Analysis Of I Wanna Be Loved By You

She Loves Me takes place in the 1930s and is an enchanted romantic musical play about two people falling in love with one another. The two main actors, Mr. Nowack and Ms. Balash, work together in a saloon and from the very beginning they could never stand one another’s presence. One reason why they could not get along is that Mr. Nowack thought Ms. Balash was arrogant while she believed he was selfish and parsimonious. If they were in the same room with one another for too long they would cause some dramatic scene. Every time they were in the saloon working together they would have all the attention from the customers and or other employees because of their nonstop bickering arguments. As the play went on the audience began to realize that these two actors each had a pen pal and inside the letters, they would express their passion for one another. Shortly after they started writing the letters the audience was able to detect that Mr. Nowack and Ms. Balash were falling in love with one another even though they believe they hated each other. They were falling in love not by appearance but by what was being addressed in the weekly letters they received. Appearance does not play a role in love it's about someone’s character and that is demonstrated throughout the entire play. The two actors started realizing that they were falling for each other when they would sing iconic songs such as: “She Loves Me”, “Will He Like Me”, and “Vanilla Ice Cream”. Further, into the play, Mr.

The majority of the film’s sound is derived exclusively from diegetic speech and sound effects that bolster its overall realism. However, the first instance of nondiegetic sound occurs in the opening credits when a male narrator provides rudimentary background information on the “Doomsday Device”. This voice-over narration stimulates the suspense of the narrative while providing the spectator with unrestricted information by revealing more insight than the characters know at this point. The ensuing credits sequence incorporates the song “Try a Little Tenderness” which communicates the idea that men should be tender with their women. The romantic song is cunningly integrated with the image of two B-52 bombers connecting, as one refuels the other. The sequence is suggestive of romance and the physical act of love. Following Dr. Strangelove’s infamous speech at the conclusion of the film, a montage of nuclear bombs detonating is shown with Vera Lynn’s

This song sets the mood as it is an acoustic love song. The song changes when the loves first make physical contact in the elevator and becomes more intense which increases the passion between the two lovers. This music continues throughout the rest of the scene. Before Maria and Tony meet the other characters are dancing at the disco, the music is jazzy and upbeat, this is also set in a major key. When the lovers meet the music changes as the characters fade out.

She tries to relate to sex through popular music that romanticizes relationships and life. The short reveals how it affects Connie when she is listening to a popular radio station, “…bathed in a glow of slow-pulsed joy that seemed to rise mysteriously out of the music itself and lay languidly about the airless little room” (Oates 424). Additionally, Connie felt her date with Eddie was similar to “the way it was in movies and promised in songs”(Oates 424). She felt she was living the dream and was beginning to relate to this sexualized, romantic media. In Marie Mitchell and Olesen Urbanski’s literary review of the story, they state “the recurring music then, while ostensibly innocuous realistic detail, is in fact, the vehicle of Connie's seduction and because of its intangibility, not immediately recognizable as such” (1). However, Arnold Friend was quick to remind her of her young age and innocence at the end of the story.

Lighting and sound are another two key factors that can be manipulated to heighten the dramatic value of the scene. With the opening of the first sequence, the musical motif that accompanies Abigail throughout the film begins to play as she is introduced. It follows her emotions, the tempo increasing as she hurries to ready herself and creep out of the house. As the forest comes into view, the eerie surroundings are complemented by the change in music.

“Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory.” Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was born september 15, 1977 in Enugu, Nigeria. She is a novelist, short story writer, and nonfiction writer who has published more than 15 novels. The novelist has also a myriad of awards such as Reader's Digest Author of the Year Award, MacArthur Foundation Genius Grant, and the National Book Critics Circle Award. In this short story, “To My One Love”, the reader is given a setting on Nigeria in the 1990s where there has been an abundance of “Operations”, or robberies. At this time Chimamanda is in university and has taken a fancy to a young man named Nnamdi- unfortunately, he died because of these operations. Chimamanda wrote

He is able to use these parts to manipulate the audience’s emotions. The music playing from the car is an on-screen sound. As the man gets attacked, the volume increases. The sound helps intensify the scene that has been created by the film’s visual elements. The audience then subconsciously forms ideas, opinions, and feelings about what they are seeing. The viewers develop scared feelings as the scene intensifies to the happy upbeat tune. The increasing volume of the cheery song reflects the violence and the sinisterness of the scene. The song stops with the slamming of the car’s driver-side door as the man is abducted. There is a moment of silence and then a new song abruptly entered the silent scene. The music is non-diegetic and is an offscreen sound. The song is screechy, high pitched, and jagged sounding at first, continuing the anxious and scared mood. The song shifts into a sort of soulful hymn. The tone shifts along with the song. The audience begins to feel relieved and relaxes to the peaceful song.

