Homework due March 7th

Choose any film released this year. Find out the distributor and track the distribution of the film. Did it have a blanket release or a staggered release? Was it distributed digitally? Was there a teaser campaign? Either through trailers or posters? Analyse the poster/trailer – who are they targetting? How? Where was the premiereheld? Did the film go to festivals? Did it receive any other publicity? Was there any merchandising attached to the film? Include any other information you can find related to the distribution of the film.
 
The films I mentioned that you will need to watch by March 7th are "The Dark Knight" and "This is England". If you can watch the tv spin-off/sequel "This is England '86" too, that'd be no harm (or any other films directed by Shane Meadows, especially "Dead Man's Shoes"). "Batman Begins" and any other Christopher Nolan films would be helpful too, particularly films he has made for Warner Bros, like Inception and the Prestige.
