The film may have actually turned out to be a great if it wasnt for some of these issues that I’ll get to in a touch. As for the 2013 Gatsby, I left the classroom with a monstrous headache and a reaction of “Meh,” yet I’d probably like it more if I was to rewatch it, however it does have its saving graces, particularly in correlation to the 1974 version. The beginning of 1974′s The Great Gatsby does an extraordinary job of presenting the story in a purely visual manner. We see Gatsby’s extravagant house, his scrapbook of Daisy, briming of miscellaneous articles, his hairbrushes, and a picture of Daisy on his vanity, a man with a vanity? The start of Luhrmann’s variant opens with Nick in an asylum complaining about how individuals drank excessively.
This relates back to being an unwanted child, because flowers are beautiful and to Baby these fake nails are probably beautiful. She never had anyone tell her what was beautiful and what was not because of the fact that her father was not there for her the way a father should be, and he made her feel unwanted and not to mention, she also grew up without a mother. Conflict is a major literary element used in this novel. O’Neill makes that come to life through many different quotes, such as “I hoped that part of his therapy wasn’t to give up his interest in me” (67). This is conflict because already Jules makes Baby feel like she is not loved and that she is unwanted and to her the fact that while he is at this rehabilitation center, trying to get better, he might forget about her and make her feel more unwanted, than she already is.
Both have the same ideas, and both go wrong (one more than the other), and Pygmalion ends happier than Frankenstein. In Eliza Doolittle's fairytale, she ends up marrying Freddy because he loves her, in contrast to the tragic deaths of Frankenstein and theoretically his monster as well. Also, in both of these stories, the initial goal of each creator are reached
He also wanted to kick Rose out of the house but due to his wife’s sympathy was unable to after several occasions. He tells Rose that a dairy establishment is her new place to be but due to her ovarian cysts she could not leave. Hillyer also wanted both ovaries removed to make her less promiscuous. 3. The recognition/reversal in the movie Rambling Rose is when Rose realizes she needs to find her “Mr.
In Sullivan’s Travels, the montage of the casualties of the Depression that Sullivan witnesses underscores everything that the movie had previously eluded too. Like Sullivan, the audience does not appreciate how horribly that time affected people and those few seconds articulated the sentiment like no words could. The movie itself, made during the Depression, does what Sullivan realizes he needs to do—make a movie that gets people to laugh through the hard times. As Sullivan says, “There's a lot to be said for making people laugh… It isn't much, but it's better than nothing.” While in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, there is not one line that sums up the entire movie’s premise, there is a lot more than one montage to show us. The audience sees Mr. Smith fighting for something he believes in, despite everything that suddenly hits him.
It is unique for most film directors to do so, but for this film Spike Lee used his actors in perfect roles. I liked how he based the movie in one block so the audience doesn’t get confused from the story. Using one block instead of multiple cities was cool because he used multiple races to detail the story. With multiple races comes problems with
The 1973 animated film Charlotte’s Web is the original big-screen adaptation of E.B. White’s children’s novel of the same name. Unlike the 2006 version, which is mostly filmed in live action, this film is entirely animated, and done in the form of musicals. Charlotte’s Web is a decent movie that nevertheless has the unfortunate circumstance of having the 1973 animated version to be compared to. The animation, might be considered a minor classic, and a recent viewing of it helped me to understand why its presentation is sweet but it doesn’t pull its punches, and it clearly communicates its undercurrent theme, which is about the cycle of life and the inevitability of (mostly unwelcome) change; hence, Wilbur the pig’s fate, which resists a normal inevitability, is seen as a incredible deviation (Ankum).
Now she develops the family by making Walter feel proud about being able to run the family the way he wants it. She shows sacrifice in giving up not only her insurance money, but also her ability to run the family. Another example of Mama developing the family is when Ruth and Beneatha are talking in the house. Beneatha rambles on about how she doesn't believe in God and there is no such thing as God. Ruth and Mama try to calm her down and tell her not say such things, but Beneatha still talks about the silly idea of God.
How Poe influenced films is clear. In the 1930’s Universal Studios produced The Raven and The Black Cat. These failed to hold true to Poe’s style of writing. They were very good by themselves but compared to Poe’s original work, they differed greatly. But, in the Early 1960’s, American International Pictures produced The Pit and the Pendulum, The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Masque of the Red Death.
Some called it a failure, but now it is considered a kind of cult classic due to its psychedelic setting and “trippy” vibes. Magical Mystery Tour became an album only as an afterthought. The project was delayed because they spent so much time working on the song “All You Need is Love.” The album held six tracks and made eight million in the first few weeks. Though it was a huge seller, the album was also a letdown and was not well received by critics. Though the project was fun and the Beatles got to wear funny walrus costumes, it didn’t have the energy that is greatly respected and admired in Sgt.
