    • 10 Pages

    tell the story about Christ’s death and resurrection. Then in 2004 Mel Gibson made his version of the movie and as I like to say brought it in to the 21st century with updated graphics, violence, and blood. The combination of images, faith, and history this film truly was like no other Passion of Christ movie ever done. The Passion of the Christ is a serious and deep piece of cinematography, it not just show us how much pain one man went through for us but it celebrates for the unbeliever the triumph of humanity over an absolute brutality and through this movie for all the believers of the Christian faith this movie has become a powerful reminder that we still need to…

    Hamlet the Play versus Hamlet the Movie The movie Hamlet and the play have many noticeable differences. The Hamlet starring Mel Gibson added and cut scenes and lines from the play. The director most likely did this so that viewers could understand Hamlet better. Overall, the movie kept main themes and the plot however multiple noticeable changes were made.

    Inaccuracy In Braveheart

    • 450 Words
    • 2 Pages

    In my opinion Gibson did excellent job portraying the scottish battle hero Willam Wallace. “Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live...at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take...OUR FREEDOM!” ~ William Wallace, Braveheart (1995). William Wallace's proves in this quote that one…

    hard to read Hamlet. In the play, Hamlet seemed to be faking his madness for most of the interaction on stage, except for the scene in which he kisses Ophelia. This seemed very genuine, he takes a break from his “mad” rant, in which he constantly repeats “get thee to a nunnery.” He pauses and takes the time to show his love for Ophelia. This pause reveals to Ophelia there is sanity behind his madness, and that he is putting on a show. Because of the sudden break, the audience may be confused on…

    One would think that the play Hamlet and the movie Hamlet would be rather similar, since they are entitled the same and the movie is based on the play. Although this does not seem to be the case in comparing the play, Hamlet by William Shakespeare and the movie Hamlet directed by Franco Zeffirelli and starring Mel Gibson. The movie does follow the basic plot line and have the majority of the same characters as the play, but Zeffirelli added to and took out various parts of the original play by…

    African American Movie

    the term is known as ‘white-washing’. An excuse for white-washing in films by their producers and directors other than the Charles Bunnett, is that the audience will relate more with a white cast. Those excuses seem to puzzle me a lot especially since history have proved against them. One example is Aloha (2015), the films cast Emma Stone as the female lead (Allison Ng) who is meant to be Chinese and Hawaii decent plus the casting of Caucasians as majority residents of Hawaii despite the fact…
