Argument essay: League of Their Own Essay.

The 1992 movie A League of Their Own shows a fictionalized version of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, which existed in the American Midwest from 1943-1954. The climax of the film comes when Dottie Hinson drops the ball during the final play at home plate in the last game of the World Series, which allows her sister, Kit Keller, to score against her and win the game. Almost 20 years after this movie first came out, people are still talking about this play and what exactly happened. You will use the uncertainty and debate inherent in this final play to help you craft a 3-4 page essay with a thesis that somehow addresses at least one of the following questions:Does Dottie drop the ball on purpose at the end of A League of Their Own?Does Dottie actually care about the game of baseball?What is the central relationship in the film?Is A League of Their Own even really Dottie’s story? The final version of the essay is worth up to 100 points. Essays will be graded on the following criteria, with the most weight being giving to the first four:A central argument or thesis that responds to one or more of the questions of the prompt to provide a focused interpretation of the movie in a way that demonstrates a relationship between ideasSupport for that argument, as seen in specific lines or scenes from the film, film elements, AND incorporation of Posnanski’s essay
