Film Review : The Film ' The Golden Age '

Lacking the stars of Bogart and Bacall, the film inserts sexuality by glorifying Carmen Sternwood's nude body at every opportunity. She appears quite a few times, as Chandler would say; "in her birthday suit" alongside a gratuitous shot of the "Schoolgirls" porno magazine that Geiger distributes. The problem does not lay in the vulgarity of this blatant flamboyance of flesh; however, it adheres to the common false mystique that exhibitionism equals sex appeal.

A genre of film that became relevant in the end of the 20th century and never lost popularity is the comedy. With so many variations and versions of this movie type, such as slapstick and romance, it’s no wonder why so many people enjoy them. A classic comedy that came out in 1965, The Great Race directed by Blake Edwards, utilizes both of these styles in a way that makes the film exciting and extremely funny to watch. In the movie, a land race is planed from New York to Paris, with the two main competitors being the heroic Great Leslie and the evil Professor Fate. Throughout the film, Professor Fate’s sidekick attempts to sabotage other competitors in the race while The Great Leslie teams up with Maggie DuBois. The Great Race utilizes comedy styles perfectly, approaches the “Battle of the Sexes” quite well, and also has some scenes that pushed the pushed the rules of the production code.

According to the movie The Bronze Screen, I understand that the Spanish people started acting in US cinema and specifically in Hollywood from early 20th century. The Spanish cinema started with black and while movie. At the first they act with just Spanish representative, because they want control the American cinema and precisely Hollywood. The Spanish movie was in the first representation without the voice. After that they added the voice. The Mexican movies was increased in Hollywood cinemas because American people like it.

The 1870’s-90’s in the United States was a period of rapid industrial, population, and city growth. Dubbed “the Gilded Age” by Mark Twain, this era of growth also brought on new, unprecedented problems. Unhealthy living and working conditions and corruption were rampant and immigrants settled in cities that were unequipped to deal with them. Under bossism, the dominant political system of the day, one political giant controlled much of the cities they were the “boss” of. These bosses only solved problems when they could see how it would keep them in power and relied on the vulnerable poor and immigrants to make up much of their base. They learned to appease them, but never to actually solve their problems.

The time period after the Reconstruction Era was known as the Gilded Age (1870-1890). During this time period, the American economy expanded massively along with a large influx of European immigrants. It was known as a time of weak public policy and corrupt national politics. The Gilded Age in America was a time where industrialists were able to control the economy through a weak federal government, creating leeway for new ideologies that would carry on into the 20th century.

The Gilded Age, which got from one of Mark Twain's books, The Gilded Age: A Taleof Today, depicts a period in the United States with genuine social issues. Taking after the Civil War, the United States hopped to the front of the world in industrialization. Because of America's monetary development, the rich got wealthier and poor people, well got poorer. The Labor Movement was a significant point amid this time, and most likely changed the way America works today. As indicated by, today, the Gilded Age depicts the huge social, political and financial change that the US experienced from the last third of the nineteenth century to World War I. The Gilded Age did not just impetus industrialized power inside the United States, it additionally stamped basic in setting up the New York Art world in the worldwide workmanship advertise(Kresser, 2013).

I believe that the United States is in its golden age. I feel this way because their culture has been able to spread to almost every corner of the globe. The first reasons why I think the west are in a golden age; western medicine is at its peak. At this time we have more powerful and concentrated medicines that can help or treat problems that humanity could not treat in the past. Modern medicine is the kind of medicine usually used by the common doctors and it is frequently referred to Western medicine. Western music is also getting a creep upon the world; it is becoming more and more popular throughout the world. Although other countries have world changing advancements in technology America is blowing other countries out of the water, and

One of my favorite classic rock songs has always been “Glory Days” by Bruce Springsteen. I grew up listening to my dad’s music and this is one song that has always stuck with me. When I first found out that it was inspired by the Novel “The Great Gatsby” by F Scott. Fitzgerald I was shocked, I had never really listened to the lyrics before. After Reading the book and listening to the song a few more times, I realized that every verse is loosely based on different main characters. This gave the song new meaning for me, it now makes me picture the characters from the book and also has reminiscent sadness attached to it while still connecting to the idea of the American dream, a theme which is also very prevalent in the great Gatsby. The inspiration of characters for verses in this song makes it connects with the book on a whole new level.

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.

The early twentieth century was a time of change for the world. The world had gone through two World War’s by the end of 1945, and their impact on the world had a lot to do with the progressing of the cinema industry. In the instance of the films Rebecca, which was directed by Alfred Hitchcock and It Happened One Night, which was directed by Frank Capra, each portray different aspects of the theatre industry. The year that It Happened One Night came to theatres, the production code administration was approved that same year, which lined out all of the rules of how Hollywood directors should direct their movies and what they were and were not allowed to show in their movies, such as specific aspects about marriage or the lack of a marital commitment. Many differences can be seen within the two previously mentioned movies including character depth, different uses of framing, and uses of lighting. Each of these aspects creates a different meaning for each of the films, which helps further the plot and engage the viewers.
