“Steel Magnolias” is a story about the close-knit relationships between six eccentric Southern women living in a small town in Louisiana. The film has a home spun, unpretentious feel to it.

Singing in the Rain and A Clockwork Orange are both Classical Hollywood films. However, singing in the Rain closely follows what classical Hollywood film is supposed to be and A Clockwork Orange definitely tests the idea. Classical Hollywood Cinema is a type of traditional studio based style of making films in both the sound and silent periods. The directors of these types of films want you to simply watch and not worry about why the characters are doing what they’re doing. They want you to enjoy what you’re watching. They are also filmed with a sort of structure in the beginning the characters are all introduced to the viewers. There are then complications or conflict added to the plot. Then the resolution occurs where the conflict of the film has a confrontation and the protagonist ways his or her options. Finally, all major conflicts and issues in the film are resolved and generally the protagonist lives happily ever after. While the protagonists live happily ever after the antagonists of the films are punished from their actions throughout the film.

This is a criticism of Moonlight, a film directed by Barry Jenkins. It is a coming-of-age story, telling the journey of a young gay black man named Chiron. Through linear character development the film follows a young Chiron from adolescence into adulthood while growing up with alpha males in Miamis black ghettos. The Story is told in three parts, with a different actor playing the lead role in each section: a young Chiron named “Little”, as a teen named “Chiron”, and an adult named “Black”. Despite a compelling lead performance by Mahershala Ali and Naomie Harris, and its great soundtrack, Moonlight falls flat and never gets out of the shadow of its typical cliche plot, all the while, the film continued to never overcome the obstacle of

The movie Before Night Falls directed by Julian Schnabel offers viewers a glimpse of how the homosexual community in Cuba was being mistreated under Fidel Castro’s regime. The true story is told in the eyes of Cuban poet Reinaldo Arenas. The film depicts Arenas life in Cuba and all of the awful experiences that he had to deal with as a homosexual. Eventually he was arrested for false accusations of being a molester, however, he was actually under arrest for being a homosexual. Between the 1930s and 1990s, the Communist Cuba was abusive to the LGBT community as shown in their actions of harassment towards homosexuals, imprisoning the homosexuals, or sending them to re-education camps.

Australia’s Identity plays an important part in the stereotypes identified in the film Beneath Clouds, (2002) directed by Ivan Sen presented through violence, racism and a less than adequate education. Through Drover 's Wife (1892) written by Henry Lawson characters are depicted through one mother 's hardships and the way she raises her family in the absence of her husband. Both Beneath Clouds and Drover’s Wife explore Australian identity and what makes it, along with the integral part of any culture in a diverse way.

The reason behind why I picked the movie “Snow on Tha Bluff” to be my culture is because I wanted to understand and watch how their lifestyle of living and what they had to do in their culture. Also, I wanted to understand what was their reason why they wanted to hurt each other, sell drugs, and wanted to stay in the living lifestyle that they were in.

The Civil War devastated families all across the United States. Hundreds of thousands of people died and for many years after, the nation was still divided and trying to figure out how to move forward. Irene Hunt learned of stories of the Civil War from her grandfather who served in the Civil War. Hunt’s book, Across Five Aprils, relates to her childhood because this novel is nothing but a story of the war from one family. This book hit home hard and revealed concepts of realism by examining the effects the war had on everyday life.

Through the depiction of Chiron and his struggle in the film Moonlight Jenkins shows that the system one lives in and the internal self results in domination against oneself. Chiron the protagonist of the film is considered weak and fragile in comparison to his classmates and the people in his community and thus Chiron is targeted by his peers and even within his own household. In Frantz Fanon’s Black Skin, White Masks it is argued that the black man plays a part in their own domination by constantly viewing themselves as less than the white men.

“The Fountain” by Darren Aronofsky is a film that depicts Tommy’s Denial towards death. This film is the journey of one man in his past, present, and future. In the film, Tommy has a very stubborn mindset; he believes that death is a disease and that there is a cure for every disease. On the other hand, Izzi, Tommy’s wife is very accepting towards the thought of death and her intentions are to prove to Tommy that death is not as bad as it may seem. As the film progresses, Tommy’s acceptance towards death begins to gradually increase.

Theorist Vsevolod Pudovkin claims that narrative films are mainly a “product of construction” and cautious compilations of “selections of images that have been shot” (Renée).

The movie trainspotting showed multiple forms of drug use throughout its duration. This included cigarette use, alcohol use, as well as some amphetamine use. However, the substance of choice throughout the movie was heroine in which the majority of the main characters were addicted to. One of the most important themes of the movie was the main characters struggle with relapsing. In the movie Renton, the main character, relapses twice; with the first relapse being the worst one. Gorskis relapse process on pages 88-90 demonstrate the series of thought processes that occur from the moment Renton gets off heroin to the moment he relapses. It can be seen that various internal struggles lead to the reuse of the drug. He hits a bottom during this time period and begins committing petty crimes in order to fund his drug habits (pg. 4). This series of events was triggered by a tragedy that Renton and his buddies witnessed, which was the death of dawn a, for lack of a better word, crack baby. As stated by the literature, trigger events can often be evoked by feelings (pg. 97-98). Although the death of the baby was not the trigger event that led to the relapse it fueled the use of heroin to cope with his internal struggles (pgs. 97-98). His second relapse was not as devastating as the first. At this point in the movie Renton was being pressured to test some heroin to see if they could sell it. The scene looked rather degrading to Renton as he sat on the floor injecting him self while

Sebastian and Costa are friends. They are directing a film about one of the world’s most iconic figures, Christopher Columbus. They focus on what Columbus set in motion; the obsession with gold, the hunt for slaves by Spanish mastiffs, and punitive violence to those Indians who fought back. In the movie they use many locals from the area. One local in particular had a hard time behaving for the movie. At the time of filming the villagers were also trying to protect their water source. This became known as the Bolivian water war. The villagers fought and protested to keep their water source public and free. I believe that this movie is a good representation of the oppression that the villagers faced during the war in 2000. This movie also talks about the conquest that

What is friendship? According to google.com, friendship is defined as “a state of mutual trust and support between allied nations”. This is the main theme in the three movies that I have selected. The movies are Captain Abu Raed, Goodbye First Love and The Mystery of Happiness. These three movies all illustrate how a friendship can either blossom and grow into something beautiful or get hindered and fall out into something that it is not.

In my opinion, Deepa Mehta is a courageous and bold director to produce a movie ‘Water’ which is intended to affront the tradition and living style of Indians back then. She displays how every character brings up almost perfectly similar kind of stance which is because of the doctrine and beliefs that have been set in their minds for a long period of time. The practice inherited from one generation to another generation which later becomes the tradition of Indian community. I could see how every widow refuses and rebuffs changes; which they are forbidden to marry again as a result of believing in they themselves bring unluckiness or bad luck to others. In fact, other women either married
