Anyone good with MLA citation + films...?

Question

Okay, well I'm writing an essay on the film 'The Bride Wore Red', and it has to be in MLA format. I've looked up the guidelines and apparently after you quote from a film you have to cite the film name in brackets. Fair enough, but...

I have a LOT of direct quotation - at least one every paragrah - so do I need to put in-text citation after every single quote? It's not like a book where I can put the page number, all it does is say which film it came from, and I'm only discussing this one film!

Every quotation in the entire essay is from this film, and I just think it's going to look really stupid if every time I inform the reader it's from 'The Bride Wore Red'.

So...am I supposed to put a footnote or a Note just saying 'all quotations are from "The Bride Wore Red"' or something?

Please help, I want to get it right but I'm so confused :S

Answer 2

If it's all from the same movie, then no, you don't. If you put something in quotation marks, the reader will make the assumption that it is from the movie. If you have the scenes numbers, then you can cite those, otherwise don't bother. Just make sure to introduce your quote, for example, (and I'm not familiar with the movie, so forgive me for pulling something out of the blue)

While revealing the truth about her years as a street urchin, Martha laments that, "Not all people are born equal."

Then go on to discuss the quote.

Hope that helps.
