How can one film connect to many people around the world and appeal to their emotions in an immense way. With the use of the Italian Neo-Realism films did just that. This movement allowed filmmakers to represent life as it is lived by the people. Normal people were given to chance to watch real world problems on the big screen. The movement Italian Neo-Realism was born at the…

Entertainment is a form writing that can be read in silence, spoken out loud, acted out under a single stage light, heard from the mouths of the radio through music, seen in a dark theater, shown on the television, or quickly placed on the screens of a hand held device. It can be calming, loud, annoying, humorous, exciting, sad, and eventful. Entertainment is many things and has taken many shapes through the history of society. It would be implausible to say that entertainment has the capacity…

Scream season 3 takes its cue from the recent Scream Halloween Special. There is a new psycho killer in town and no one knows who it is. Many speculate that Brandon James is still alive.

Modernism and the cold war can be regarded as the twin shaping forces on cultural production in the 1950s. When some ardent practitioners tried to move beyond modernist art, others retreated from it, but it remained the defining aesthetic paradigm of the decade. As historical mode modernism became institutionalised in the 1950s as established by the Nobel laureate trio comprising the modernist writers Faulkner, Eliot and Hemingway. Kitsch and modernism were deeply entangled during the period.…

Wednesday 18 October which I also attended, is interested in publicising Polio during the showing of the film “Breathe” at the Savoy Cinema in Heaton Moor. “Breathe”, as many of you will know, is a biographical drama film. It tells the story of a young man who became paralyzed from the neck down by polio at the age 28.

In this essay I will argue that the interactions between robot and human in the film represent contemporary relationships between men and women, specifically those that involve the dehumanization and sexual-oppression of women. This can be seen through the allegory of the Turing test, which is not only meant to determine Ava’s humanity but also her value as a woman; and through the inferior…

Outsiders: Movie v. Book S.E. was in high school when she wrote the book the Outsiders . Also fun fact about the movie is the scripts were taken right out of the book. I would say that the book was more effective, and had a lot more details. The movie was good but I didn’t like how they skipped a few parts that were in the book. While the book and movie have many similarities and differences, the ( book ) was more effective in telling the story. First of all is the scene where the rumble…
