Based on the French novel D’Entre les Morts by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac, Vertigo is arguably one of Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpieces and the “strangest, yet most hauntingly beautiful film he had ever made” (Adair, 2002).

In 1958 Alfred Hitchcock released what is considered the greatest film of all time, Vertigo. Vertigo is a film noir thriller that stars James Stewart and Kim Novak. Stewart's character, Scottie Ferguson, is sent to follow and investigate his old friend’s wife, Madeline. He spies on her strange actions and at the time falls deeply in love with her.

The documentary Restrepo shares the same idea behind the words of the 31st president, Herbert Hoover, stating that “older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.” Hoover argues that most draftees do not have a choice but to participate in the war they are drafted to, regardless of whether the means of battle are perilous or if they have no incentive or purpose in fighting in the war. The youth are fighting not for their own causes or reasons, but for the ones of the older generation. The war in Afghanistan was a response to the attacks of 9/11 by Al-Qaeda and the Taliban and the war was the method employed in an attempt to disband them. Needless to say, the United States military experienced many hardships in this war.

The ideas of what a utopian society should look like changes when talking to different people in different parts of the world. More often than not most people would say that violence is not a part of this utopian ideal and that man has found a way to work past that and find a better solution to the violent issues we have seen in the past. Films in a sense are a way for artists to explore these utopian and dystopia ideals and present them to the public as a looking glass into what the world could look like. For many of us we live in a capitalistic society or a society with at least some forms of capitalistic ruling. Film makers in Latin America have used their position to critique and analyze the different forms of capitalism and how the

Part 1 - In American author's 2009 book, The Help, the primary thesis is the relationship between Black maids and white households in Jackson, Mississippi during the early 1960s. The story is really told from three perspectives, Aibileen and Minny are Black women, both maids, and Skeeter is the nickname of Eugenia Phelan, daughter of a prominent White family. Skeeter has just finished school and hopes to become a writer. In general, the relationship between the Black maids and the White employers is six sided: On one side we have the White employers who have three views: 1) Their personal and private beliefs that can range from extreme scorn and bias to kindness regarding race; 2) Their public persona that must have the "proper" attitude about Blacks and "the help," and 3) Their employer attitude, which is condescending and parental. The Black view also has three segments: 1) Their personal and private beliefs that usually range from understanding not all Whites are the same and an extreme love and empathy for the White children for whom they care; 2) The public persona that is deferential, polite, and stoic to their White bosses; and 3) Their attitude and view among the Black community, which usually separates the "poor and ignorant but rich" White souls from the Black view of family and common sense. All in all, the relationship is contentious, phony, and based on economic advantage.

Vertigo is a psychological thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, with a key theme of voyeuristic fetish and erotic obsession. The male protagonist, Scottie is depicted as the dominator in a heterosexual relationship with two female characters: Judy, who fakes Madeleine to seduce Scottie and deceive him to make false testimony for a planned murder, and Midge, the confidante of Scottie who is secretly in love with him. Through the interactions with Scottie, Judy and Midge are portrayed as submissive to the male dominance. The complete submissiveness and obedience expressed by Judy and Midge are conspicuously unnatural. However, such deliberate depiction may be read as deliberate exaggeration for emphasis of patriarchy order in heterosexual
