Analysis Of The Village Movie

To grasp the future of work one must watch the film of Sergio Kirby and Lixin Fan to obtain a firm knowledge of the future of work in order to improve upon it. Sergio Kirby’s Wal-Town: The Film is a 66 minute documentary filmed in Canada that seeks to raise public awareness on the negative impacts that Walmart introduces in small town Canadian communities. The documentary includes six university activists attempting to put an end to Walmart’s negative impacts by trekking a journey of public awareness across the various Walmart’s in Canada .The students conclude that Walmart negatively impacts small communities by forcing citizens to become consumers, denying unionization, and closing small business in the local areas. The film gathers

My initial reaction to the film was of utter shock at the brutally raw reality of the film. Upon reflection and commentary from other sources, the film’s simple yet vastly effective filmmaking techniques of developing the explicit and implicit meaning of the film. The explicit meaning, as

In the beginning of the novel, a group of boys are stranded on an island resulting in the creation and decline of a civilization, and an uprising of savagery. Fear is an essential element of the story illustrated through foreshadowing, symbolism and diction. The young boys are terrified by a beast on the island. With fear rippling through the group, sheer chaos, savagery, a break in civilization, and a loss of innocence ensues.

As a young adult, it is difficult to grow up without parents and still be tough and brave. In addition, teens can be emotional and overreact at times. In the novel The Outsiders, by S.E Hinton, a fourteen-year-old kid named Ponyboy Curtis feels different emotions that make him stand out from other Greasers, or “hoodlums”. Ponyboy, the youngest of all the Greasers, is a great example of a teen who feels isolated, brave, and emotional throughout the novel.

It is the tale of a village who quarantines itself in a great act of self-sacrifice, which still inspires self-reflection in 21st-century audiences.

Although the violence in both films is quite obvious as the films progress, both film’s psychological horror is present in the early stages of the films, this form of horror is essential to both films in gaining the audiences attention and developing their own horror. This is portrayed effectively by the use of bland, uninteresting isolated settings. This isolation establishes the tense atmosphere of the films, and the everyday settings of a small village and a block of flats gives a sense of reality to the horror. This creates a relationship between the audience and the setting of the horror, and this is developed to create some effective jolts as both films progress. Characterisation can be used to isolate the audience from the horror, or develop a relationship with it, depending on how the characters are established.

Danny Boyle’s film Slumdog Millionaire follows two brothers from the Juhu slum in Mumbai as they face the trials and tributes of growing up in poverty. Although Salim, the elder brother, is given the same childhood experiences and trauma as his younger brother Jamal, his drive and hunger for power lead him to a life of crime, corruption and misconduct. These actions later have a detrimental effect on his relationship with Jamal, which in turn, becomes his demise. Boyle uses a range of effective film techniques to develop Salim’s growth as a character which helps to communicate the idea that ambition can enhance an individual or be the reason for their downfall. Throughout the film, Boyle uses the varying stages of Salim’s life through

Within ourselves, there is always the constant fear of what others may think of us, whether it be our actions, our clothes, out dialect, etc. This is one of the biggest societal fears, that is, the fear of a lack of love from society, which is shared amongst human beings themselves and is a well-used source for a plot in multimedia. This fear appears in both Dracula and The Village as a common characteristic but is felt by the characters in very different ways. In The Village, the plot is also based on this fear, as well as the twist of the story being the very incarnation of this fear. To explain, the twist of The Village is that when the main character, Ivy, has to go into the forbidden woods from her

Lawrence’s use of cinematography emphasizes the complexity of human interactions when faced with a responsibility of making a morally acceptable decision. The establishing and aerial shots of the ominous landscape highlight the desolate country town and its crucial role in the interpersonal dynamics. Scenes begin with close-up and mid-shots of main characters, introducing viewers to reliable figures and allowing them to focus on the interaction between the characters. Lawrence’s use of close-up shots enables viewers to understand the characters emotions, allowing them to feel empathy for the character. Moreover, Susan’s body is cut at a high angle, forcing the audience to see her as the small, powerless victim in comparison to Park who is shot from a low angle, further exploring the complexity of relationships between races and genders.

A few years ago, my sister introduced me to the film ‘Benny and Joon,’ a story about a woman in her twenties with a disability that is more or less undefined throughout the film. She lives with her brother who works full-time but hires several “housekeepers” that he has watch over her at home. She comes off quite content, mainly painting all day and going about her everyday routines. At first, she may just come off as a “stereotypical temperamental artist”(Tibbets) but her painting at a rapid rate, extreme pickiness of food (eating mainly captain crunch and peanut butter smoothies), unique mannerisms, and outbursts suggest that she may be on the spectrum. There are scenes where she puts on a scuba mask and attempts to direct traffic in the middle of the street with a Ping-Pong paddle; an episode that the article ‘The Patronizing “adorable” side of Schizophrenia in Benny and Joon’ addressed could be an indication of schizophrenia or bipolar disorders. The most recent “housekeeper” quits after one of Joon’s “outbursts.” After reading critiques by people with disabilities themselves and other sources, I have begun seeing this movie a new light, introducing a sadly patronizing and demeaning representation of disability and her family/societies inappropriate response to her condition.

An early scene shows the funeral service of villagers, many of them children, murdered by cartels. A sobbing villager’s interview tells how they were brutally beaten to death.

This is a very emotional staged documentary and with very graphic subtle visuals engulfed in not-so-subtle external forms in order to awaken my inner awareness of the film form and distance myself from the story itself.

The movie I evaluated was Menace to Society. The movie is about a young black man name Cain, growing up in the ghetto and is trying to get out. This movie takes in Watts, South Central California, in 1992. His mother was a drug addict and his father was a drug dealer, slash murder. His parents passed away when he was young, his mother died from drugs and his father was murdered. Cain would go then to live with his grandparents. He graduated high school then enrolled into the California streets. He hung with gangsters and drug dealers. He sold drugs, committed crimes, shot people, and he eventually got shot. Cain fell in love with a woman in the hood named Ronni. Ronni is trying to move out of the ghetto so her son could grow up in a better environment. She eventually convinces Cain to move to Atlanta, away from the negative environment in Cali. At the end of the movie their packing to leave, as some gangsters from Cain’s past drove by and shot up the house, killing Cain in the front yard. He never got a chance to move out of the hood before it killed him.

Last year the horror movie, Split, was released in theaters. The movie grossed $138.12 million dollars and was ranked in the top ten movies of 2016 (imdb.com). Split was a major success and terrified thousands of people. While watching this movie some audience members probably became extremely paranoid while others may have been perfectly calm. Every single person’s relationship with fear is different. Fear is a universal emotion that everybody encounters; however, every person’s experience with it is unique. Different personalities and cultures cause people to react and cope with fear in various ways. The novels Zeitoun and The Death of Ivan Ilych highlight fear and opposing experiences with it.
