    While this was not my first time watching this movie, I felt like I got much more from the movie watching it now because of my improved understanding of the various conditions (including personality disorders) present in the patients and the staff of the facility. Mac was a very interesting and complex character, that while at first glace likeable, it was hard to get out of your mind all the horrible things he had done to people, including minors. He did seem, at least superficially, to care about the fellow patients. I feel that he actually helped many of the patients, treated them with more kindness than most the staff, and the patients seemed to genuinely enjoy being around him.…

    It is morning. The film begins with an extreme long shot that showcases not only the chaotic scenery of New York City, but the man in which this city encapsulates, John Shaft (Richard Roundtree). Despite its opening sequence, Shaft (Parks, 1971) utilizes a multitude of close up shots to convey the dominance of John Shaft to the city, but more importantly the dominance of the black male to its community. Gordon Parks utilized close ups specifically when John Shaft contrasted others in conversations. In one specific scene, Shaft was not only in the foreground of the shot, but when speaking to his white boss the camera framed him in a medium close up with his boss in similar focal clarity in the background.…
