Essay about The Impossible: Movie Analysis

It’s a unique story. The story is well-developed. It includes a lot of details which are all important for the end of the story. Despite one major plottwist, it is fairly predictable. It’s still a touching story.

The vision Christopher Nolan had for The Prestige (2006) was to add to the outbreak of street magician film, whilst playing a large dramatic subplot equal in grandeur to the magical performances within the film. In the final sequence of the film, I will analyse how the cinematography and sound resolves the plot so that it summarises the themes present in the film, whilst also invoking a response from the audience. Nolan predominantly uses close up shots, non-diegetic sound (music) and dialogue collaboratively to convey the dramatic, personal subplot of the characters and their relationships, whilst appealing to the audience bringing forth an emotional response from the audience. The heavy, slow, dramatic atmosphere of the ending sequence uses various techniques to summarise and uncover the underlying mysteries of the events throughout the film and consolidate themes introduced during the exposition.

Trainspotting presents an ostensible image of fractured society. The 1996 film opens, famously, with a series of postulated choices—variables, essentially, in the delineation of identity and opposition. Significant here is the tone in which these options are delivered—it might be considered the rhetorical voice of society, a playful exposition of the pressure placed on individuals to make the "correct" choices, to conform to expectation.

I think it accurately portrayed the hardships families went through during the Great Depression. At first, everything was fine and James J. Braddock was a successful boxer with a good amount of money. Then, the Great Depression hits and Braddock struggles to support his family. He continues to box, but it is difficult for him to support his family off what little he makes. He tries to find other jobs, but struggles because he broke his hand in a boxing match, making manual labor especially painful for him. I thought this part of the movie was extremely sad. Braddock was trying so hard to support his family, but he could barely manage. He continued to box even though he was not healthy, as he had a broken hand and was extremely malnourished. His wife was always stressed and the Depression was a huge strain of their marriage. Their kids were young and didn’t really understand what was going on, but they still suffered from starvation and illness. I really liked the end of the movie when Braddock receives a large sum of money after winning a huge boxing match. He was able to provide for his family once again. I think this really shows that hard work eventually pays

“Insidious” is a 2010 horror movie centralizing around the lives of protagonists Renai (Rose Byrne) and her husband Josh (Patrick Wilson). The movie mainly focuses on the supernatural activity going on within the house, and it is later revealed that the cause of the hauntings is due to demons attempting to take over the body of their unconscious son, Dalton (Ty Simpkins).

The movie was a lot about a woman that survived the titanic and told her love story. I, myself, am a hopeless romantic. Her telling the story with her falling in love just made people want to watch the movie, but the real events that occurred and all of the children and families getting separated really makes me grateful for my family. The movie and learning more about the event that changed our society changed me and makes me think about how much we take for granted and how ungrateful we are. I think the titanic, the unsinkable ship, sinking got to people. Thinking back what if the titanic never sank?

The film, “the Power of One,” followed the life of a boy named P.K. from a small child to a handsome young man. It showed all the hardship and tragedy he had to endure throughout his life. Although the movie could have focused more on the apartheid, it instead portrayed the vulgarity of those times through the eyes of an English boy. As time went on, P.K. slowly began to realize the full severity of the apartheid. It was difficult for a child to comprehend how horribly people could treat one another for no apparent reason.

The movie thirteen touched many important factors of adolescent’s development. Some of the ones I want to concentrate in this paper are: family system, developmental tasks, and peer pressure.

The movie “John Q” narrates a story of the financially constrained character John Quincy Archibald who ensures that his nine year old son at the brink of death, secures a heart transplant by any means possible. Throughout the movie, there is a compelling display of the love shared by a family and this is seen in the great lengths John went to save his son, however unlawful. The main characters are John, Michael and Denise Archibald, Rebecca Payne, Doctor Turner and Lt. Grimes.

“Ordinary people” everywhere are faced day after day with the ever so common tragedy of losing a loved one. As we all know death is inevitable. We live with this harsh reality in the back of our mind’s eye. Only when we are shoved in the depths of despair can we truly understand the multitude of emotions brought forth. Although people may try to be empathetic, no one can truly grasp the rawness felt inside of a shattered heart until death has knocked at their door. We live in an environment where death is invisible and denied, yet we have become desensitized to it. These inconsistencies appear in the extent to which families are personally affected by death—whether they

I enjoyed this film because it has a real story behind it and is something I

Movies and other forms of popular entertainment sources have often presented varied information and as well as misinformation about schizophrenia, most specifically in regard to its negative portrayals, which can lead to confused public opinion. In summary, majority of movies and popular entrainment media sources portrays people with schizophrenia as violent and with homicidal and suicide thoughts.

In Michael Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), the connections between people and memories become the focal point of a very unique romance. Through the use of new technology, the possibility of erasing memories makes painful relationships disappear like they never happened. The tale of Joel and Clementine allows the audience to rethink and question the process they undergo as beneficial or destructive. Though the process might be helpful in eliminating the pain caused from another person, four key scenes show how the lessons learned through relationship experiences are important.

We would highly recommend this movie to others as it was very educational, but also very enjoyable at the same time. We all had a good experience and learned a lot about women’s rights issues of the past that many women can still