This is achieved through the use of pan shots, combined with non-diegetic sounds. In the scene where Brandy was reading her diary, a pan shot was used to show that she was living in a poor neighbourhood and the negative conditions associated with it. When her dad aggressively pulled her mum through the room and out of the house she described the violence the family experience at the hands of her dad. A mid shot was used to express the anger in the dad's face but also the tears and screaming in her mum’s face. This focuses the audience's attention on the domestic violence that Brandy experiences. The director portrays this through Brandy’s voice over dialogue, “ I watched my mother being half beaten to death…..” This is a powerful use of non diegetic sound combined with a pan shot. This allows the audience to see that the whole family was living in a small house with one bedroom. The reason why the director combines the panning effect with sound is to have a stronger effect and draw stronger emotions from the audience. The use of voiceover and non diegetic sounds create a stronger and more realistic mood for the audience. The use of voiceover during the scene of her mum getting violently pulled and pushed is mixed with panning shots to also show the reaction of the rest of the family as they witnessed the violence. Through the use of these techniques the director encourages audience to think about and emotionally understand what a lot of young people in abusive families go through and the struggles which make them who they are

Later on in the day, after a field trip to the local planetarium, Jim meets a group of kids that are troublemakers and want to fight with him. As a conversation begins, music also begins in the background, yet quickly changes when the gang wants trouble. The music becomes fast, louder, and more suspenseful. The style of mickeymousing, "type of score [that] uses music as a literal equivalent to the image" (Giannetti, 231), was also used in this same scene. Jim and the character of Buzz are fighting each other with knives, and at every jab of the knife the music changes and becomes more dramatic and even more suspenseful. It is said that, "music can serve as a kind of overture to suggest the mood or spirit of the film as a whole" (Giannetti, 233). Later on, James Dean's character is asking his father for advice, and the music becomes quiet, slow and mysterious. Another scene where the score plays a vital role in the atmosphere is during an argument with Jim and his parents. Jim and his father are yelling, and when Jim grabs his father as if to hit him, the music turns scary and very intense.

The film’s treatment of gender and sexuality connects to course readings that are studied in our class. Elizabeth Lunbeck’s essay, Hysteria: The Revolt of the “Good Girl”, there are two main themes that correspond with Grease. The first theme is that women are hypersexual creatures that seduce men. This theme is only considered normal to men

The male gaze puts his fantasy onto the female figure, which is styled, in a unique sort of way. In this traditional exhibitionist, role women are continuously being looked at and their appearance is delivered to the male gaze in such a way as a strong visual and erotic impact and provides male desire. The presence of a woman in a normal narrative film is the key of the movie. However, the key of the narrative film works against the development of the story-line and stops the action due to the erotic gaze. Butt Boetticher said: “What counts is what the heroine provokes, or rather what she represents. She is the one, or rather the love or fear she inspires in the hero, or else the concern he feels for her, who makes him act the way he does. In herself the woman has not the slightest importance”.

Some Like It Hot is an American screwball comedy film directed by Billy Wilder and featuring Marilyn Monroe as Sugar, Tony Curtis as Joe, and Jack Lemon as Jerry. Joe and Jerry are struggling musicians who accidentally witness a mob hit and become targets. To hide from the mob, they flee the state as members of a traveling women’s band, where further complications set in. They quickly become besotted with the lead singer, Sugar, who in unable to recognize that her band mates are really men masquerading as women.

The instances of mistaken identity are related to many disguises in the play. Viola, who puts on male attire, begins to have everyone believe that she is a man. By

In the poem, The Love song, written by T.S. Elliot, J Alfred Prufrock is a man who is very lonely and insecure. He goes throughout his life wishing for a change, but never stepping up to the plate and actually making a change. The title of the poem portrays to the reader that the poem is going to be full of love and romance. The reader soon found out later that the poem is just the opposite from the title, a sad, lonesome man who is not only lacking love, but also lacking self confidence and self esteem.

The presentation of women on screen is another highlighted issue in many of the gathered sources. Because men were ultimately in control of what went on the screen much of what the audience perceived were women from the male imagination or fantasy. Bernard Beck elaborates in his article Where the Boys Are: The Contender and other Movies about Women in a Man’s World that, “…women have been used to dress up a male story or motivate a male character” (Beck 15). Women were often insignificant and trivial characters. Although, Kathe Davis disagrees to a point. In her article, Davis offers a dissonant opinion to the fore-mentioned insignificance of the female character. She instead describes many female characters as “predators,” and analyzes the roles of lead women in three prominent films of the nineteenth century. In each film, she finds parallels and similarities of cases of “female emasculation” and instances where “women are turned into objects of male desire” (Davis 47-48). Davis does not perceive female characters as being insignificant, just stripped of their power and misrepresented. She discusses how females of power are often portrayed as crazy
