His plays have great depth and knowledge which are things that people in the modern society can learn from. Our poll from last week’s magazine has shown that a staggering amount of you that prefer modern adaptations of Shakespeare’s classics like 10 Things I Hate About You over the play itself. But in my opinion, these results aren’t appalling at all. Compared to the 400 year old play The Taming of the Shrew and the modern adaptation 10 Things I Hate About You, the modern adaptation is far more engaging to us. Despite the similar plot the modern music, casting, setting, costumes and humour make the film more relatable to viewer, allowing them to engage further with the characters.
The entire topic of the movie is a very sensitive one, so Cruise was exceptional in making the viewer believe that he truly just wanted to get his half of the money from Raymond, and not build a relationship with him. Rain Main was entertaining because it kept you thinking
Thomas Jefferson and Elizabeth Cady Stanton did a fantastic job in each of their pieces however some words can lose the readers in the process and take their minds from understanding the point to trying to figure out what a certain word means, and with that you can lose attention from the audience. Although it was acceptable back then because the norms for speaking and vocabulary were much higher than they are now, Barry is just relating to today’s average vocabulary. His style is centered on being informal and conversational. He is able to inform his audience of the fallacies of his kitchen and living room appliances and talk to them like they’re human, rather than talking at them as if he was giving a lecture. People don’t have that long of an attention span.
Death of salesman in class essay Hypnotization is a great technique used by writers as a way of keeping readers interested, as well as the complexity of the story itself; requiring readers to genuinely think about its meaning. Usually works that have a very simple story line such as in Death of a Salesman don’t get too much hype because of the lack of diversity in its composition, but this specific play succeeded in a curious way consequently entailing readers to think deeply about its value. On the other hand, hypnotizing as a skill is clearly shown in Big Fish in which readers are mesmerized by the ongoing different situations that are suspicious making the story line questionable in many areas about what is told is true or not. Big fish demonstrates how families have their different behaviors and ways of communication, in this story a character is known for always telling stories to other family members, but some stories are completely made up. The intriguing aspect about the movie is that people never know if Willy (father) is telling the truth or not.
Hamlet Movie Comparison From the two versions of Hamlet that we watched, Mel Gibson/Glenn Close and Kenneth Branagh; despite the fact they have the same plot but there are few differences between the both versions. Hamlet acting is really different in both versions of the movie. In Kenneth Branagh version we see the movie is done with strong emotions but Hamlet overacts in most of the scenes. We also see that Hamlet is not a calm thinker by watching how Hamlet amplifies his manners throughout the movie. In Mel Gibson’s version of Hamlet, Hamlet’s acting is outstanding because while watching the play we can see the effort and talent Gibson has put in the movie.
Lewis realises it’s not that hard to do and needs to be doing the instructing and directing of the play with influence and input from Roy and the patients not the other way round. This is where Lewis’ confidence really shows that it’s growing and he really starts to connect with the different patients and with the play cosi fan tutte. After gaining the confidence to be able to make decisions and direct the play mostly by himself with some help of Roy and the others, a few incidents occur. Doug sets the toilets alight, which has Justin wanting to shutting the whole thing down and asking a lot of questions about how this incident occurred. Lewis tells Justin it wasn’t Doug and it was an accident in fact to have the play continue and protect Doug from any consequences.
It provokes the thoughts that we know as normal, by using undistinguishable characters and objects, making us question what Matthew Barney was trying to express. The way Matthew Barney applies his scenes is very different from the more modern videos or movies we have today. I noticed that he used very long scene takes with a specific tune or music that accompanies each of the scenes which I did not like as it made the video feel very dull and stimulating. However, I liked how he kept emphasizing on his theme and what he wanted to deal with. I referenced from the other films and noticed that he also uses the capsule shape of the field emblem quite a lot not as the logo but things like the area, a window, etcetera.
“Nerds and Geeks” Popularity, being well known, and skipping school just to be a part of the “crowd” or the cool people. Though not everyone can be a part of that world, and that’s where the “geeks” and “nerds” come in. Their story and why we need them is exclaimed in Leonid Fridman’s piece, “America needs its nerds.” To make his point clear he uses satire, making it straight forward and humorous, also making it enjoyable for the reader. He uses an appealing set of word choice in his writings to keep the reader interested from the beginning to the end. Creating a relationship between the readers through pathos make Fridman piece a better read.
Though effective, the restlessness of the camera becomes confusing, slicing the action into short, sharp images that can mystify rather than illuminate. Such fervent action so soon into the film is dizzying and unexpected. Luhrmann attracts the audience with his lively cinema style, speeding up the action to hype up the confrontation and the rivalry of the two families alongside an intense soundtrack of contemporary and popular music. As a contemporary film director, Luhrmann clearly values the younger audience who would usually only come into contact with Shakespeare in a school environment. This could explain the roaring energy of car engines and elaborate guns instead of horses and swords originally used in earlier productions.
Building the character- I decided the character I play to be a young father who takes things seriously when he have to but have a fun side. It was easy for me to portray that because its more similar to my personality. Imagination- It was easy to imagine the scene because I have been on the other end of my character. I have been called to the principal’s office and have my dad yelled at me because of my actions, except he was not as easy going as my character. Emotional memory – I have been called to the principal’s office and have my dad yelled at me because of my actions, except he was not as easy going as my character.
