Movie theaters started in the 1900 's as a way for families to get together and enjoy movies. Over the past decade movie theaters have continued to function in this manner, while they have some changes such as creating a drive in movie or creating a more relaxing environment with servers who bring you food and drinks . At a new movie theater, Casa Blanca in San Antonio, Texas, they offer a new way for customers to enjoy movies in comfortable reclining chairs. While, society is always offered…

The Grand Budapest Hotel is one of my favorite movies that recently came out. The movie was released under Fox Searchlight Pictures in February of 2014. Fox Searchlight Pictures is a branch company from it’s main sister Fox Entertainment Group making it an independent film company. Since it’s big sister is a well known company with great resources, Fox Searchlight Pictures has access to the great advancements in film production. Because they are the sister to a major film company, budget wasn 't…

used to increase the film’s actual effectiveness on the audience when coupled with the plot of the movie. The genre of a musical is so often done in a ‘real life,’ such as a high school, setting that when the sub-genre of a backstage or showbiz movie was used to express the normal musical plot points, it really created something special within the film. That something special is what has made this movie stand the test of time. The narrative of the film is good. The idea of showing…

Watching movies has become a favorite past time for many people. Especially in small towns where there is not much to do on the weekends or during the week. What it all comes down to is where do you want to watch a movie at? Why not watch a movie at home? Is the theater really your best bet?

The beautiful thing is that to everyone the definition of a meaningful life is different and unique. What we define as significant in this life shapes our actions and even our future. My mother has lived a life full of qualities that I define as a truly impactful life. Based on the image of my mother, a meaningful life to me is defined as loving…

We watch movies and read books with many characters in them. We watch how these characters act and sometimes we try to act like them. Sometimes we see characters that are extremely similar to us and it is absolutely awesome. I found that I am extremely similar to Almanzo from the book “Farmer Boy.” I keep reading and seeing his characteristics and I could not believe how similar our characterics were and I realized that his life and mine are extremely similar. I am extremely similar to to…

Not only this, but films that were made prior to the 70s were almost always avoided. Through the course however, I was able to gain a deeper appreciation for older films, as well as the knowledge that the analysis of films can make a simple okay movie into one that I wouldn 't mind viewing again. The course has also taught me about the ups and downs of the film industry throughout the world, giving me a sense of where we have come from and where we might be going. In 2013, there was an…

It is often thought that a film based on a novel will rarely fulfill the expectations of readers due to the vast differences and artistic interpretation that is incorporated into the cinematic piece.
