Statistical Validation Process Of Non-Related Film

I attended a production of The 39 Steps. The two act play was an adaptive parody piece derived from the 1935 Alfred Hitchcock movie based on the John Buchan novel; originally conceptualized by Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon, it was then adapted for the stage by Patrick Barlow. Additionally, it paid homage to Alfred Hitchcock, in that the play seems to include a representation of almost every famous scene from a Hitchcock film. Eric Harrell, the Producing Artistic Director, described the play during his introduction as, “Alfred Hitchcock meets a spy novel meets Carol Burnette.” After viewing the play, I would agree that that is a fairly accurate assessment of the over-all tone of the production; however, I would have substituted Monty Python

The United States has become one of the largest empires in the world for the production of agricultural products. In order to keep the rapidly increasing demands of the consumer met over the past sixty years technology has had to revolutionize itself from the inside out. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the “Averaged annual U.S. retail Choice beef price ($/lb)” has doubled since the early 2000’s. History has shown that there is a wide obsession around the idea of cheap and easily produced food. It is also suggested that the techniques and practices used for this intention are making substantially negative impacts in our societies. Fresh is an important documentary film by Ana Sofia Joanes that highlights multiple

The text, or more so the movie about the text, The Help by Kathryn Stockett, does a good job of portraying race, class and gender. During the setting of the book, many people looked at white Americans to be superior to the Black, African American race. With this being said, the successful white families hired in the African American women to cook, clean, and in most cases, take care of the children. They were known as the help. Throughout both the book and the movie, the African American women experienced many forms of gender, race and class inequality.

As I was watching the documentary, I learned so many things about this program called “ The Bracero Program”. I would never know that people would change their routine life to go through this horrible process to produce more money for their family such as wife and children to survive in Mexico. The reading that I choose for the assignment was “culture”, I saw the documentary “Harvest of loneliness“ and there was many connective point that were related points with culture and the documentary. In the reading “The Nexus of Language, Communication, and Culture” in the page 271 because in the reading it explains how culture differs people and make separating area or space for different type of people.( The Nexus of Language, Communication, and Culture,

The beginning of the opening credits is almost the same of the other movies that we have watched in the class, but what makes the beginning of this film famous is the attack of bandits on the village.

In this documentary, director Kirby Dick sheds a bright light onto one of society’s most hushed-up subjects--rape. Specifically, rape on some of the most prestigious college campuses in the United States. Institutions such as University of Tulsa, Florida State University, Arizona State University, and Oklahoma State University are only a few of those under fire for their methods of handling sexual assault reports. Likewise, the film does not spare Ivy League universities such as Harvard and Yale, exposing their investigation track records right on screen. The documentary The Hunting Ground is very effective in bringing attention to the reality of sexual assault on even the most popular college campuses through personal interviews, statistics, and testimony from former college officials.

The Express is a 2008 sports film directed by Gary Fleder starring Dennis Quaid and Rob Brown. The film takes place in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s and portrays the struggle of Ernie Davis on his voyage to become college football’s first black Heisman Trophy winner. The film shows how young Ernie Davis struggled before moving with his mother to New York where he began to play football. He excelled at football and earned interest from Ben Schwartzwalder, the Syracuse Head Coach. In his freshman year he was placed as the starting running back and lead his team to the national championship where he faced biased officiating due to his race as well as not being allowed to enter hotel's while traveling to road games. I will prove through the

In this documentary Food, Inc. directed by Robert Kenner, it talks about the meat industry such as Tyson and Monsanto. The film focus on the food industry and how it has change over the years. In this film the targeted audience is mainly Americans who buy the food supply. Robert Kenner says the food industries are hiding what is in our food and where we get it from. The film asks the question, “How much do you really know about the food you eat”? The purpose of the film is that we need to find out where our food comes from and also why the food industries do not want us to know. The information showed in this film such as written text on screen, interviews and hidden cameras in chicken and slaughterhouses makes the film accurate. This engages the audience on believing everything said and shown in the film. Food Inc. reveals that companies only care about the profit, not the animals, consumers, workers, or environment.

