In-Text Citation
(Patel)
According to the MLA Style website, the way you cite a film depends on what you are exploring. According to the MLA Style website, "Films are collaborative works, so how you cite them depends on the focus of your discussion. If you are focusing on the director’s choices, begin your works-cited-list entry with the director’s name. If you are discussing various aspects of the film—such as the story, the actor’s performances, and the director’s choices—begin your entry with the film’s title. As always, key your in-text citation to the first element of the entry."
