John Travolta (53) who got his breakthrough with Saturday Night Fever and Grease delivers great acting in this movie as a mob hitman. Samuel L. Jackson (59) is just one of the few Hollywood stars in this movie, known from Star Wars as Mace Windu, and one of his most recent movies; Snakes on a Plane. Uma Thurman (37), whom I must admit I never heard of before she starred as the Bride in both of the Kill Bill movies (another Quentin Tarantino directed movie), performs great in this Hollywood cult movie. These are just a few of the actors starring in this movie filled with Hollywood stars of all classes. The movie shows us 4-5 stories about several persons slowly getting woven together creating incredible, funny and bizarre incidents which you never would have expected.
The Byrnes, however, are straight, too concerned and conservative. All of actors give an outstanding performances and the script of the movie is quite good too, it wouldn't be a lie to say that you'll feel like laughing in every scene. No matter how rude or crude references it has in it, "Meet The Fockers" is also incredibly funny. You'll be definitely cracking up. It's one of my favorite movies and indeed one of those rare comedies that are funny throughout the whole time and you can never get tired of.
THE MARLON BRANDO QUOTE BELOW IS TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA's PAGE ON ELIA KAZAN: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elia_Kazan Marlon Brando, in his autobiography, goes into detail about the influence Kazan had on his acting: I have worked with many movie directors – some good, some fair, some terrible. Kazan was the best actors' director by far of any I've worked for... the only one who ever really stimulated me, got into a part with me and virtually acted it with me... he chose good
Melvin was definitely portrayed as at least an ambitious man by the mostly low angles of him. This allowed for the times of his weakness to be especially impactful. This ‘dream-within-a-dream’ storyline allows for autobiographical honesty and political and social poignancy dealing with racism and unresolved prejudice. A white boy born in the nineties can only go so far to analyze the social commentary of a different time and a different race, but from the history books and fiction, I’ll take a crack at it. Obviously, there was police brutality involving African Americans in the time that this movie was portrayed, and that was the major turn-off of “Song” to the major studios.
Conflicted Characters: Rick Blaine vs. Sam Spade An Analysis of characters in Casablanca & The Maltese Falcon played by Humphrey Bogart These characters made Bogart's career. Undeniably among the best films ever made, these characters launched Bogart's career to top leading man status. Although the films feature entirely different story lines there are subtle similarities in each character and retain the iconic Bogart style. Richard "Rick" Blaine in Casablanca is a very complex and mysterious character. Throughout the film he undergoes a transition which allow the viewers to see his different sides.
The phrase "breaking the mold" is used somewhat frequently in movie reviews, often by overzealous pseudo-critics desperately clinging to a belief that their new found favorite film charted some sort of undiscovered film-world territory. Every now and then, however, there is a Hollywood product that truly lives up to such a phrase. The 1994 sophomore project by Quentin Tarantino, with its nonlinear storyline and quotable dialogue around every turn, is certainly one of them. Though laced with language and subject matters that some folks may not agree with, Pulp Fiction delivers unforgettable acting and a driving soundtrack which, when combined, result in a film to experience rather than just watch. The uncommon writing style of Pulp Fiction can be described most clearly as three stories and three smaller vignettes that are interwoven to produce one larger allegory.
Fincher is also remembered for being the director of the films The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Panic Room. Fight Club appears to be a typical cult film or fight movie at first glass but upon further review you will easily see that there is much more than meets the eye. This movie is chock full of in depth main characters and a very heavy theme throughout. Though it yielded poor box office results there is a reason it was nominated for an Oscar and several other prestigious awards, as well as receiving rave reviews from critics nationwide. My analysis will start out by discussing the movies’ two main characters, Jack and Tyler Durden.
But when he did use it, he was good at it, and it was he, more than anyone else, who made the twist ending big. We mention that because "The Necklace" has the most famous of all of Maupassant's twist endings – which is also why it's his most famous short work. Though he was already well-known in France by the time he wrote it, in the English-speaking world his initial fame rested largely on this little jewel of a story. It was a particular hit with Americans, who couldn't get over how cool the ending was. In fact, the story led to something of a twist-ending fad in popular literature.
Not only the fact about the movie being based on a true story to give it an edge, but the cast and crew were especially admirable. Aside from the experienced acting some of the cast already have, a few like Erik J. Berg, who played the role of ghost boy, Jonah, have only starred in a few films and T.V shows, as well as the kids in the movie played by Sophi Knight and Ty Wood. The character of Matt Campbell, played by Kyle Gallner, was absolutely splendid and kudos to Amanda Crew who played Wendy, the cousin of Matt. All in all, this mainly stars the Campbell family who had no choice but to relocate due to the expenses they had to pay for when Matt was diagnosed with cancer. When they found the Aickman
She would be a good nominee for the role of the Neighbour because of the kind nature of the characters she portrayed in her previous films.
