Unknowable Nature Of The Silencio Club
The unknowable nature of the Silencio Club is obvious from the moment both Betty and Rita take direction to the place, which has solely been motivated by Rita´s unexplained dream. This break of the archetypal narrative is also suggested by the stylistic choices of the camera. On the way to the nightclub the camera begins to lurch forward while animalistic growls and rumbles play in the background giving a dream-like effect.

    Analysis Of The Shoe Horn Sonata

    Fran and her family are Spanish immigrants, and Luhrmann portrays them as coming from the ‘wrong side of the tracks’, literally by showing a train pass by their house. They are initially seen in darkness and the stark contrast from the glitz and glow of the ballroom world creates an image of the family as being rough and unrefined. However, as Scott spends time with them, they are revealed to be passionate dancers, and after spending mere hours with the family, Scott is accepted into their world, whereas Fran is yet to be accepted into the ballroom world after 2 years of dancing in beginners.…

    Blade Runner Film Analysis

    Cuaron’s use of cinematography throughout the film is a good example of how similar the film is to present day society. He uses a lot of tracking shots and long shots to give the viewer a good look of the landscapes of Britain. These landscapes are extremely familiar and recognizable, there’s nothing extraordinary, there are no flying cars, it is just the setting of today’s Britain. It introduces the idea that the future is today. Cuaron uses the familiar setting and landscape to reflect the current anxieties and chaos in present society. Mise-en-scene is used to construct the shot of Theo getting off the train onto the platform, the setting is populated with police and immigrants in cages, as well as a sign that asks for an ID card and transit papers. The scene is a reference to the xenophobic platforms of the train stations during the refugee crisis of 2015. Later, in the landscape of Bexhill, the refugee camp, Cuaron uses mise-en-scene to construct a scene of enormous cluster, with little lighting, and worn out costumes, to convey the destitution that refugees from 2015 have had to face in their trip. The tracking shot that is used, draws the viewer in to the scene and make them understand how horrible it is. Cuaron uses landscapes to commentate and convey his opinions on the fear and anxieties of modern society, as well as show how the future is…

    The Theme of Obedience in Pan's Labyrinth

    In El Laberinto del Fauno, Guillermo del Toro uses the theme of obedience to illustrate and condemn two repressive components of fascism: patriarchy and the coercion of free will. This essay will look at two examples of obedience in the film which reveal the abhorrent nature of these aspects of fascism and the importance of resisting them. These are, respectively, the relationship between Captain Vidal and Mercedes and Ofelia’s refusal to compromise her own integrity.…

    The Greasers And The Socs In The Outsiders

    In the novel The Outsiders, two members of the gang the “Greasers,” Johnny and Ponyboy, become muddled in a murder. There are two central gangs in the story, the Greasers and the Socs, who are antagonistic throughout the novel. Two characters in the novel, both from conflicting worlds, share an interest for admiring sunsets. Metaphorically, sunsets in The Outsiders provide comprehension about rival gangs, exhibiting that we are more akin to our rivals than we speculated, we are all a component of the equivalent world, and that everyone confronts hardships in life.…

    The Car Man Analysis

    Angelo is one of those outsiders and weak man, being push around by everyone, even his boss Dino. Even though Angelo is weak he has that look of a nice, gentle man. Rita likes how Angelo is as man, and we can see that she loves him deeply, because of the way their chemistry is felt. One of the scene that we see this love is when Angelo is push around by the other mechanics, he then sits down alone in a dark dim light on the middle of the stage. His facial expression feels cheerless and humiliated, also his hands on his laps, makes him feel isolated from the world. Rita tries to ask what’s wrong with him, but he refuses to tell her, Rita starts dancing to sheer him up and tell him that everything is going to be ok, and not to worry. Rita does a spiral movement with her body, which looks like a ballet dancer performing an Opera piece with a tutu; she does a stretch movement of her body to her feet abruptly. A routine that the love between the two characters is felt is when Rita extends her arm to Angelo, the two characters star dancing in unison with leaps and jumps, while at the end the focus ends at each other eyes and…

    A Comparative Analysis Of Gary Richardson's Barrio Chino In Costalo

    The author is able to reconstruct the way which the bad reputation of the Chinese district and of its bars in Barcelona has been created through a progressive political and social marginalization, but also through the storytelling about this place. Much of this imagery is constructed from outside the barrio by the urban bourgeoisie who generalize from the reputations of certain specialty bars rather than common neighborhood bars which serve as social centers for local residents. “The “myth” of the bars barrio chino became part of the interplay of cultural stereotypes that confirm the political, economic, and social marginalization of the area and its inhabitants. Indeed, as landmarks in the human symbolic geography of Barcelona, barrio chino bars appear to have become causes rather than attributes of marginality”…