Like Water for Chocolate is a totally enchanting movie that has a dreamlike quality. But there are several suspicious actions in the movie, such as mother’s insistence and Pedro’s choice. It’s somewhat hard to understand why Tita’s mother block Tita from getting marry until she died, compare with mother’s sweet smile as gravida. But from the angle about love, we can understand that mother’s insistence is general in the Latin American culture. Likewise, mother’s insistence cause Tita that she was leaving with Pedro with the “shroud” in the middle of the movie, and challenge her mother’s authority. Additionally, we can understand why Tita went back to take care of her mother, why Pedro and Tita still cannot be together, even though she knows

“Our criminal justice system, on paper, is the best in the world… but we're human, and so we make mistakes. If you execute and execute and execute, at some point you will execute an innocent man.” - Randall Adams Belgian documentary filmmaker Jean-Pierre Dardenne was quoted as saying that “in documentaries, you're confronted with reality; you can not manipulate or move it”. The documentary film genre has always been at the forefront of cinema, providing insight into humanity at its core. The focus of my study is documentary film with the purpose of bringing an injustice to light, in the hopes that the film will help galvanize the masses, particularly in regards to criminal justice.

A Class Divide, a video filmed 14 years after the murder of a historical figure and leader, a group of former classmates coming together with their families to join their former 3rd grade teach, Ms. Jane Elliott, to re-watch the day that she decided to show them all, first-hand, what discrimination was and what is did to people. The lesson was taught in the days following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in April 1968. The video they watch will show Ms. Elliott splitting her classroom into two groups, brown eyes and blue eyes. On the first day of their lesson the blue eyes were given the upper hand. They were praised for the things they did and they were given special privileges. The brown eyed children were not given these privileges

Over the past decade globalisation has been viewed as a concept in its promise of cultural and economic collaboration, of democratic unity in diversity- in turn Globalisation invites and resists what is perceived as coercive imperial conformity. Therefore, it is no shock when director Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu seized upon this newly sacred subject and portray it in a unique and unprecedented manor. The film weaves four interconnected plotlines set in four different countries. Juxtaposing many aggressively contrasting narratives, settings and characters, Babel portrays both the impacts of globalisation on the modern world and the effects it has on the individual. The film is unprecedented in the respect that it fascinatingly

The poster of the movie “The Business of Recovery” has a picture of a pill that signifies drugs, and money falling out from the pill suppose to show the people that they will spend a lot of money on drugs. It says “A dose of reality” on the top part of the poster, because this is a documentary that tells the people the truth about what the drug rehabilitation center was doing to the drug users and their families. They are making them pay tons of money to help themselves or their loved ones recover from drug addiction. However, they are only making them pay for something that often resulting in the failure of recovery. I am enjoying this movie poster because when you look at it at first it will be intriguing about what does this movie is all

Twitter has been segmented since the creation of the company; they tend to have a consumer base in the age group of 13 to 35 years of age. The age group of 13 to 35 tend to spend the most money, however this consumer base taste tend to be very inconsistent. Twitter is experiencing a maturity phase. In the maturity phase, there is little growth and the profit margin has reached its highest peak. If present circumstances are any forecast of the future, Twitter Inc. is in the early portion of the declining stage. In the declining stage there is no growth and the company spread sheet starts to show the company in operating in the red or negative.

Throughout this class, various discussions and blogs have been used to analyze the different elements of films such as theme, cinematic techniques and genre. It is time to bring all of these separate elements together in the analysis of one specific film, according to class text, “analyzing levels of meaning below the surface story can greatly enhance enjoyment as well as understanding of a film” (Goodykoontz & Jacobs, 2014. p. 10.03). There are several different approaches to film analysis including formalist, auteurist, and generic or any combination thereof. Utilizing a genre theory lens, the 1956 film The Searchers will be analyzed addressing contextual information, story/plot, aesthetic choices, social/personal impact and how these areas come together to develop the film.
