A fragment of life in Hollywood is being spread over the screen of the Music Hall in Sunset Boulevard. Utilizing as the premise of their forthcoming, burning dramatization a shameful circumstance including a blurred, maturing quiet screen star and a destitute, pessimistic youthful scriptwriter, Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder (with an aid from D. M. Marshman, Jr.) have composed an effective story of the aspirations and disappointments that join to make life in the cardboard city so entrancing to the outside world.

The bright red fire truck sped through the streets filled with uniform, pale grey colored houses. The wheels skidded to a stop in front of a house that looked just like the others, as Beatty violently pulled the brake backwards. The men went tumbling backwards, as if the truck had just hit a brick wall in front of them.

Before Willow was allowed the chance to reply, a series of rapid footsteps grew louder. Both girls turned around to see two guards barging into the room, pointing their shock batons directly at them. “We’re here for her,” one of them announced, gesturing to Clarke. They slowly stood up from the ground, Willow shaking her head.

I enjoyed both the 1961 movie adaptation of A Raisin in the Sun starring Sidney Poiter since it was intriguing, action-packed and stayed loyal to the book even with some slight deviations from the book. In the book, the Younger’s are only seen in their apartment, but the movie adds different settings. The book only mentions Walter’s work life and social life with his friend Bobo and Willy, but the movie included scenes of Walter at work, and at the bar with his friends. I think that the additional scenes were effective since it helps better understand Walter. In Act one Scene one of the book, Walter’s hatred and reluctance to go to work towards his job seems childish, but with the movie’s additional scenes, depicts Walter’s job as meaningless. Also in the book, Walter’s decision to trust Willy seems arbitrary since in Act

"Let go of me or so help me, I will scream" she said as I laughed

As un-athletic as Kane was, he excelled at one school sport. Dodgeball. He dove past Gort and tumbled under the GMC. Gort spun and slammed the bat into the ground with a loud thunk a split second after Kane jerked his leg under. Watching Gort’s feet in the blue glow, he rolled back and forth, avoiding the blind jabs until the aggressor tired from the attack and stepped back. Before the slashes resumed, Kane pulled his all-purpose wrench from a pocket and slid forward under the engine. He jabbed the tool into the darkness where the oil plug belonged, hoping to find the protruding nut.

The Cinema of Attractions Early Film, Its Spectator and the Avant-Garde has many concepts that relate to the novel, The Sun Also Rises. In this project, Tom Gunning’s ideas will be helpful to expound the male’s perspective of women. There are plenty of scenes that are not requisite for the narrative of the novel, however, it has been added to seek attention from the audience. There was unnecessary hatred shown through mockery towards the Jews in this novel. This can be seen in situations where Robert Cohn when to university and got neglected, and when the narrator says, “He has a hard, Jewish, stubborn steak”. This creates racial conflictions and brings attention towards the audience. Tom Gunning elucidates how women can be a center of attraction

“Just leave me” came the shaky mumbled voice came from between them “hand me over, they’ll leave you alone you can get away” he spat the rock onto the ground, Phoenix letting go of him to swoop it up.

In chapter two of The Cultures of American Film, the main focus is the establishment of studios. As demand for films rose in the early 1900’s, production companies needed to expand; this lead to the creation of large scale studios.

Sunset Boulevard (Wilder 1950) explores the intermingling of public and private realms, puncturing the illusion of the former and unveiling the grim and often disturbing reality of the latter. By delving into the personal delusions of its characters and showing the devastation caused by disrupting those fantasies, the film provides not only a commentary on the industry of which it is a product but also a shared anxiety about the corrupting influence of external perception. Narrated by a dead man, centering on a recluse tortured by her own former stardom, and concerning a once-promising director who refuses to believe his greatest star could ever be forgotten, the work dissects a multitude of illusory folds to reveal an ultimately

As he dragged himself out of the pit, he attempted a run to the truck. The keys were found on the dashboard, now he had time to check for injuries. A slash was found across his chest, he swiftly bandaged the injury and drove through what was left of the city; this was one week later…

Several platoons were sweeping the airport shooting the dead as they came into range. An Engineer company, followed by a rifle company raced across the runways on an unknown mission. Another company of Engineers were setting up a fence fifty feet from where the original had collapsed. The smell of the pile of dead had many soldiers pause in their work to vomit. The fence crew was watched over by two companies of riflemen, although no mobile dead had approached the opening. At the same time, mechanics climbed over the
