The people in the movie did not take being part of the government very seriously and that is why all of this mishap happened to begin with. Towards the end of the movie, Dave confronts the United States people about all the faults of the real president, Bill Mitchell. In the end of the movie everything starts to get cleared up and the vice president becomes the president directly after the United States people were told about Bill Mitchell’s death. That was a good way of using governmental power because they did not hide his death from the people of the United States. I learned a lot from this assignment.
The more the movie went into depth, the more stronger the similarities and differences presented themselves. As the stories of these heroes unraveled, comparing and contrasting the psyche, the brutality ,the moral and ethical conflicts in great war movies such as the “Lone Survivor”(Berg.2014), and “Apocalypse Now”(Coppola.1979), was not as hard as imagined. The psyche of a man in war is really captured in both these movies. Of the two movies,”Apocalypse now”() really captures a stronger sense of what war can do to a soldier’s mental status, one example of a deteering mind is Colonel Kurtz. This man reputation was one of the greatest to ever represent his country, he was the 4.0 kid who never did anything wrong and was on pace to be up at the very top of the ranks the military can offer.
Although all these views have reasons to state their claim one may decide that the blame can be laid on America. This is mainly because to a greater extent many tensions that existed before the cold war and during in the cold war can be due to America’s doctrines and polices. Firstly America can be blamed for starting the cold war through its president Harry Truman. When Truman became president in 1946 he introduced a hard-line policy against Soviet Union. President’s Truman s used a tough anti –communism but impressive style to convince the American s how dangerous and powerful communism could be.
Our interest in the parallels between Frankenstein and Blade Runner is further enhanced by consideration of their marked differences in textual form. Evaluate this statement in the light of your comparative study of Frankenstein and Blade Runner. Sample response: Prose fiction and Film Prescribed texts: Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, 1819 Blade Runner (Director’s cut), Ridley Scott, 1982 Introduction sets out the main argument:that the texts share common content, but changes in context, audience and form mean that the content is handled differently | There are many parallels between Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner. They both explore major questions about the nature of being human, personal identity and whether or not people should “play god” by creating other life. They share the technique of interior narrative, so we understand what the major characters are thinking and what the motivations are for their actions.
This shows that Rick really does not care about any of the politics happening and he just wants to go about his own business. The attitude Rick expresses at the beginning of the film is the same attitude most Americans had in regards to the war. It seems that Rick has allowed himself to become cynical because he feels that his earlier engagement with Ilsa, fighting against fascism in Spain, was a fool's game. He feels used and bitter, and he is convinced that he has been betrayed when he really was not. Although Rick starts out as a very selfish man who could care less about the politics going on in the world around him, he gradually changes throughout the film to become the unselfish man we see at the end of
Although both Preston Sturges and Frank Capra use imagery and comedy to deliver messages in their respective movies, Capra’s ability to express his ideas in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington regarding perseverance conveys a much more poignant message, despite Sturges’ more recognizable views about smiling through the pain in his movie, Sullivan’s Travels. The comedic elements of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and Sullivan’s Travels add to the theme of each movie, subtly giving away major plot points. Both movies draw the audience in with the use of farce, such as when Sturges has Sullivan and his companion pushing each
Druggies are stereotype by their actions because they don’t obey authority, get in trouble, and don’t focus in school. The movie Pineapple Express shows this stereotype because their stupid and don’t obey the law. Druggies are stereotyped by their appearance because they smell, and don’t care how they look. In the movie Pineapple Express shows this because the main characters smell and dress how they want and don’t care. Another stereotype of druggies is their dialogue because they don’t speak proper English, laugh at everything and cuss all the time.
Initially, they are unsure of each other, and of just how much they can share with each other, but as the story unfolds, we see more of a friendship beginning to evolve, for example George defends Candy when Carlson is threatening to kill his dog. Also, when George disapproves of Candy and Lennie spending time with Crooks, we see an interesting authority from George over the other men, and Candy is ‘crestfallen’ when George scolds him. ‘Well you guys get outta here. Jesus, seems like I can’t go away for a minute.’ This shows the power George holds over them, perhaps because he is the leader almost of the dream, and they all greatly trust him. In comparison, the relationship with George and Curley’s wife is almost the opposite to his friendship with Candy, as there is no trust or ease between them.
Most of the film’s composition is so dark that you can just see the actors’ reactions. At the end of the film however, when Vassilij finds Tania, a bright light illuminates their reunion. This is evocative because, like Fly Away Peter it reinforces the concepts of hope and love in the film. Both texts use journey motifs to emphasise the nature of war, even though each text employs a different type of journey. “Fly Away Peter” has a journey of self discovery.
At first Lennie takes the beating without puting up a fight, but when George says "Get em Lennie!" pg. 63, he grabs Curley's hand and breaks it into pieces effortlessly. Instead of getting in trouble from the Boss, who is also Curley's father, all the guys threaten Curley to say he got his hand stuck in a machine or else they will tell everyone how he really broke it. So even when Lennie hurts another person, he still shouldn't take responsibility for his actions because his brain has been trained to listen George's every command since he has been there for him all his
