Movie Review : I Believe Drama

and Much Ado About Nothing (Joss Whedon, 2013). These two plays both had a lot of drama in it, which I love movies and plays that have a lot of drama in it. “Drama is created by placing ordinary people in situations of crisis.” Which in both plays, the people just lashed out on each other when times got hard.

My opinion on the movie I watched, “The Outsiders” is that it was okay. I found some parts boring. There were some parts that was trying to be as emotional as the book and they looked very fake. The director of the movie was Francis Ford Coppola. The author of the book was S.E. Hinton. The Year the movie was made was 1983. The movie was about two gangs. The Socs and the Greasers. Two Greasers (Johnny and Ponyboy). A group of Socs jump them and Johnny is forced to kill one to save his friend from drowning. Johnny and Ponyboy run from the law to a small town named Windrixville. They soon become heros.

A drama may be classified as comic or tragic. A comedy is a story in which the character controls their own fate. The choices, courage, and free will of the character will ultimately decide their outcome. Comedies may illustrate human faults and weaknesses and their effect, but deserved or undeserved triumph is always possible. Conversely, a tragedy is when a character has a trait or a tragic flaw which will inevitably cause their downfall. Comedies may bind us in a common humanity , or provide hope, but tragedies are most often used to teach a lesson to the audience.

Tragedy, a melodramatic composition, generally in verse, dealing with serious or bleak themes, typically involving a great person condemned to experience downfall or utter devastation, through a tragic flaw.. Shakespearean Tragedy is the classification of a play written by William Shakespeare, which has a loyal protagonist, who has a tragic flaw, they are then placed in a stressful heightened situation and then they die. 400 years have now passed since Shakespeare wrote his last play, and you may think “Why do we still study Shakespeare? The answer to this question is simple, The themes that arise from his plays are timeless, The characters and stories expose universal truths about human nature, in a way people, such as yourselves, can relate

Statistics also show that drama has been and remains to be a favorite to many. It does not deviate so much from the mean of the total and operating gross. However, it is facing stiff competition from other movies genres especially action movies which have showed dominance in the movie industry. This is perhaps due to the use of technology and encouraging creativity in this type of genre. Statistics also show that drama can be favorable for most viewers since it is short in length. Most of the dramas are suitable for general viewing unlike other type of genres which may contain some content unsuitable for general viewing.

We read and saw a movie called The Outsiders by S.E Hinton. There are stuff that are the same and some that are different. We had to take notes between the book and movie.

Theatre has been a prevalent form of entertainment for centuries. As time has progressed, the meaning behind theater has shifted to adapt with society appropriately.

The drama element is there of course because Chihiro (Sen) is trying to get back to the human world and has to save her parents life, all while trying to stay alive herself. That is a lot of pressure for a 10 year old, right? In one scene in the beginning her parents decide to eat this huge, freshly prepared meal that was just sitting out in an abandoned amusement park (nothing weird about that) and then they literally turn into pigs. Big Fat Pigs engorging themselves in many platters of food as tall as they are! That seems quite dramatic. Another was when she needed to work in the bathhouse; she literally signed her name away and was given a new name, Sen. This symbolizes her life, identity, everything. You are nothing without your name. After she signed it away she started to forget parts of her life, this was how her “Boss” tried to control her. In the film she comes across a masked shadowy figure, No Face, he is a really lonely spirit that just wants friends. However he is unwanted. No one wants a friend without a face, that’s well… terrifying. It also doesn’t help that he eats them when they wrong him. Yes, a figure with no face eats them with a mouth that opens on the “abdomen” area of its shadowy form. They also weren’t true friends, they only liked him because he gave them gold. When he tried to befriend Sen by giving her gold, she wouldn’t accept it. This intrigued him and

Tragedy is something that is defined universally as the upheaval of any plot, story, or play where an event causes or leads to great suffering for everyone. Authors, playwrights, and even directors all know the certain scene or event that is key for the foreshadowing of tragedy to take place. This signal in any work allows us as an audience or reader to understand the meaning and significance for the need for a certain event to occur.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen, now dramas, what are they? So in a drama we usually have this idealistic manor that portrays a realistic character, such as this example (-->) , and these characters often have conflicts that revolve around life situations.
