Julia seduces Tito to advance her singing career. The last theme is marriage seen as a sexual repression since Tito is constantly lying to his wife about the many girls that he has slept with.

The deception makes the play entertaining

For both Frankenstein and Bladerunner, the texts clearly convey both the time in which they were produced and illuminate why their composers chose the format through which they convey their concerns of the dangers of scientific knowledge and the inherit goodness of humans and the impact of life experience that provokes change. These two ideas continued as paramount concerns during both periods of time in which these texts were written and still resonate with society to this modern day.

After the performance he made Fanny one of the well known 'Ziegfield Follies' for the 1910 edition and helped boost up her journey of becoming a star. If it wasn't for Ziegfield she would of still become a star, but publicity does make everything. Ziefield gave a twist to her. Instead of giving her the typical girly girl beautiful dress songs, he gave Fanny her signature song "My Man" She had done comedy throughout her career so far and now Ziegfield gives her a sad song to sing.

Music, Film, and Cartoon “Music and art are similar concepts as they are both trying to explain and express ideas through abstract mediums” (Gilbert, 2007).

STYLISTIC ANALYSIS ASSIGNMENT: In the following stylistic analysis of Juno (Jason Reitman; 2007), I will be looking at the question; “How do the four elements of cinematic style communicate the theme of the film and influence the spectator’s responses to the story?” By looking at the film’s stylistic system, namely; the characters, editing, sound, cinematography, and mise-en-scene, I will demonstrate how the cinematic style allows the individual audience member to relate with different characters in this film as well as bring across a theme, which could easily be a typical drama, as an uplifting comedy. The film Juno is based on a “mature beyond her years” sixteen-year-old girl who falls pregnant and needs to deal with the complex choice of what to do next. She ultimately decides against abortion and instead chooses an adoptive family for her unborn child, yet this film does not focus solely on the idea of pro-choice/pro-life. The film then follows her through her pregnancy, dealing with high-school life, family dynamics, and relationships beneath the surfaces. This film brings about a serious subject matter with mature themes dealing with teen pregnancy, abortion, and adoption in a new and fresh way.
