In the film, Antwone fisher, Washington uses a symbol of women. The beginning of the film shows how Antwone was mistreated and abused as a child through flashbacks.

Every Film is placed in a category that is apart of formalism, Realism, and Classicism. I believe that the movies Sin City, Troll Hunter, and Good Will Hunting all fall into one of these categories. Sin City represents Classicism because it focuses on the storytelling; Troll Hunter represents Realism because it focuses on the way the filmmaker is making the film and Good Will Hunting represents Formalism because the filmmaker is drawing attention to self and the film.

In the film ‘Syriana’ corporatocracy was portrayed as many companies conspired to control oil producing nations for their own profit. These power structures are portrayed in a neutral light for the first half of the movie.

However at the end of the movie I feel that the portrayal of the different types of companies

In the movie Finding Forrester, William Forrester questions, “Why is it the words we write for ourselves are always so much better than the words we write for others?” This film expresses the true meaning of trust and its ability to impact other people. Throughout the movie, Jamal and William learn to expand their trust within William’s apartment. Not only does William help Jamal by gradually teaching him his approach towards writing, but he also shows him the value of a healthy and longstanding

Influential Film Essay: Good Will Hunting The movie industry has worked relentlessly to improve visual and audio effects throughout the years, yet these days I find myself looking far more to the story that the movie is trying to tell through character developments.
