Eminem himself doesn’t believe too much in ‘pulling punches’ as his raps are often criticized for being heavy in homophobic content and rather misogynistic. While his lyrics are raw, violent and harsh, his…

For the purpose of this film critique, the barrel model and visual anthropology were used to aid in the comparisons of two movies that are decades apart. Both films were based on the novel “Cheaper by the Dozen”, but the two films are vastly different. The method I used to blend these two anthropological frames of reference was to fill out a few questions that relate with the films corresponding layer of the Barrel Model (Harris). This allowed me to analyze the films in depth, which challenged…
