Analysis Of ' The Movie ' Georgina '

Lauren Greenfield’s 2012 documentary The Queen of Versailles offers an entertaining and thought provoking look at what subjects a documentary can cover as the film follows billionaires David and Jacqueline Siegel and their family as they navigate the 2008 economic crisis and attempt to build a mansion inspired by Versailles. Though the premise of the film is fairly straightforward, on a deeper level the film touches upon such ideas as the unattainability of the “American Dream,” the correlation between wealth and happiness, and family perseverance in the face of adversity. However, one key theme of the film serves to discredit the outside assumption that wealthy individuals lead flawless happy lives, and are in someway elevated beyond typical humanity, not experiencing hardships in the same manner as middle class society. In reality, as the film demonstrates, the wealthy are as flawed and as deeply human as any other class, capable of experiencing hardships and unhappiness regardless of material wealth. To further explore how the film achieves its theme, one must first have a firm understanding of the documentary form and how certain events in the film highlight the theme, which is explored in the following paragraphs .

Another example of Susanna’s poor friend choices was Lisa who is viewed as the antagonist in the book, is diagnosed as a sociopath, which leads her to getting into many fights, dangerous situations, and causes her to treat others poorly. Throughout the book she is extremely manipulative towards the other women at McLean, and created an unhealthy hierarchy. She is very kind at first, until she does not get her way, then her selfish and explosive side comes out. Lisa uses her cool and cocky attitude to persuade Susanna into many dangerous situations. While being pressured by Lisa, Susanna stopped taking her medication prescribed to her by her psychiatrist and eventually escaped McLean together for a few days. Susanna was engaging in so many dangerous activities and her behavior only worsened her situation. But Susanna was also scared of Lisa because of her sinister side, which is why it took Susanna to part ways and focus on her recovery. Their friendship is very self-destructive to both, and causes many complications for their

The mentally ill patient relives experiences of the event, such as having distressing images and memories, upsetting dreams, or flashbacks. After undertaking a punch in the stomach from a pimp named Maurice, Holden is at a high stress level which triggers a connection to

Sarah got Bella 's text and went down stairs to let her in for their sleepover. They went up to Sarah 's bedroom. "So is there any boys you have a crush on Bella?" Asked Sarah giggling. Bella nervously responded,

Though there are often set social constructs in high school formed through a need to conform, the actions of the students are in reality the reason the psychological hierarchy and norms persist. Students rely on stereotyping and prejudices in order to take away power from some and empower others. Once the groups have been formed through the appraisal of superficial appearance, athletic ability, and social charisma they are relatively set in stone and have set a protocol for social interactions. The prejudices originate from three distinct perspectives, motivational, economic and cognitive. Motivational perspective states that humans form prejudices once they are motivated to view their own ingroup more favorably than outgroups. In the movie Heathers, the popular

In class we viewed documentary titled Girlhood, the film surrounded two teenage girls named Megan and Shanae. Both of the girls have been in the system for years, Megan has been in and out of juvenile detention centers and foster homes for years and is incarcerated this time for attacking one of the other youth at her foster home with a box cutter. Shanae was incarcerated at the tender age of 11 for stabbing a “friend” to death during a fight. The film focuses on getting to know the girls personalities, family history, the journey of their rehabilitation and overall how they ended up in the situations that they are currently in. It also captures the girls in a different light (their funny personalities, them being hopeful, intelligent, and just needing support) instead of just portraying them as juvenile criminals who were just terrible people.

At the beginning of the film/movie, it started with the ant colony picking and providing food for the grasshoppers. They operate by traditional agricultural labor. This film/movie shows an illustration of an economy that relies on the workers to do the labor because there is a scarcity of resources so they need to maintain the amount of food for the colony. This economy is based on a traditionalist economy. They stick to the way things have been for quite some time. There was never any thought of doing anything new because that could cause a huge amount of risk when it comes disrupting the way things have been smoothly running. The ants in the movie run/work off a rank system. Depending on their rank depends on what they do. There is the queen

Ava had found herself in more than a few situations that had left her cheeks bright red with embarrassment and shame, but this topped all of them by far. It was bad enough that her bronzed, nubile body was marred by the grime and dirt that seemed to infest every spot upon the floor of the locker room. In fact, it was bad enough that her rival, who had just beat and humiliated her in front of an audience, was now being pleased by Ava’s tongue. However, the worst part of it all, as she lay there with her tongue ‘tween Aida’s folds and her breasts being toyed with like they were stress balls, was that she was enjoying it.

