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. Gibson knows what his lines are and he exactly knows what his actions are. His acting is so natural because while he was acting the audience can feel the pain he is suffering through. Another difference in both versions of the movie is; in Kenneth’s version it does not seem that the play is acted in the theatre, but it is done by professionals. Kenneth’s version is filmed as Hamlet family is very royal and rich; also the house is a mansion.
Nonetheless, Hitchcock was keen to consider the 22% of theatres worldwide which did have sound, and predicted that more would follow. Alfred Hitchcock was known for his manipulation of viewer expectations, and sometimes did this by intentionally withholding sound information to heighten curiosity. In Blackmail, he uses dramatic iron by allowing the characters to keep secrets from us, and each other. The viewer is cued early in the film – when Alice laughs as the doorman whispers into her ear – that some information is going to be kept from us. This is the opposite of dramatic irony, where the character knows something the audience doesn’t.

It is difficult to hold prosecutors accountable for acts of misconduct. Since prosecutors are often viewed as the “good guys” by the public, many times unethical, as well as illegal acts will be tolerated by the courts and criminal justice system as a whole. Prosecutorial misconduct is considered any action taken by the prosecutor in a criminal case that is against the law and/or unethical. Prosecutorial evidence can be anything from harassing witnesses on the stand, pressing unfounded charges against defendants, tampering with evidence, withholding evidence, up to taking bribes. Prosecutors can sometimes get away with misconduct as it is extremely difficult to prove that misconduct had actually taken place.
Exposing violence in the media teaches bad morals and is not supported by the greater good of society. In the show “24”, the main character, Jack Bauer is effective and powerful in saving America, by using torturing methods. The message sent is, “..as long as the tortures manage to choose the correct victim…those who know a lot and those who know a little spill... information within seconds after pain starts-which is not a common occurrence”(Cusac 140). The show makes scenarios look so unrealistic, that you can’t determine what the truth is and what is make belief. Some may say, “Its unfair competition.
Through this irony, the psychoanalyst would clearly be able to see deceptiveness, and also the insight which Iago has into the minds of those around him, presented through his ability to identify flaws, such as the jealousy that lies within Othello, and he can manipulate them to his will: seen through Iago's assistance with Othello's transformation into the monster he has become. Iago is not at all amoral: in fact, he even tries to justify his slander against Cassio mid-way through the text, by trying to convince himself that he has been 'cuckolded' by Othello, when he himself knows the only thing that he really wants is revenge. This portrays how Iago ironically longs to maintain his image of respectability and honesty, when he is aware of how manipulating and deceitful he truly is. "Iago: ...One of this kind is Cassio.” In sleep I heard him say, 'Sweet Desdemona, Let us be wary, let us hide our loves“(Shakespeare, 2005, 3.3). Iago's insight is
Douglas Sirk focused on getting the audience to feel the emotional turmoil of the characters lives. The portrayal of characters that are caught up in their feelings of anxiety and denial was a recurrent theme. According to Kolker (1999, p119) Sirk was known for enhancing or exaggerating these aspects of melodrama through “already exaggerated characters and mise-en-scene”. Sirk uses mise-en-scene to echo, represent or exaggerate a characters life, feelings, thoughts or personality. His stylistic features aid us in making meaning or responding to the films and the characters.

Movies, offer action, adventure, drama, comedy, some history and even fantasy. The big draw, however, are all movies provide some measure of escape from reality.
David Wark Griffith, “the father of film technique,” is and always will be a man of great achievement in the world of cinema, and can be considered one of the most influential figures in film history. Griffith did more than any individual to establish a narrative language for film, and create a fully articulated form out of a seemingly insignificant entertainment medium. He developed and utilized several techniques throughout his works such as, but is not limited to, the 180-degree system, cut-in shots, and his unique narrative structure. Though D.W. Griffith utilized the 180-degree system often, it was not invented solely by him, but certainly developed out of the experiences of several directors. The system was essential in maintaining the direction of movement during a film and so characters would not “bump into themselves”.
