    Watching the movie Indiana Jones The Raiders of the Lost Ark was great to feel like you're there. And you can tell there a relationship between Jones and Marion because they seem to have already met and have a past relationship and to pick up back where they left off and helping with that happening in the movie helped me find the theme of the movie i’m not gonna lie was very difficult but I found a couple of possible themes one theme I picked was action. Action because there was a lot of action in the movie with all the fighting, guns, fire, and jumping i thought that if they took out of that then the movie would be like ten to five minutes long.

    Stunning scenes of landscapes, trees, and clouds fill the scenes of The Revenant. Snow fills the open-void of the wilderness and sunlight bleeds through the spaces between the tall, dark trees. The camera mainly focuses on Hugh Glass as he attempts to take his revenge upon John Fitzgerald, who murdered Hugh’s son. The camera pans smoothly during calm shots of vistas and nature, while the camera rapidly shakes during the intense attacks of the Native Americans. Rivers flow smoothly, and in some shots, Hugh’s fearful, beaten face fills the frame as he struggles to evade the threats of Native Americans. The contrasting nature of the scenes in The Revenant is effective in immersing the viewers in the environment, portraying a message of conservation, and developing a captivating, simplistic storyline.…

    The American fur trade began before the revolution and was very prominent throughout our early years as a country. As stated by Peter McMillan “The future of North America depended on the flashing paddle and the beaver trap as much as it did on muskets and bayonets”. Furs gave us a sense of value, where people could take the furs they had and trade them for better items, or items for survivability. With a basic knowledge or understanding people who had no particular set of skills could become a trapper and earn a decent salary or more money than the average fishermen; a lot of people left jobs so that they coud have a shot at a small fortune. This new found freedom and source of revenue brought forth a lot of interest from people abroad looking to migrate to America. Once the Treaty of Paris was signed people were allowed to cross the channel. This allowed for America to bring bright new ideas to this brand new world.…
