Do I put the title of a movie in quotes if I use it in my title for an essay?

Question

I am writing an essay about the film called Broken Flowers and the title to my essay is: Puzzled Yet Enlightened About Broken Flowers. Should I put it in quotes, italicize it, underline it or just leave it as is? What about if I use it in the context of my essay?

Answer 1

Within the body of your essay, use italics if you can (if you are using a word processor, for example). If writing by hand, use quotes.

For the title, then provided the movie title is on its own and there is nothing else in your essay title, there is no need to use quotes. I would use bold on a word processor, or underline it in handwriting.

Answer 2

You can use bold or italics to emphasise the title, thats all you need. and in the context of the essay use it in Bold and use an acronym such as BF to save on words.

Answer 3

In the title, it's better if you put it in quotation marks after a colon. In context, italics is the right choice.

Answer 4

Bold, underline, and use quotation marks.

Answer 5

yeah, put it in qoutes.