(Part 1) Thelma & Louise received mix responses from film critics when it first came out. The responses to the film were largely based on preconceived notions about how women operate in the criminal justice system. Obviously, this movie subverted a lot of these presumptions. The first issue was gender. Women had not been perceived as outlaws until this film. The whole idea of a woman in the criminal justice system did not embody what the movie portrayed. Specifically, after Thelma was sexually assaulted and Harlan was shot, the women come to the conclusion that going to the police won’t help them. They do not have faith the male dominated criminal justice system will look past Thelma’s drinking, dancing, and flirting with Harlan. In the article “Outlaw Women: An Essay on Thelma & Louise”, Elizabeth Spelman and Martha Minow said “Louise and Thelma both hear and reject the echo of societal conversations about blaming women who get raped because ‘they asked for it.’” Louise immediately acknowledges this stereotype against them which is the fact if a woman was raped, the law will view it like “she had it coming”. In other words, she was provocative in some way that established consent. Another issue concerning gender was the one of outlaw women. Normally, the traditional outlaw film contains a white male that we as the audience view as virtuous. While most probably favored what Thelma and Louise were doing, there were some points where the deviancy might have been too much.

She meets many interesting individuals during her stay. These people include Polly, a burn victim, Daisy, a lover and stasher of chicken carcasses, Lisa, the leader and sickest patient of them all, Alice, a minor character who has a short mental breakdown, and Valerie, a young nurse who is trusted by all of the girls. Mangold’s adaptation of the book is definitely a change from Kaysen’s true experiences. The movie has a chronological plot line, unlike the book; however, there are many differences and additions to the movie that distort the message the book is trying to convey. The book is about Susanna’s experiences, finding her inner-self, and in turn getting

For Susanna, her attempt at suicide and being self destructive has been just one of the diagnosis behind borderline personality disorder. Due to Susanna feeling that nothing in her life was in her own control, she used the ultimate power of being able to take her own life. She acted out to express what she was feeling inside, and to show that she does have power over herself. After her suicide attempt, her parents sent her to go see her father's friend who is a psychologist, where she showed the behaviors of completely being out of touch with the reality that she tried to kill herself, and was completely suspicious of his allegations towards her. Thus, Susanna's view of herself is very unstable, by her unsurety of what exactly she wants

To give a proper analysis of "The Grand Budapest Hotel", it is necessary to understand the several layers through which the story is told. The film begins with a monologue from the narrator (presumably in the present day) describing to the audience what it is to be a storyteller. He then proceeds to give an exact account of how he, a writer, came to meet and have dinner with an old gentleman named Zero Mustafa when he was staying at Grand Budapest during its "decline into shabbiness." The body of the film is then presented from Zero 's perspective during the course of an elaborate dinner, as he tells our narrator how he came to own the Grand Budapest. The storyteller seems to be an omnipotent paradigm of the film, and Wes Anderson seems to be encouraging people to tell the story of others. As stated by the narrator at the end of his opening monologue: "Of he who tells the story of many, many stories will be told." "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is the story of relationships; the relationship between Gustave and Zero, and the relationship between the Grand Budapest itself and the characters that inhabit it the relationship between storyteller and audience.

The Great Gatsby is a movie set in the 1920’s. The main character Nick Carraway lives next to the mysterious Jay Gatsby. Throughout the movie you experience the roaring 20’s first hand. They take you to the lavish countryside, through the struggling “valley of ashes”, into the bustling cites, and down into the bootlegging speakeasies. Gatsby is a secretive man and no one knows the truth about him. By the end of the film you find out his past and his secrets are revealed to us by Nick. Nick was like Gatsby’s best friend through the film. Nick was like a middle man between Gatsby and Daisy. Daisy Buchanan was a woman who lived, with her husband Tom, across the bay from Gatsby. Tom had been sleeping around behind Daisy’s back and nick was the only one who knew who it was although everyone suspected he was. Although there are many characters to follow the main one was Gatsby his life was the main purpose of the film.

Throughout this year, I’ve ready numerous bodies of text varying from poems, plays, novels, and essays, which were all meaningful literary pieces with profound influence on pertinent topics as well as controversial ones. These literary pieces, alongside the work of Miranda July, an author who best represents my current generation (millennials), aided in unveiling the universal theme: reality is dictated by your perception. This paper will discuss the texts read and analyzed throughout my English class, as well as explore any similarities between the overarching theme and Miranda July.
