Another example of betrayal in the movie Mean Girls would be when Cady gets all of Regina’s good friends to turn against her. Another good example would be when Janis Ian gets mad at Cady because Cady starts to get sucked into the popularity, this also shows betrayal. These all are examples of betrayal that portray the theme “you have to be careful who you trust”. In the play Julius Caesar the character Cassius is plotting against the main character Julius Caesar. Caesar thinks Cassius is a good man and that he will not cause any trouble.
- Halle berry plays a hooked stripper that suffers from multiple personalities and triumphs from her mental illness with the help of a patient psychiatrist. c. Purpose: Don’t write: “I will review this film” but rather, include your purpose in a statement that will make it clear to the reader. For Example, “Reviewing a classic action film like The Bourne Identity is always challenging because these kinds of movies develop a cult following of fans who are no longer able to watch from a objective perspective.” d. Main Point (Thesis): This is a statement that includes your “overall assessment” of the film. Remember that you want to go beyond saying it is “good” or “bad,” but instead identify specific story and/or visual elements that inform your opinion of the film. For Example, here is Maslin’s overall assessment of Fight Club: “The director of Seven and The Game for the first time finds subject matter audacious enough to suit his lighten-fast visual sophistication, and puts that
Nadia Symanova she was thought of the victim, because she was kidnapped, but her and her parents stage the whole thing just to make a movie when she comes from behind and wins the whole tournament. She was a young up and comer but greed got in her way they blamed it all on the Russian government at first but was later found out by Stevie and Susan. The main conflict is (Person vs. Person, Person vs. Society, and Person vs. her/himself.)
Celebrities are criticized on their appearance and how they act and so there are expectations that they have to uphold. In Spoiled the conflicts that arise are mostly triggered by the paparazzi. Molly just found out that her biological father was a world-famous movie star and she knows how easily people are to judge of a new face in the media. She was more afraid of how the public would think of her rather than how her own father or half-sister may think of her. That says a lot about how strong the media can influence society.
His other films include The Trial (1962), Fear Strikes Out (1957), Tall Story (1960), The Matchmaker (1958), Pretty Poison (1968), and The Black Hole (1979).

Through this movie you get to experience a variety of stories that are tied together with a centralized theme. I enjoyed the fact that the romance of the 50’s is still very true to romance of today although we have fallen far from the class and well-spoken poise that is Grace Kelly. The story then is still the same story now; the girl always wants the boy who doesn’t want her. In this case, the well-established socialite model wants the dirty photographer. It is the classic tale of “you want what you can’t have”.
Sondergaard was an accomplished actress, whose career was halted for 20 years thanks to the Hollywood Blacklist, but her exotic beauty was in favor of Margaret Hamilton's more traditionally "witchy" look (Turner Movie Classics). Buddy Ebsen, best known today as Jed Clampett from TV's The Beverly Hillbillies began shooting as the Tin Man, but he was hospitalized with a near-fatal reaction to the silver paint used for the character's make-up and was replaced by Jack Haley. Jack was the father of one of the producers of the film. Even the role of Judy Garland was almost given to child star Shirley Temple, but the attempt to get Shirley never went through because of contract problems. Casting was not the only problem.
Don’s Party takes us back to 1969 to the night of the Labor Party’s victory as John Gorton was announced the new Prime Minister of Australia. This 1976 ‘ocker’ comedy was adapted from the play of the same title and filmed in Sydney. Philip Adams and Bruce Beresford joined forces to put one of the most evocative plays onto the big screen. These ocker films were introduced in the early 1970s and riddled with “swearing and course language, drunkenness, an obsession with bodily functions, beery mateship and the accompanying derision of women, anti-intellectualism and a violation of custom and ethnic/religious beliefs” (Murray, 1994). Don’s Party includes all of these elements, placing it up there as one of the cult Australian films simply for representing Australian’s as they were.
Less than 200 years ago, Americans hunted the flamingos. The irony lays in how the 1950's attracted the American people for an entirely different reason. The flamingo was pink and that was bold. In a time where the Depression all they knew, pink and boldness gave the generation hope. Pink is ironic because it is usually associated with a feminine quality, but all bets were off in the fifties.
You may be an average white-collar worker in the real world, but you will become a beauty who dates with Leonardo DiCaprio once you indulge yourself in a film; an alluring spy who dies for the enemy she had irresistibly fallen in love with is also a good choice. In the so-called The Golden Age of Hollywood, which lasted from the end of the silent era in American cinema in the late 1920s to the early 1960s[3], films had been categorized into various genres according to the masses' different reveries. Prolific and remarkable those films may be, the profit paramount notion leaved no room for the director's own imagination and talent. The successful film Gone with the Wind has changed three directors in sequence. The commercial standards keeps tightening.
