A producer seeks to fulfill the viewers of its generation and society so he would modernize aspects of The Catcher in the Rye to be sure to make a successful film The time period of the book would still be used in the film, as done before in movies such as The Great Gatsby, to create and maintain the theme or plot setting for the movie. Clothes, slang, cars, places, walking street, subway etc The issues or actions in The Catcher in the Rye are still problems in today’s society, such as smoking, under aged drinking, education conflict, and the classic boy-girl complications that may be a question we never know. With the similarities between the 21st century and Holden’s life in the early 50s, a producer has the ability to bring to date issues such as smoking cigarettes by possibly changing the tobacco to a more relatable drug in today’s day in age such as marijuana. The producer’s creation may also consist of more sex appeal in the clothing of women
The technological aspect of film changes the way the myth is distributed, but the core idea of the myth is the same. The basis of modern storytelling in both cinema and television lies deeply rooted in the mythological tradition. Many contemporary and technologically advanced movies often rely on ancient myths to construct narratives. The Disney Corporation is notorious among cultural study scholars for “reinventing” traditional childhood myths (Koven, “Folklore Studies and Popular Film and Television: A Necessary Critical Survey”, 176-195). While many films are not as obvious as Disney fairy tales in respect to the employment of myth, the plots of many films are largely based on the rough structure of the myth.
In Books II: Halifax to Hollywood, she (Rebecca Solnit) took a great deal of time looking at 20th Century explosion and wars, along with the reaction of the people to it. While also leading up to how Hollywood portrays that in their movies and how (in)Accurate it may be. Something as major as a war or an explosion could easily change someones views from being all about god, and how he protects all, to now believing Survival of the Fittest. Movies could portray someones motives as being a 180 of what they really were, and Solnit looks at this compare and contrast seemingly through the pages, culminating towards the end on how things change for people in disaster. EXPLOSION In the morning of Dec 6, 1917, Gertrude Pettipas decided to look
In the extraordinary outlandish film “Powaqqatsi”, created by an astounding and adept filmmaker Godfrey Reggio, humans were shown gradually becoming more civilized and technologically enhanced. Thus, pouring light into an immense relationship between technology and the development of freedom and equality. In another case, imagery and music was utilized and therefore stirred emotions of the audience. However, not only that but, filming techniques and astonishing editing led the movie to become astronomically different than modern films. Despite all this, the use of organized imagery was revealed by displaying third world countries in the opening, then slowly changing into advanced society, thus leading the film to become increasingly varied and diverse.
What had been unleashed in 1917 was a revolutionary wave corresponding with the rise of socialism, trade unionism and Marxism in otherwise “successful” capitalist societies. The ensuing chaos in many of these countries during their attempt to establish a new form of government appeared to be enough to convince many Americans that alien radicals (particularly Communists and Fascists) should be identified, arrested and deported. They feared they could potentially pose a threat to the “American” way of life and freedom. During this period in California, many of the larger studios were being built up by former refugees from Fascism (Paramount, Metro Goldwyn Mayer, Warner Bros). They tended to steer clear of politics and concentrate on entertainment.
This pursuit of knowledge and progress is not unlike that of the Nazi regime. Composed post WWII, the film also holds totalitarian overtones represented through Tyrell’s creation of a creature “more human than human” and Chew’s blindness to the ethical ramifications and moral obligations of his work (“I only do eyes”) in creating the eyes of the new human race (i.e. the future). Furthermore, Scott hints at the regressive nature of science through the interwoven elements of film noir and science fiction. The film also shows façades of twinkling, awe-inspiring lights with corrupt, dirty
Civilizations resemble The Revolution of mankind which had changed its qualities and values over time ever since the period of human socialization where people learn how to interact with each other. In our current society, even though a high level of education, Science and government has been reached, but just like an antique bottle that seems strong but fragile, our civilized society can easily fall apart due to causes such as the inner potential of brutality within individual that can be brought out under critical situations, the fear of the unknown which brings along misjudgment for people and the loss of legal guidelines which keeps society together by defining what is right and what is wrong. In the beginning of the novel Lord of the Flies, when the boys first arrive to the island they were portrayed as bunch of peaceful and innocent British school boys. By knowing that they might not get rescued and the fact that they were being isolated from the outside world and facing the task of surviving the island’s wildness without any supervision from the adult/grownups, the boys had to adapt with their surroundings and came up with their own rules which replicates survival of the fitness in which only the strongest or the one with the most
The advancements of science and technology though seen as positive innovations by many, others believe them to be negatives, especially in the time of the Industrial Revolution. The constant search of new technology and science, allows for knowledge that can exceed the capacity of what a man or human can comprehend. A certain capacity of what man understands is predetermined and crossing past many of the boundaries can lead into a foreign world. These thoughts mirror the thoughts of Mary Shelley who wrote Frankenstein during the height of the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution made a lot of changes in the world at the time and made the changes often and fast, which scared many.
Within “The Moulin Rouge” there is a combination of genres and filmic techniques conjured by movie mastermind Baz Luhrmann, which are indicative of an obvious struggle between the opposed Bohemian and Bourgeoisie ideals. Demonstrated by the values of characters throughout the Bohemian Revolution, we see the conflicting nature of material based priorities opposed to Bohemian views in key moments of the film. These moments in the film reflect the varying genres of Romance, Comedy, Tragedy and a Musical that are created by filmic techniques to aptly reflect the views of certain characters. Before the Bohemian Revolution, there was an existent class-based society of the aristocratic who inherited wealth and were born into status and the class of peasants who were destined to live strenuous lives carrying out manual labor or living on the streets. As the Revolution commenced, there was a rise toward a Marxist based society of classes by the Bourgeoisie, who were determined to make their own wealth and then mock the exclusive aristocratic class.
