Scene Analysis

In the Vietnam songs, all of the songs were made as protest songs against war. These songs sent a message that war is not something that we as humans should be doing and that we shouldn't have to solve our problems by killing each other. The American society felt the same way. Why are we doing this? This is not what we should be doing as humans, and this was partly why the American people didn't really welcome veterans back from war. They thought that what they were doing was "wrong" and it's not really solving anything, it's only taking lives. In the first song, "War" by Edwin Starr, there is a very clear message that war is good for nothing. Life is to short to spend fighting in wars. War is nothing but a heart-breaker and it shatters young

Jordan Peele’s uses sound to his complete advantage in his thriller Get Out. The film sound in Get Out creates the tone of the scenes, advances the plot, and develop the theme of racism.

In the movie Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele, one peculiar scene takes place outside in the backyard of the Armitage’s house during a party, where the topic of tribalism is present. The party Chris Washington, Rose Armitage’s boyfriend, is attending takes place outside where it is spacious, bright, and accented by a rich forest surrounding the property, which provides a home to Rose’s family, and their ‘around-the-home-maids’, such as Logan, which is prevalent in this scene. The scene starts off by Chris going up to Logan and stating “good to see another brother ‘round here.” Once the two are about to engage in conversation, Logan’s wife Philomena, interrupts and lets Walter know other company is asking about him and that he needs to go chat with the other company. Before Logan leaves, Chris offers him a fist bump, but is surprised by Logan grabbing his fist instead of bumping it back, inferring that he is behaving as the other white folks surrounding him. Shortly after leaving, Logan then showcases himself to the white people. This scene represents partly what David Berreby’s article, “It Takes a Tribe”, was about: humans naturally group together stationed on common interests.

The most important question I feel was asked in this film was the one that Peter Davis asked in one of his interviews to Walt Rostow the Aide to Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. The question was "why did they need us there?" In other words why did we have to join into this war in Vietnam, what sort of gain was in it for our country getting into another time and economic consuming war. An answer was given through a short clip of Lyndon Johnson stating "the answer is simple there is none else who can do

In the opening sequence of the film ‘the blind side’ the director has used several different techniques to establish setting, main characters, relationship, contrast, theme and flash back.

Almost all wars are unpopular with the homeland but a need for our country to remain safe and free. Both Vietnam and our involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan caused many young Americans to die fighting for their country. Anytime we have people in harms way it makes for many people questioning why we went to war. This was demonstrated throughout many scenes in the movie. Whether you are for or against the war the outcome in all confrontation has resulted in America being a safer place and our freedom has never been

In Weekend the long take is effective in conveying the mood, setting, and context for the scene. Throughout, the scene it provides different aspects and techniques as a way of delivering visual messages to its viewers. As I continued to watch the whole clip, I started to feel myself getting impatient just like I do in traffic jams because of the way it is filmed. The outcome of the long take differs greatly in a way of how it makes viewers feel. As well as understanding what the character is going through in a set amount of time.

Gattaca is a soft Sci Fi movie that is centered around one main character, and his story, rather than the technology featured in the film. Vincent dreams to go to space, and with the help of Jerome, Vincent can reach his goal. As one watchers Gattaca many aspects of film are used and the combination of sound, shot selections, and lighting creates the movie world we know as Gattaca. The sounds of Gattaca are for the most part silenced, what one would think to be loud is some what dumbed down, or muffled, This makes the mise en scene darker, and mysterious.

Twin Peaks uses breaks of conventions of mise-en-scene frequently. In episode eight of season two, several figures of the police force are lined up and the camera has a steady angle for minutes . Gordon Cole walks from person to person, shaking their hands and thanking them for their great work. The scene looks unnatural and the steady camera reinforces this impression. It looks like someone filmed a boss from a company thanking his employees, which is what actually is happening: The director is thanking his actors for good work. The scene is unnecessary for the plot and does not relate to anything else during the story which is also an indicator that through the use of an unconventional mise-en-scene, a scene which parallel

The film is a reflection on the controversial views towards the Vietnam War showing the horror and brutality of war, painting Vietnam as a nightmarish

The camera singles out the fundamental character in numerous scenes, while different characters stay out of main interest. Considering over the character's vast minutes in the film, it is possible to assume that cinematography in the film The Graduate depends on selective focus. For instance, the associated scene: Benjamin turns out to be exceptionally uneasy because Mrs. Robinson, the spouse of his dad's partner, lets him know that she finds him very attractive and wants to indulge in an affair with him. Because of the compelling camera work, sound and music, the emotional state of the primary character is shown appropriately.

The Vietnam film is a specific sub-genre of the conventional Hollywood war film that arose as a result of the 1960s counter culture. According to Elliot Stegall’s article Ideological, Dystopic, and Antimythopoetic Formations of Masculinity in the Vietnam War Film many American war films depicted the glorification of war and emphasized the concept of American masculinity (Stegall). Previous to the Vietnam period, Hollywood war films stuck to contemporary tropes. These films often re-enact the idea of good versus evil in which the male hero of the film triumphantly fights for their country against a vilified enemy; thus reinforcing the American ideology of conquering the frontier (Schweitzer 67). The hollywood war films are often enjoyable
