Question 20 on the 2011 pass paper, critical essay. The movie 8mile explores in great detail countless emotions from beginning to end. The movie is based around a young rapper called Jimmy B-Rabbit Smith, who is stuck a rut and is struggling to make a success of his life. He has been brought up with racial abuse and is surrounded my violence and drugs everyday of his life. He lives with his mum and her boyfriend in a trailer park due to his dead end job.
He reminds me of the famous comedian, Chris Rock as he tries to tell Cain not to worry, because once he gets the book deal, they’ll move to a better neighborhood. But every time Cain has to go to the center for rehab, Andrew is not always there to go with him. Compared to what his little brother wears, Andrew is spiffier; he richly clads in black shoes, a white long sleeve shirt with black dress pants. Angela Rodriguez has also done a great job with the make-up. The best actor is Andrew Dillemuth, who plays the younger brother.
Victor was jealous of his friend Thomas. Victor felt that Thomas remembered more good things about his father than he could remember. Victor thought that his father was there more for Thomas than him. Victor expresses his feelings while riding on the bus and several other times.

While in the dark, dreary, congested truck, filled with “groans and muttered prayers,” his father advises him to think of something pleasant. Surprisingly, Amir does not consider Baba; his memory goes directly to Hassan. This thought is incongruent with the way he strives for Baba’s attention and recognition in his daily life. After much struggle, Amir finally achieves this glory the day he wins the kite battle. Given Amir’s previous actions, it seems that this would be the day he remembers; the day he finally makes his father proud.
Good Will Hunting is an astounding movie that adjusts ones perspective on life and the lives of others around us almost immediately. From the very beginning it captures you’re your attention by grabbing ahold of many emotions. It is a story focused on the life of a brilliant young man named William Hunting. William Hunting is not someone who knows Professor Lambeau or someone who attends the daily lectures of M.I.T, but is someone who spends his life, his career for that matter, cleaning the halls of this institution. Will has more skills than what it takes to clean hallways and bathroom stalls, in fact he is a pure genius and is the person who completely solved the problem mentioned in the quote above.
The leaves and snail are gone and have been replaced by a glowing red tree, which represents her growth. The film Click is about Michael (played by Adam Sandler) who is a workaholic and neglects his family’s issues and responsibilities, to make his life easier, he buys a universal remote control, in this film the change is about learning personal responsibilities. Onomatopoeia is used in the title ‘Click’ which gives the viewer an understanding of the film and how important the remote is. The casting in this film plays a very important role as Adam Sandler is a comic actor whilst in this film he plays a serious role, but still manages to make the audience laugh. The humour is also really important throughout the film because it highlights the seriousness and breaks the film down into a less dramatic movie.
Although he is not actually terribly ugly, he does have unusual, extremely dark eyes. Actor, Robert Carlyle plays Gaz as quite a larrikin lacking the responsibility and maturity needed to spend the time with his eleven-year-old son that he so desires. It is also revealed amongst his friends (with surprisingly minor consequences) that Gaz has been to prison before. Gaz does care for Nathan, his son and shows this through the film. In fact, Gaz’s primary motivation for the strip show is to raise the money for payments his ex is demanding from him so he can continue to see Nathan.
I think he did this because, he wanted to get bigger roles in movies and not get small roles that know one noticed him. I think James Stewart became the most famous when he did movies with Alfred Hitchcock. I think his two best movies were Vertigo and Rear Window. I think he was a perfect fit for these two movies because, he just seemed like that type of guy in real life. He continued making films into the late 60’s until his hearing problems got to
A Better Life won six other awards and was also nominated for one Oscar. Some movies are funny which makes you laugh till your stomach hurts and some movies makes tears roll down your eyes. A Better Life is mainly about a father, who struggles as a gardener to find prosperity in the eastern L.A. I really enjoyed the movie and the actors of the movie fit the characters. Demian Bichir plays the character, as Carlos Galindo.
Adventureland will escape a possible future tarnishing as it differentiates itself from the other ‘Teen-Indies’ by virtue of its setting. Mottola’s film is set in 1987 in a run down theme park called ‘Adventureland’. James (Jesse Eisenberg) is forced due to his father’s demotion at work in to spending his entire summer working as a ‘carny’. A demeaning job that the intelligent James is willing to suffer through if it pays for his brighter future at Journalism school in New York City. Adventureland’s 80s setting is not used to mock the mad hair and crazy clothes.
