ART FILM  MAINSTREAM FILM  HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT  
The shape of water (December 1st, 2017 – fantasy romance) 
The wizard of oz (august 25th, 1939 – musical fantasy) 
 A bug’s life (November 14th, 1998) 		The breakfast club (Feb 15, 1985 – comedy drama) 
 Love Simon (March 16th, 2018 – romance comedy)  		Battleship potemkin (December 21, 1905 – war/thriller)

 Fitzcaraldo (October 10th, 1982 – adventure drama)  Alphaville (May 5th, 1965 – Sci-Fi)  

A BUG’S LIFE – I decided to put this movie into the ‘art film’ category since it is animated and as each frame is drawn/designed, I thought it would fit the art category best. It could also, however, place in the mainstream category since the film is still popular now.

Critical score; 7/10 

-> I rated this film a 7/10, as the acting and plot of the film was good, but there was a bit too many violent scenes in the 2nd half of the film.  

Memorable scene;  

-> I’d say a memorable scene is when Arthur is told by Thomas Wayne that his mother lied to him about who his parents were once he’d followed Thomas to the bathroom of the theatre to speak to him.
