Crash

In the movie crash your going to follow some different kind of people within’ the stereotypes of their ethnicity. And all the characters are in some way connected to each other in some way.

Very many scenes in the film were really touching, because many of the characters get more shit then they deserve. For example the Mexican lock-changer when he went to a store to change a lock, but it wasn’t anything wrong on the lock, it was the door. But he changed the look because it was his job the he told the story owner that he had changed the look but he needed a new door. But the story owner called him an cheater and thoughts he just wanted fool him but all he wanted was to help him.
Or when the lady were stuck in the burning car and she …show more content…

But for example the store owner, he scream and called the lock changer a cheater! But the only thing the lock changer did was to do his job and told the store owner what the real problem was, the door. 
The morning after when the store owner came to his store, everything was destroyed . The store has been robbed: maybe he got what he deserved? 

The only stories that got solved is the film producer. He and his wife got up again.
And the black police officers brother who was missing, they found him dead in the end of the film.
One of the two balck guys got murdered buy a police officer.
But you never really know how it ends up with the rich couple who got robbed in the beggining.
And the mexican guy keep living his life. 

The criticer is talking about the store owners daughter who took out the ammunition from the gun and the mexican guys daughter who was running in front of her dad the second before he shot of the gun.
So if there are any heros in this film, i think it is their daughters!

One scene in the film i reacted to and really felt with the characters was when the police officer sexually harassed the woman. And I really could see in her husbands eye that he wanted to do somthing but he couldn’t! And after somone sexually harassed you, your not going to forget it. Thats somthing your going to rember and think of your hole

When compared to a movie like Do The Right Thing by Spike Lee, Goddard uses the actors-looking-at-the-camera shot in a way that not only sometimes draws your attention to the fact you’re watching a movie, but it also puts the audience into the movie as a character in a way. For example, when Patricia looks into the camera both times that were mentioned above, you do (or atleast I do) feel like her eyes address the audience members. Meanwhile, in DTRT by Spike Lee there is a hilarious scene where Mookie, Pino, Gary Long, and the latino dude all look into the camera and spout those stereotypes and racial slurs, however they’re not directed at the audience, but serve as a first person POV shot, as if the subject they’re talking about were actually

When one sees through the hinge side in the history, seemingly endless ebbing away of days and a slow but steady decay of time, one is reminded of a quote of Dwight David Eisenhower, “The history of free men is never really written by chance, but by choice - their choice”. In a similar manner, love is something that happens by chance but is defined by our conscious and the movie, ‘Trainwreck’, proves it. Starring Amy Schumer, as a free-willed, but commitment fearing woman, and Bill Hader as Dr. Aaron Conners, a charming yet nerdy sports doctor, it is a movie that defies gender stereotypes but still follows the familiar romantic comedy genre. The movie focuses on how Amy deals with overcoming the teachings of her father, ‘Monogamy isn’t realistic’, a phrase on which Amy had based her life until she meets Aaron who convinces her to reconsider the stance. Building and maintaining any relationship takes

In the film Set it Off, the convention of the "Strong Black Woman" stereotype is explored through the main character's experiences.

In no way does Peter Jackson’s version of King Kong in 2005 attempt to address the concerning depiction of African Americans in the two previous versions; it is disgustingly racist and completely dehumanizes the black characters, turning them into tribal monsters. In the first version, directed by Merian Cooper in 1933, the black characters were reduced to racist African caricatures, dancing in grass skirts and chanting while they tie a pretty white girl up for sacrifice and the black characters wear face paint that mocks African cultural practices. When King Kong grabs helpless Ann played by Faye Wray, the black characters celebrate, solidifying which side they are on, and which side the audience is on. The audience is forced to consider them as the enemy of the white characters.

Things Fall Apart offers a view into the truth and reality of African cultures, which are often misconceptualized by these stereotypes.

Lulu Asselstine Mrs. Olsen LA 8 5 November, 2017 Stereotypes and Perspectives When looking at a bunch of bananas in a grocery store, people tend to choose the perfect spotless bananas, since stereotypically food that is perfect looking, with no flaws, taste better. However, people soon realize that when you start to eat bananas that have more spots and are imperfect they turn out to be sweeter and better. This connects to stereotypes because people who follow stereotyped will always eat the perfect bananas; however, people who choose to look through another perspective can realize that the imperfect bananas are better. This connects to The Outsiders because Ponyboy realizes this after he talks with two Socs, kids from a rival group named Randy and Cherry. In The Outsiders, S.E Hinton presents the idea that teenagers can break through stereotypes if they look at life through another perspective; as shown in the book when Ponyboy starts to talk to Cherry and Randy and realizes the stereotypes about them are false.
