Movie Review Of It’s A Wonderful Life
Words: 622 / Pages: 3

.... sorry for him. I thought that Lionel Barrymore played Mr. Potter commendably. He really seemed to fit the part. As the audience, I grew a strong grudge against him, from the beginning. Clarence, an angel, was sent down to save George from doing evil by committing suicide. The angel saved him in many ways. George didn’t commit suicide, because he was too busy saving Clarence. Clarence took him to "Pottersville" and showed him what the world would be like if he was never born. That saved George in a way as well. George learned what he had to be thankful for. I thought this film to be very intellectual. It told a wonderful story, yet tau .....


Stand By Me: Review
Words: 426 / Pages: 2

.... died and this reminded him of his brother. The tune stopped abruptly when his father came in and asked if he had found what he was looking for. The last example of moodsetting was when they found the dead body. This tune was played by a synthesizer. It was a very sad tune and was one that may have been played at a funeral at one point in time. The other type of music I found was song scoring. Since the story took place in the 50’s of 60’s, most of the songs were from that time period. They usually came at points in the movie when nothing much else was happening. Either that or it was source music coming from the radio in the car. It mostly .....

.... As we take a closer look at the theme that is expressed by Kane’s ex-wife Susan we learn that things weren’t always what they had seemed. Thompson meets with Susan at a nightclub and questions her about Kane. She remembers that Kane "was really interested in my voice. What do you suppose he built that opera house for? I didn't want it. I didn't want to sing. It was his idea. Everything was his idea, except my leaving him." Her flashback tells of her singing lessons, her operatic career, and their final days together at Xanadu. .....

.... his only purpose I life. He is admired and used by others for his knowledge, The audience becomes aware of this admiration when the soldiers use Horatio the speak with the ghost. Marcellus says "Thou art a scholar; speak to it, Horatio" ( 1.1.42). The soldiers need Horatio because he is an educated man. As a man of thought Horatio has a significant role in helping society. Fortinbras is a man of action. He takes action before he thinks about the consequences of his actions. The king is making use of these characteristics when he says "we have to writ to Norway, uncle of young Fortinbras—Who impotent and bed-rid, scarcely hears of his .....


The Use Of “Foil” Characters In Shakespeare’s Hamlet
Words: 1330 / Pages: 5

.... battle and Laertes father Polonius was slain by the hand of Hamlet. These three near identical situations give rise to three very different courses of action (or inaction). It is here that Laertes and Fortinbras display their true purpose in the play. If we first examine the acts of Fortinbras we can see numerous occasions when the brave and instinctive actions of this character reflect poorly upon the character of Hamlet. For example although we do not see Fortinbras’s initial reaction to his fathers death, we know that from the outset of the play he has already set out to avenge his fathers death. “...Now, sir, young Fortinbras, Hath in .....

.... to loan money to one who totally ruined him in public, on terms that were nicer than his normal business terms.

I would be friends with you and have your love, forget the names that you have stained me with, supply your present needs and take no doit of usance for my moneys, and you'll not hear me! This is kind I offer.” -Shylock Often, this quote from Act 3 Scene 1 line 83, “Why, there, there, there, there! A diamond gone cost me two thousand ducats in Frankfurt! The curse never fell upon our nation till now, I never felt .....


A Clockwork Orange: Good Riddance To Bad Rubbish
Words: 962 / Pages: 4

.... crime rate. In Clockwork . . . , there are unquestionably violent and graphic actions. Multiple beatings, a rape, and a murder are performed by the lead characters. These crimes are drug induced. Before going out, the gang goes to the "milk bar" for some "milk plus" which is riddled with amphetamines. The first violent act came not more than ten minutes into the movie. It was when the boys, led by Alex, beat a helpless wino that asked them for some change. The gang then strode away as if nothing occurred. They struck him repeatedly with canes and they kicked him a few times to the job. Next, the boys went to see a rival gang. This other .....


Movies: A Thematic Analysis Of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho
Words: 1490 / Pages: 6

.... with a view of a city that is arbitrarily identified along with an exact date and time. The camera, seemingly at random, chooses first one of the many buildings and then one of the many windows to explore before the audience is introduced to Marion and Sam. Hitchcock's use of random selection creates a sense of normalcy for the audience. The fact that the city and room were arbitrarily identified impresses upon the audience that their own lives could randomly be applied to the events that are about to follow. In the opening sequence of Psycho, Hitchcock succeeds in capturing the audience's initial senses of awareness and suspicion while allowing it .....


King Lear: Searching For Vision
Words: 1667 / Pages: 7

.... lost his sanity with the loss of his daughter Cordelia and this is the thing that breaks Lear and leads to his death. In the beginning, King Lear shows his need for praise is how he chooses to divide his kingdom among his daughters. The one who praises him with the most "gusto" shall receive the largest area of land. This is even more evident when you consider that he already has divided up the kingdom before the praising even begins. As evident as he gives each daughter her land before hearing the next daughter's praise. Thus the who thing is just a show and an ego boost to himself. It is because of his love for praise that makes him r .....


Reflections On Ipi Ntombi
Words: 441 / Pages: 2

.... the news that the wedding is off. Most of the men are in suits and have hats on their head. The women have dresses. The music has dramatically changed, from the beating of the native drums, to some more modern off-beat jazzy tunes. The instruments included horns, woodwinds, and other modern musical instruments. The paved road and closed space of the modern city is very different from the open tropical forests of the Zulu tribe. The start of the their act is in the city’s church. The young man’s father, the tribe leader, has decided that his son is now allowed to have a wedding in the city. In the church, it looks like the modern and tra .....
