  1. The following is what needs to be done to ensure the blog is an A grade:
    1. Directors section needs examples of films, images, and a couple of lines on what it is you like about the director.
    2. Film styles need examples and images or clips.
    3. Film analysis, personal insight needed, a line on why you like the film.
    4. 3 stories need to be posted and analysed.
    Please find me if any of this is unclear or you'd like any extra help.
