Representation - final word (for now)

Check out this BBC documentary about how the southern states of the USA have been represented, re-represented and mis-represented in Hollywood Cinema. There's not a lot of close analysis, but it gives an excellent overview into hos regional identity (probably the hardest of the seven areas to talk about) is built up through moving images. Note Rich Hall's argument throughout the piece; his terminology is of a very high level. Well worth watching to give you an idea about how you could construct your own argument - boosting EAA marks.
