Bad Day at Black Rock Kathryn Abbott October 29 2015 DRAMA 3030 The unexpected arrival of a stranger to a small, Midwestern town creates a feeling of scepticism and suspicion, and through this the explicit meaning is revealed: Fear of the unknown and the moral and physical deterioration of a town left to its own devices. The film exemplifies these concepts through the use of mise-en-scène, and vivid cinematographic elements. The blood red coloured train stands out against a muted background.
Mise-en-scéne is crucial to classical Hollywood as it defined an era ‘that in its primary sense and effect, shows us something; it is a means of display. ' (Martin 2014, p.XV). Billy Wilder 's Sunset Boulevard (Wilder 1950) will be analysed and explored with its techniques and styles of mise-en-scéne and how this aspect of filmmaking establishes together as a cohesive whole with the narrative themes as classical Hollywood storytelling. Features of the film 's sense of space and time, setting, motifs, characters, and character goals will be explored and how they affect the characterisation, structure, and three-act organisation.
“The Freshman” and “Knute Rockne: All American”, two completely different plot lines with one connection: football to masculinity. “The Freshman” is about a Harold, a boy dreaming to go to college and be the most popular kid on campus. All of his dreams were based around this character from a movie, “College Hero”, name Speedy. Harold gets into Tate College and tries to copy Speedy in every way possible. Inorder for him to becomes the most popular student, he needs to take down the football captain.
What if science told you everything about yourself? In the movie "GATTACA" scientists take some of your DNA when you are born, to see when you die, and what you die from. GATTACA is a movie about extended science and your DNA holding you back. In the movie your dreams do not matter. Its all about your DNA and what your DNA is up for.
Blade runner 2049 review and sequels in Hollywood A cathartic monologue pairs well with an unrelenting downpour, while nothing beats a genial powdering of snow for finally hanging loose and making peace with the bullet hole in your gut.1Both work as resolution, just shades apart. When a Londoner wants to project pathos onto a cityscape he adds rains, a Montréalais adds snow. Blade runner 2049 revisits the city of Ridley Scott 's 1982 Original, just paints it with a different palate. The Los Angeles 2049 is indeed a colder place.
In this scene, we see Vincent beat his genetically superior brother, who is ‘Valid’ in a swimming contest, highlighting the importance/drive of the human spirit and that ‘there is no gene for the human spirit’. In this scene we the audience are allowed to further grasped the underlying message of the film- that a person’s self-worth cannot be measured by their gene code. The director Andrew Niccol’s shows us this through the use of four key techniques in this scene are as follows Non-Diegetic music, a green tint, medium close up shot and cross cutting. All of the theses techniques allow Niccol’s to convey emotions and themes through the movie ‘Gattaca’ without the uses of dialogue. The director Niccol’s cleverly manipulates the technique

Damien Chazelle’s American musical film, La La Land (2016), with Director of Photography Linus Sandgren, won about six awards at the Oscars. One of the awards they received is in the Cinematography category. I personally agree with this voting because this beautifully-made film shows, not tells, the story. In the beginning of the film, the viewers see the story from Mia’s point of view, but the story later goes back and switches to Sebastian’s point of view.
Pulp Fiction, a gangster film centred around crime and drama, was directed and written by Quentin Tarantino, staring John Travolta, Uma Thurman and Samuel Jackson. The Oscar award winning film details the lives of two hitmen, a gangster, and the gangster’s wife Jules Winnfield (Samuel Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta), are on a mission to retrieve a stolen briefcase from their employer, and mob boss, Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames). Mia, (Uma Thurman) plays the role as Wallace’s wife, who is spends some time with Vincent, while Wallace leaves town for business purposes. Even though the lives of these individuals seem interesting enough, each of them wove together to create a film involving a series of funny, bizarre, and suspenseful
The Revenant is a novel by Michael Punke originally published in 2002. Punke’s story is one of history, and it has been previously adapted into a movie in 1971 titled, Man in the Wilderness. All media and book did not stick to the original historical figure of Hugh Glass. Most recent adaptation in 2015 by Alejandro G. Iñárritu. Despite the fact that the movie was made famous based on inaccuracy of the actual true story, it still presents wonderful cinematography.
Pirouz Emami 400088956 In the Gattaca movie produced in a 1997, many futuristic technologies regarding that time has been shown. Now is 20 years past the time that the movie was initially released and we are using some concept technologies used in the movies such as electric cars. One of the futuristic technologies showed in the movie was the rapid identification of people from their genetics. The question is have we discovered a method to identify a person from his DNA as shown in the movie?
What does director Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1994), directed by Kenneth Branagh, have in common— a mutual underlying story; but their differences are what makes their tales all the more special. Edward Scissorhands is a retelling of Frankenstein, but with a slight twist. In Edward’s case instead of lacking companionship like Frankenstein’s monster, he lacks hands; and is received rather well by the surrounding community. Ironically, in both tales the characters share the same desire to be love; this ignites the question – why do humans want to be love? Are we only important as we are loved?
The film “Argo”, directed by Ben Affleck, re-enacted the events of the Canadian Caper during the Iranian Hostage Crisis (1979-1981) in Tehran, Iran. Not all 53 hostages were captured as six American diplomats escaped and were taken into the care of Ken Taylor, the Canadian Prime Minister at the time, in the Canadian embassy. Taylor and the Canadian government created a plan to help the diplomats escape, however, they needed an intelligence force to back them up, which they didn’t have. The C.I.A was contacted to help Canada get the diplomats back to Canada safely with fake Canadian passports. The C.I.A created the fake movie called “Argo” as well as a fake studio and script.
Student’s Name Professor’s Name Subject DD MM YYYY SANKOFA – CRITICAL REVIEW Sankofa, a movie by Haile Gerima revolves around the horrors of slavery, revealing the humiliating and torturous experiences people from the African Diaspora had to go through during the Atlantic slave trade period. A film based in Ghana, where the slave trade was rampant for centuries, it highlights the savagery of white people and how internalized the oppression was for the Africans through poetic descriptions of complacency and fear.
Lion, directed by Garth Davis, is a compelling interpretation of a remarkable true story of Saroo Brierley, lost as a child and reunited with his family 25 years later. Throughout Davis explores the unique circumstances under which Saroo is separated and reconnected with his family and his journey along the way. At some points of the film, I was confronted by how Saroo, a five-year-old boy, expertely navigates, with great instinct and genuine innocence, through an extended, yet life threatening ride. To put it in other words, Lion is a journey that grabs you entirely; whether you want it or not, and you are involved in each and every scene. I instantly fell in love with the connection and relationship between Saroo and his older brother
