On Tuesday, October 6th, “The William & Stephanie Clohesy Documentary Film Series” brought American film director, Dawn Porter, to discuss her documentary Spies of the Mississippi to UNI students. This paper not only discusses the documentary, but also goes through each step of the critical process to make an informed judgment about it.

Marion Starrett is the wife of Joe Starrett and love interest of Shane, who she fails to subdue throughout the movie Shane. Portrayed by Jean Arthur, Marion is a pastoral housewife in a late-19th century community of homesteaders. Marion is a very cautious woman who abhors undeserved violence to others. In Shane, Marion Starrett acts as an anchor of safety and conventionality to the men around her, and only men who are beyond her domestic control are fully free from her influence. Marion’s over-protective manner and speech towards Joe, Joey, and Shane throughout the movie depict her as an immovable force of security among her family and Shane.
O Brother Where Art Thou? is a film that will take you on a perilous journey with Ulysses Everett McGill and his simpleminded cohorts. This film may be set amidst the early 1930’s Great Depression era, but it still has a Homer’s Odyssey feel to it.

How we see ourselves cannot be exactly how we are perceived by others. This is an ordinary situation for common people in daily lives because no one can know everything about another person and one’s impression is always depending on the background information on the particular occasion when judgment is made. If what we really are or what we see ourselves is an iceberg, only the small part above the sea is seen by the others but larger part below the sea is unseen. Sometimes, how people think of us is like a distorting mirror, which misrepresents the truth, makes funny exaggerations and misleads far away from who we are. The pictures of Laura Swanson are personal examples of the ‘iceberg’ views by others.
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was a nostalgic Western at the time of its release, and in time, most people were nostalgic for this film itself.
