The first song I will examine is the folk-rock hit, “The Universal Soldier.” Carrying a somber yet avant-garde timber carried by a charismatic rhythm, Buffy wrote this song with the intent of creating a dialogue surrounding the absurdity of war and to deepen the responsibility of conflicts which we too often hide from, “It’s about individual responsibility for war and how the old feudal thinking kills us all” - Buffy St Marie. During the 1960’s “Universal Soldier” became an anthem for the activist movement against the Vietnam war. As the title suggests, the song declines to commend a particular group. Rather, it applies to all the soldiers worldwide– to the universal soldier. Because, no matter the time or place he is the one who will risk his life and subject himself to the ubiquitous barbarism of war. The soldier can be of any religion, of

Jordan Peele’s uses sound to his complete advantage in his thriller Get Out. The film sound in Get Out creates the tone of the scenes, advances the plot, and develop the theme of racism.

The blues in “SUnrise Over Fallujah” represent the hardships of the soldiers time in Iraq. Jonesy of the first squad sings the song to show his perspective of the war through a soldier's pain and reveal to the audience about what war is like. Jonesy sings, “Well the bombs are falling, yes the bombs are coming down. Baby, them bombs are falling, they’re really coming down..” (Chapter 6 pg 50). Although the sight of bombs falling is not pleasant, he sings sarcastically because the squad is bitter about having to apologize about killing nearby citizens from the

The film, Forrest Gump, follows the life of the character as he goes about life while being involved with historical events. In this scene was the ending part of the Vietnam War part of the movie and it relates to the meaning of courage that are also in The Things They Carried. Both Gump, O’Brien and the other characters are fighting the same war, struggling with situations regarding relationships, death, pain, and the post war world. In the scene, Forrest and Bubba running away from the enemy as planes napalm the enemy region.

In the movie Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele, one peculiar scene takes place outside in the backyard of the Armitage’s house during a party, where the topic of tribalism is present. The party Chris Washington, Rose Armitage’s boyfriend, is attending takes place outside where it is spacious, bright, and accented by a rich forest surrounding the property, which provides a home to Rose’s family, and their ‘around-the-home-maids’, such as Logan, which is prevalent in this scene. The scene starts off by Chris going up to Logan and stating “good to see another brother ‘round here.” Once the two are about to engage in conversation, Logan’s wife Philomena, interrupts and lets Walter know other company is asking about him and that he needs to go chat with the other company. Before Logan leaves, Chris offers him a fist bump, but is surprised by Logan grabbing his fist instead of bumping it back, inferring that he is behaving as the other white folks surrounding him. Shortly after leaving, Logan then showcases himself to the white people. This scene represents partly what David Berreby’s article, “It Takes a Tribe”, was about: humans naturally group together stationed on common interests.

The Hardship of a Child Soldier Bang! Bang! “At that instant several gunshots, which sounded like thunder striking the tin-roofed houses, took over town. The sound of guns was so terrifying it confused everyone” (Beah 23).

One example is when it is said, “Machine gun...tearing my body all apart” (Hendrix “Machine Gun”). This quote focuses on how war can tear someone apart. Before soldiers go into war, normal citizens uphold certain codes of conduct and display traits of morality and innocence. This all changes in war and in the battle of returning back home. War destroys all moral and ethical values. Another example is the lyric, “He’s been shot to the ground...Oh where he can’t survive no on” (Hendrix “Machine Gun”). Based on this quote, it is seen that once soldiers hit “rock bottom,” it can be extremely hard to get back on their feet. People come to a point where all the parts of war consume them and get too much for them. The days of living a life of innocence and morality are in the past and all the current issues continue to follow the soldier into his post-war life. The song, “Machine Gun,” by Jimi Hendrix, demonstrates how war can cause a person to lose his innocence and

The use of symphonic music achieves to increase the motives of the citizens to join Adolf Hitler as Riefenstahl synchronized the music with her rapid cutting techniques. This is shown in the beginning of the film as the orchestral sound seems to appear to match the movements of the clouds. The score also appears to awaken Nuremberg due to the accompanying images of the buildings and clouds. A second type of music is the use of marching music. Marching is often referring to the control of a certain area and knowing one of Hitler’s goals is to take over Germany, he stimulates the citizens to be under his spell as the combination between peaceful (orchestra) and dramatic (marching) music makes him have the crowd in his clutches.

Pixar’s Inside Out is an interesting take on how our emotions work as well as how our brains operate. The story starts off with a narration by Joy, voiced by Amy Poehler, explaining how her job works, and how she and the other emotions came to be inside the mind of young Riley Anderson. The emotions watch and guide Riley by influencing how she reacts to different daily situations. The only thing the emotions are not prepared for however, is an unexpected move from Minnesota to San Francisco (Inside Out). This hilarious take at how our brains work allows Inside Out to create an entertaining and engaging movie using character interaction and its deeper emotional and psychological meanings.

Inside Out is a movie based on the emotions of the life progression of Riley. The movie starts off when Riley was born. In a dark room Joy ascends to a button, which is the control center in Riley’s mind, and touches it which makes Riley give a little baby giggle. As a result of Riley’s giggle, a glowing little ball is produced, a memory, and because the memory was created by Joy, the memory ball is yellow. Then after 33 seconds, Sadness comes and touches the button to make Riley cry. As Riley grows into a toddler Fear comes into Headquarters. He helps Riley in her interaction with her surroundings as she plays, and keeps her safe from electrical outlets and cords. Then when Riley is introduced to a plate of broccoli we first encounter Disgust

The solitary sounds on drumming and then trumpets are battle-like and give a proud and noble or royal impression, which, due to their ultimate sacrifice to their country, they deserve. In Pearl Harbor, the scenes of grief are complimented with non-diagetic sounds of dialogue. There are people talking to each other, trying to keep people alive, but also the sounds of heavy and hard breathing. This film uses tone of voice during these scenes more than what We Were Soldiers does. When the people are talking you can tell in their voice that they are either dying or holding back tears.
