Cold War Project

Your Task: Summarize how film makers portrayed the Cold War. Show how they portrayed the conflict between the U.S and U.S.S.R and if there was bias. (3-5 Pages)
Rubric - Will be based on the AP Central FRQ Rubric - The one we have been using all year.
Please make sure you use examples from the films to prove your point. Propoganda and Warmography are what you are looking for as examples.
