CRITICALLY DISCUSS ANY OF THE FILMS SCREENED IN THE COURSE IN RELATION TO DISCOURSES SURROUNDING THE “DEATH OF CINEMA”. WHY ARE SUCH IDEAS/DISCOURSES ATTRACTIVE TO PARTICULAR FILMMAKERS AND TYPES OF CINEMA?

In the movie, Ordinary People, the Jarrett family have a problem dealing with the death of their son and brother buck in a boating accident. They try to understand what happened and to be able to communicate the same way to each other but find that that is a lot harder than they think. The main focus of the movie is to see the three family member’s reactions to everything. The proper conflict management could have helped the Jarrett family with their situation. Conrad, Beth, and Calvin all engage in silence or violence moments at some point in the movie.

The Princess Bride was released on October 9, 1987 by director Rob Reiner. The movie

In Rear Window, Hitchcock uses visuals in order to capture the perfect cinematic film and experience. We as the viewers identify with Jeff because much like how he is watching his neighbors, we are also speculating his life as a film. Our hero, L.B. Jeffries or “Jeff”, out of boredom creates an outdoor theater for himself by spying on his the people outside his window. Hitchcock uses “murder-as-entertainment” and the idea of watching a cinematic film as ways to captivate the viewers and make us subconsciously take part in intruding on someone else’s life. Hitchcock then punishes Jeff and the viewers for being “peeping toms” and casting our unwanted voyeurism on other people’s private lives. Through fear and embarrassment, Hitchcock puts our actions into perspective as we become self-conscious of our indecent objectification toward human lives.

“Hollywood usually ends up swallowing people and eating them alive”, are some of the beginning words in the National Geographic docu-series Drugs Inc... The documentary is rightly names “Hollywood high” because of its raw footage. This film is a chilling depiction of drugs and Hollywood. Its uncut material shows the reality of how drugs can affect people of every walk of life. A person doesn’t have to be rich or poor to become drug dependent. The film goes on to say how “fame hungry wannabes” and the “panhandling homeless” are two of the main populations to be affected by Hollywood’s thriving drug trade. Some of the other populations affected by Hollywood’s thriving drug trade are those who want to “stay up” and “be thin”. This film is not only about the populations affected by the thriving Hollywood drug trade but also the drug dealers and doctors who provide the drugs to that population.

While trying to figure out what to do with the body they go have a look at the cook Mrs. Ho to find her murdered in the kitchen, with the knife in her back. On coming back to the study Mr. Boddy has vanished to be later found bleeding from the head in the washroom attacked with the candlestick.

Comedy is also relatively short compared to other genre of movies. These two genres found to be the most popular movie genres than the other categories.

Idealism is the behavior or thought based on a conception of things as the should be or alone would wish them to be. In the movie Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Mr. Smith is portrayed as idealistic throughout the movie. He is idealistic in this movie because he is able to enter into the lions’ den (so to speak) and come out unchanged and victorious. In contrast, if you compare the film to what happens to most politicians who spend time in Washington, DC, you will see a great difference between the film’s representation of how much of a difference one man can make and what generally happens to congressmen and senators in real life.

O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a film that will surely make you want to fall out of your chair laughing, and make you want to get up and dance. This film is an absolute classic. It is hilarious, adventurous, and makes you feel good about yourself. The most unique thing about this film is the main characters break out of jail for the wrong reason, and then go on a wild chase trying to get home. Another unique part about this film is that the main character is currently divorced and wanting to remarry his ex-wife. The film, O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a classic comedy because it has well-rounded characters, adventure, and a little bit of love.

While several of his works dwell considerably on voyeurism, Hitchcock’s 1954 film Rear Window addresses it most directly. Not only does the film comment explicitly on ‘rear window ethics’, it also forces audiences to identify with the characters who violate them. No character in Rear Window is morally clean, and through several cinematic techniques, Hitchcock compels viewers to sympathize with nearly all of them. More than anything, Rear Window is a film about the audience’s complicity with ethically imperfect characters and their ethically imperfect behavior. This is particularly evident in two climactic scenes. The first scene creates a close identification with L.B. Jefferies, the main character and principal voyeur

Both films in this comparison are considered historically brilliant, which can be attested to their styles, creative genius, social themes and context, all of which have held up against time. Both films are incredible in their individual rights as well, certifying themselves as films that won’t be forgotten, and even defining aspects of filmmaking for works to follow. Despite their differences in story and appearance, there is a particular likeness in their exploration of characters that makes these films so alike. Both films have interesting characters that lead the story, and both Kazan and Hitchcock take advantage of that by allowing those characters to provide depth to their respective worlds.

I learned that nutrition is the process of providing or obtaining the food necessary for good health and growth. I also learned that sugar can cause many different types of health problems. The information I learned helped me to build a healthy menu for young children.

2 million minutes is a film that contends that U.S. students are performing at or under normal in math and science in comparison to China and India. The title of this film demonstrates the measure of minutes utilized in a four-year time period. They reference the two million minutes that the pupils will continue during their four years of secondary school before entering a college or the workforce. This documentary observes undergraduates in each of the three nations and looks at their core curriculum and what the pupils consider are most valuable to them.

The movie I chose to analyze for my assignment is ‘Taken’. The movie is a 2008 English-language French action thriller film directed by Pierre Morel, and written by Luc Besson and Robert Kamen. The music is composed by Nathaniel Mechaly.

Two movies base on comic books written in 1963 and 2008. The Avengers first written in 1963 then made it to the theater in 2012, is a group of superheroes brought together to save the world. The Guardians of the Galaxy first appeared in 2008, later made into a movie in 2014 is a group of scavengers and killers work together to save the galaxy. Both movies were action packed and filled with humor and story. The character’s interaction with each other, the humor, and animation were written very well into the movie.
