The two are trapped as Bud and Mary Sue in a radically different dimension and make some huge changes to the bland lives of the citizens of Pleasantville, with the use of the director’s cinematic techniques.

The stories I enjoy to read about, watch, and listen to all involve romance. Most of the romantic stories I am drawn to have similar story lines, which is a guy and girl fall in love at the beginning and become separated for a few years due to a conflict. After their separation one or both characters will find a new significant other. Later on in the story they will run into each other and rekindle their love for one another. When they both discover their feelings for one another are still present they inform their “new” significant other and leave them, to reunite their old relationship. These stories usually conclude with a happy ending, which usually consists of getting married and living happily ever after. The stories people are drawn to do have an impact on who they are as individuals, by leaving individuals with expectations and attributions to inspire them. One story that has set my expectation levels high when searching for love is the Notebook.

Since the beginning of the Industrial Age, Americans have idealized the journey towards economic success. One thing people do not realize, however, is that that journey is not the same for every individual. For Charles Foster Kane (Orson Welles), the main character of Citizen Kane, directed by Orson Welles, the path towards riches and a fulfilled life is being well liked. He serves to please others. He strives for that attention. This view cost him his happiness in the end. In this man’s rise and fall through prosperity, Welles shows the futility of striving solely for likeability.
Play, a four letter word that encompases so many ideas. There are several different forms for play accessible to us all and not prohibited by your age. Do you want to build a snowman? The question brought to us by the Disney movie, Frozen. This question brings about a mental image, as well as offers an invitation to participate in object play. Frank Wilson wrote a book titled, The Hand, within the pages he shares that the more people are able to use their hands to learn, the stronger their problem solving skills become. Another form of play is body play, “the spontaneous desire to get ourselves out of gravity” (Brown 2008). Have you ever just needed to move, because you have sat for too long? Try standing up in your office, or bathroom stall if you want to not be a distraction to others around you, stand up and jump up and down five times and see how you feel. This movement will get the blood flowing again, breaking up the lethargy of your day.
Throughout adolescence and high school, students go through many experiences trying to figure out who they are and how they want to represent themselves. Zac Beaulieu, the protagonist in the film C.R.A.Z.Y., went through this transitional phase unlike most teenagers who live in Quebec’s 1970’s heteronormative society. As a queer trying to figure out his sexual identity, Zac goes through an unexpected journey when his non-heteronormative ways start to show. It started when Zac realized he was a little different than the other kids, and especially his brothers. Instead of being a jock or a nerd like his two of his brothers, he enjoyed to dressing up in his mother’s cloths, playing with babies, and pushing his baby brother’s carriage down the street. It was at this moment when his father caught him dressed up in his mother’s clothes talking to his little baby brother that he “had unwittingly declared war on his father”. Throughout the movie, Zac has many experiences which ultimately led him and his family to embrace his sexuality. Using music as an expression of his sexuality, Zac has been able to learn from each of his experiences and understand and appreciate the person he has become and was born to be.

A car is an extension of who we are - the ultimate attire, which is why the essence of this film is so attractive - at its core - the concept is so simple. It’s about embracing a driver’s connection with the verb. What does driving a Mazda feel like? What runs through your veins when you are behind the wheel? This is what first grabbed my imagination. A notion that is relatable and familiar enough, but that can be delivered in a way, that will turn typical car advertising on its head and propel the audience into an extraordinary time and place. Creating a cinematic world, that is not only mesmerisingly beautiful, but also rich in layers and metaphors, taking the viewer on a journey of ‘togetherness’, where man and machine are as one.
