In every film you have your list of characters along with their personalities and most importantly their motives.

New Jack City is based in the 70’s-80’s with the main character Nino Brown. Nino is a young black small time drug dealer who was selling cocaine to the rich white people.

Both Laura Mulvey and bell hooks describe the idea of the “gaze” in film. In both of the theories presented by Mulvey and hooks, the “gaze” is the way in which viewers are subjected to a particular perspective because of their social standing. In Mulvey’s case, she argues that the “gaze” in which the audience is forced into is that of the “male gaze” while hooks argues a more nuanced “gaze” including the “oppositional gaze”. While some of Mulvey’s argument is accurate, hooks argues that it leaves out important other factors, in particular, race. Both arguments have many similarities and differences, and can be seen exemplified in many films, such as Spike Lee’s She’s Gotta Have It.

Regardless of age, race, or religion, the film’s powerful imagery captivated audiences nationwide. It not only set the tone for how people were already feeling, but it was also a call to those unaware of how bad conditions of poverty, gang violence and the feeling of oppression had become for the lower class. Though the movie was purely fictional, the issues it portrayed helped exploit a huge problem in our country.  In some areas, the films message hit so hard that riots broke out at theaters. The worst of these occurred at the Halsted Twin Outdoor Theater in the south Chicago suburb of Riverdale, where a man was fatally shot in his car by another man as both were leaving the drive-in. (???) Similarly, in the movie, Dough boy feels resentful about America because they don’t care about the ghetto which leads him to an endless cycle of violence.

When I read two essays, I honestly having a hard time consider to be the main thesis of each of the essays. The authors kept writing back and forth that lead me to confuse about the essays. In Maggie Paley's "Terry Southern: The Art of Screenwriting, by Interview", the author interviewed the screenwriter about his experiences. I believe the thesis will be: Terry Southern is a person who have an interesting past, wrote alot of plays, and had alot of experiences in the plays. I honestly can't find the right thesis because the author wrote everything unorganized, but I can see that he wrote alot of plays and told her that writing a book is different from writing a screenplay.
