogue; Works Cited Page Citations for Primary Sources Screenplays to make it a bit easier to quote; you'll still need to find the scene and put the time after the quote: Big Fish: https://johnaugust.com/downloads_ripley/big-fish.pdf Chocolat: http://www.cdouloff.com/hosting/03_screenenglish/movies/chocolat/files/Script.pdf Pan's Labyrinth: https://www.dailyscript.com/scripts/PansLabyrinthEnglishScreenplay.pdf I have pulled this information from Purdue Owl MLA and modified it, somewhat, to reflect this assignment: Time-based media sources When creating in-text citations for media that has a runtime, such as a movie or podcast, include the range of hours, minutes and seconds you plan to reference. I have put sample in-text citations for each of the films here: (Burton 00:45:55-00:50:30), (del Toro 00:02:15-00:02:35), (Hallström 01:23:15-01:25:28). How to cite dialogue between two or more people Start the quotation on a new line, with the entire quote indented ½ inch from the left margin while maintaining double-spacing. Your parenthetical citation should come after the closing punctuation mark. This trepidation can be observed in the scene between the Faun and Ofelia: FAUN: No- no- don't be afraid- I beg you!! Look!! He opens a small wicker basket and from it emerge to more FAIRIES: one BLUE, one RED. Ofelia smiles. OFELIA: My name is Ofelia. Who are you? (del Toro 00:22:12-00:22:28) However, once Ofelia becomes aware of the Faun's friendship with the fairies, she gains her confidence and seems to immediately trust the Faun. Please note that after the quote, I go back to the one inch margin to then explain the quote. DO NOT START A PARAGRAPH OR END A PARAGRAPH WITH A QUOTE! Always comment on the quote or explain the significance of the quote after presenting the reader with it. Films or Movies To emphasize specific performers or directors, begin the citation with the name of the desired performer or director, followed by the appropriate title for that person. Lucas, George, director. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Twentieth Century Fox, 1977. Chocolat will have the most information to relay for the Works Cited page citation: Hallström, Lasse, director. Robert Nelson Jacobs, screenwriter. Joanne Harris, author. Chocolat. Miramax, 2000. Information for you to build your own citations for Big Fish and Pan's Labyrinth: Big Fish: Tim Burton, director. John August, screenwriter. Pan's Labyrinth: del Toro, Guillermo, director and screenwriter You can find the rest of the necessary information to build your Works Cited page citation on the IMDb sites I have posted in the announcements.
