Final Project: The Interview

The film does have a very important and very controversial content. The film was violent and showed things as I truly believe the way things were. Yes, it was hard to watch at times, but it was the truth. The film is a really good example on what happens when people live life with hatred in their hearts. A good thing that Derek’s younger brother Danny learned that he wrote on his paper is “hate is baggage, life is too short to be p*ssed off all the time, it’s just not worth it” and I agree with him.

The film premiered in May of 1986, a critical period in American history due to the Cold War between the United States and Russia. In the past, The United States government had set up offices in Hollywood to “advise” Hollywood producers that they could not and should not produce films that were about anything related to the Cold War. Although this was not a law, producers often did abide by the rules and for the most part listened to the suggestions of the government. Some could argue that this was a form of censorship because it regulated what movies could be about. However, in actuality, producers had free choice to produce movies in whatever genera they wanted, and whatever topics they wanted.

I think this film can play in changing or improving social and/or political problems because it makes the audience more aware of what is going on in the world around them. By making this film, the directors were able to put the story out for everyone to view and have a better understanding

The government based on the movie is trampling on the universal right of its citizens on the issue of self-determination and

Movie’s hidden meaning snuggles a project of national interest and security, which is supposed to protect the country.

As the movie unfolds, it gives moviegoers a variety of emotions. The film tends to take drastic turns, and twists. What turns out to be causal racism, ends up being something we feel down our spine. The film touches issues around our current world issues such as racism, and interracial relationships, and many more. We need more films like “Get Out” as they touch basis on our ongoing issues as a society. The film not only played mind games with moviegoers, but it made many like myself realize there are furthermore issues than the ones that surface around us

The United States has the highest rate of teenage pregnancy among other countries in the western world, and the rate of STD’s is rising. The rise of STDs is largely contributed to the sexual activity of the adolescent age group.(source?) The crucial developmental period in a teenager’s life is from age 13 to 18, which is primarily when sexual education begins to grow greater in detail. I want to (Lit reviews aim to analyze specific topics with as little bias as possible. First person is an inappropriate tense for this particular kind of paper.) examine the media’s influence on female teenagers’ decisions surrounding their choices and decisions regarding sexual endeavors. Because it is such a frequent leisure activity, they are readily exposed to sexual imagery. I will consider aspects found in research such as the negative way sex is portrayed, its consequences, how television works as a flawed sexual educator, and the main themes regarding sex in television. Yet, I will highlight how media, along with parental guidance, can be used to create positivity for sex, and how it can be manipulated to exhibit healthy imagery regarding the subject.

Some individuals don’t like to think about the other side of the coin. These individuals would not want to watch a movie depicting that. The movie however does provide

Identify and describe roles you see the various group members taking on in the group portrayed in the film “Twelve Angry Men.”

The purpose of this project was to enable the learner to differentiate roles, responsibilities, scope of practice, licensure, certification, education, of a non-nurse professional healthcare provider through a semi-structured interview and observation experience. This experience enables the observer to engage in a simplified qualitative nursing research process as field notes were utilized to support in the analysis of both the interview and the observation.

The media plays an increasing role in any young person’s life, but it is especially important to teens in their high school years. Research has demonstrated that teenagers “voice concerns and attitudes that echo themes common in media messages, and that they behave in ways that reflect media content” (Feldman 245). The concern is that the sexually suggestive media is the reason for the increase of sexual activity among high school teens. The media messages that are known to increase a teenagers’ sexual behavior come from all different angles, such as sexually explicit music lyrics to the “sex sells” philosophy of countless main stream commercials.

On average, people spend over 700 BILLION minutes on Facebook in one month. (Facebook) In today's day and age, social networking sites have taken over the internet. Sites such as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr have linked people together in a way that was never thought possible. However, from all good comes bad, and from social networking sites the act of cyber bullying - bullying and harassing someone through the internet was born. Now, whether or not the websites are the cause of cyber bullying has become a rather controversial topic. Abraham Foxman and Cyndi Silverman, both part of the Anti-Defamation League, vehemently feel that these social networking sites spawned cyber bullying. On the other hand, Kate Harding, blogger and

The connection between the teen media exposure and teen risky sexual behavior have been examined throughout the years. The results of these studies conducted to examine how the exposure to mass media affects teen sexual behavior contradict. Teens romantic and sexual interests motivate them to seek for information from the media “becoming exposed to television, music videos, movies and magazines six to eight hours each day” (Steinberg & Monahan, 2011, P. 562). But Ward, Day and Epstein (2006) stated “media are saturated with sexual content and imagery, which appear in 83 percent of programs popular among adolescents” (p. 57). Pettit (2003), Pinkleton, Austin, Chen and Cohen (2012) and Fuller and Damico (2008) findings suggested that media messages potentially affect the way teens think about sex negatively. Whereas, Ward et al. (2006) proposed the media’s effect on teen sexuality is not always negative, and for Steinberg and Monahan (2011), there was no effect of mass media on teen sexuality. There is not enough evidence to say whether or not media really does affect teen sexual behavior. The inconclusive results suggest that more research needs to be conducted.

Among other numerous evident themes in this movie include credible threats, especially to the government, intelligence, by exploring how best the FBI can work, fascism and Imperium, where power is used to counter opposition and criticism, western liberalism, diversity, white genocide, surveillance and contradiction of freedom.

In Indonesia this outraged a large number of Muslims who believed that this was another attempt by the West to impose their values on them. This led to many people lashing out in protest against the film and anything Western. These issues are showing how the security situation will become more volatile in the future. It is at this point that something small (such as a movie) could become a major incident in different regions of the world. (Yudhoyono, 2012)
