cops get further involved with the Yakuza. As far as the visual style goes Black Rain pretty much picks up where Blade Runner left off. Scott applies this style to a more present day setting with his signature mood lighting technique that utilizes fog/steam to project bands of light in order to add more texture/contrast into fairly static shot scenes.…

she fell, it would be the death of her. She shook the thought away and looked ahead. Fog was swirling just beyond a sea stack close by, blocking her view of the islands that were nearby. The expedition was about to start and everyone was anxious. I looked over to Flower and she signaled and to begin the expedition. Everyone took off in the direction of the sea stack ahead. I followed cautiously. As we entered the fog Winter Stream tensed and managed a low growl. I looked around, but Winter…

By cloaking scenes in fog and mist, Coppola emphasises the fear of the unknown, the perils of venturing too far into the subconscious, and the supremacy of the wilderness.

FIGHT CLUB AND POST-MODERNISM In the Postmodernity, the traditional structures of the world have fallen precipitously. The industrial revolution has ended in complete failure, achieving success has not promoted the welfare among humans and religion has ceased to be transcendent, hence the Nietzsche postulate that "God is dead". Religion has become the worst enemy of freedom of thought. The belief in the virtues of education and the advances in science have also fallen to the ground. This…
