Despite being one of the most popular, if not most popular, animated movies of all-time, Toy Story offers a limited perspective when it comes to gender because of manhood acts, homosociality, and stereotypes. The manhood acts in the film suppress women at the same time as they support the hegemonic masculinity, which is the masculinity that actively attempts to suppress women and inferior masculinities (Bird pg. 129). When the male characters in the movie do this, it approves of this negative behavior that limits the voice of the female characters. Additionally, the lack of female characters causes the film to portray homosociality, which prevents young girls from seeing a variety of representations of women in the toys. Also, the stereotypes in the movie reduce women to second class citizens. Both male and female stereotypes in the movie support the hegemonic masculinity. Ultimately, the depiction of manhood acts, homosociality, and stereotypes in the film, Toy Story, actively support the hegemonic masculinity at the expense of other gender identities.

These missions foresaw the Jesuits going to uncharted areas of the jungle inhabited by the Guarani people, demonstrating the significance assimilating the Guarani people meant to the Jesuits. Additionally, the Guarani people were accurately displayed as a self-sustained society where basic components such as: productivity, protection, justice regulations and a form of a leader was evident in the form of their King. Nonetheless, the Guarani were an isolated group of individuals who were secluded to the outside world; their only contact with outside personnelles were slave traders who would put them into forced slavery for personal benefits.

The 1997 Barry Levinson’s film Wag the Dog narrates its viewers a story about the successful rescue of the US President’s reputation that has been stained substantially. The President was involved in a sexual scandal eleven days before the election, according to the film’s plot.

Ridley Scott’s film The Martian explores the impact of extreme seclusion on an individual through the protagonist who is stranded on Mars. Similarly, Alfonso Cuaron’s film Gravity explores loneliness in space and the disastrous effects this can have. Both Scott and Cuaron develop their characters in order to survive extra-terrestrial environments and to avoid total isolation; however, Scott conveys the ways in which humour is used to maintain a positive attitude in order to survive; whilst Cuaron’s text deals more seriously with the negative impacts of isolation and highlights trauma and its effect on a person. The idea of isolation is fully explored by Scott and Cuaron through their use of characterisation, filmic techniques and symbols.

In Quentin Tarentino’s Reservoir Dogs mise-en-scene is very effective as a narrative tool. More specifically, ‘open formed’ mise-en-scene is used frequently in the film which Is defined as mise-en-scene that, “emphasises informal, unobtrusive compositions.” (Page 68, Understanding Movies, Louis Gianetti). This, alongside Tarentino’s more stylized and expressive moments (closed form), helps to encapsulate the themes of professionalism, trust and ruthlessness.

The final assigned film “The Martian”, was a thrilling Hollywood movie in which fellow astronauts leave astronaut Mark Watney stranded on Mars after a terrible storm leaves them no choice but to flee the planet in a rush. While they believed that Watney was dead, he was actually fighting to figure out how to survive alone on the Martian planet. Many of the events in this movie, I believe have factual potential. However, there were a few events that occurred and made me question whether or not they were invented for Hollywood effect. Although I have read that the script was sent to NASA to be revised before production on “The Martian” film even began, I wonder how much creative license the producers were allowed. In this paper I will evaluate the factual and scientific events in this movie alongside the nonfiction events.
