subjects like racism with the film Get Out or to empower women with the release of Wonder Women. However, before the film is released the industry uses trailers to promote their films, trailers are promotional devices through showing scenes from the movie but, holding enough information back to pique the interest of the viewer trailers are quite short in length compared to the films they promote; because of this they do not necessarily communicate the same story. In a short amount of time…

trilogy magnificently and it has since become the greatest mobster movie ever made. 8. The 'Matrix' Trilogy ("The Matrix", "The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions") This dystopian sci-fi trilogy created and directed by Lana and Andy Wachowski opened the door to “bullet time” visual effect. The Matrix’ visual effects as well as the philosophical and religious references made it to the 13th spot on The Guardian’s best-sci-fi-movie-of-all-time list. 7. Back to the Future Trilogy (Back to…

Although significant, genre is not a fixed idea in film. There are many grey areas when subgenres, subversions and hybrids are included. A single film can cross over many genres and therefore cannot be put into a single category. For example Tim Burton’s movie Corpse Bride, released in 2005. It would be wrong to solely consider this a romance film, even though the conventions of the romance genre are greatly emphasised. Corpse Bride includes characteristics of a musical and a horror film. This…

Having said all of this, before drawing any conclusions based on Céu’s multilayered evocations of the virtual and its oscillations between the “no longer” and the “not yet,” I would like to turn to the other two films and to the notion of the ordinary, which, along with the virtual, is central to contemporary documentaries. Excavating the Ordinary Although Céu’s characters are unique, and in a sense extraordinary, we can also think of Sérgio Borges’s film as an immersion into the ordinary world…

“Just as painting before it, cinema presents us with familiar images of visible reality- interiors, landscapes, human characters-arranged within a rectangular frame.” - Lev Manovich Films have become central dissemination of popular culture in and around the globe over the eons. They invite imagination and story- telling among all peoples and help to enlighten and enliven the audience beyond the boundaries of society and also open sometimes closed doors on…

Gary Sinise did a great job bringing the book Of Mice and Men to theaters. He gave each character a different personality and did great as playing George. Gary Sinise did everything that a five star movie needs to have and had other things in the movie which made the movie so great. The hook in the movie was good and had a very suspenseful tone to the scenes. The hook starts of by showing a girl in a red dress running. From reading the book we know that Lennie grabbed onto her dress and…

1. Thesis statement a. The 1998 version of The Parent Trap is a soundtrack film with many nostalgic aspects in the music, which changed the way audiences viewed this version of the film compared to the original 1961 version. 2. Use of nostalgia in film a. “As texts move through history, they encounter new audiences, are placed in new contexts, or gather new historical and cultural resonances. Thus, the political and social function of texts’ nostalgia inevitably change.” (Dwyer, 2015) i. This…

The evolution of editing began when the Lumiere brothers invented the Cinematographe in 1895. This device allowed users to capture, process and project footage from the device itself (B. Retchless, n.d). Early film makers would play a continuous unbroken piece of footage which was shot from a static position, once the footage had finished they would reload the Cinematographe and continue playing the next sequence of film. This resulted in a laps of time between the viewing of footage for the…
