Answer 1

The best inference supported by the review is that past films by Paul Windberg were not well-regarded, and the quality of 'Hangs a Tale' is surprisingly better.

Step-by-step explanation:

The details from the text imply that Paul Windberg's other films have not been considered very good. The text mentions that people had given up on his work, suggesting that his previous films did not meet their expectations. However, the latest film, 'There Hangs a Tale,' is reported to have a great plot, beautiful setting, and superb acting, which implies that the previous films did not possess these qualities

The inference best supported by the details in the text is that Paul Windberg's other films have not been considered very good. Since the student claims that those who had given up on Mr. Windberg's work will be pleasantly surprised by 'Hangs a Tale', it suggests that his past work might not have met expectations. The content loaded in the student's report emphasizes an exciting plot, beautiful setting, and superb acting, implying that this film contrasts with previous, perhaps less impressive, works.
