Rationale: The film review assignment is designed to challenge you to analyze the credibility of a popular “historical” medium. Historical films make history more experiential and are often the only way that the public interact with history. As result, their historicity is a prime concern. Thus, your job is to provide the public with a historically-minded review of the plague film, The Physician. Assignment: For this assignment, you are responsible for critically viewing the movie The Physician, evaluating its historical accuracy, and writing an overall review aimed at the general movie-going public. You should use the primary sources in the Aberth primary source collection as well as any texts we’ve used in class (and lectures) to compose your review. An excellent review will contain a compelling thesis(argument) concerning the role of medicine in the Middle Ages and support your critical review of the movie with primary source evidence but still appeal to the general public.
**** use the BOOK The Black Death for John Aberth  for a minimum of two different sources from Aberth collection to support your assertions.
