    The film opens with a close up shot of Alex dressed in white with gray suspenders showcasing his false eyelashes on his right eye and with the brim of his pork pie hat tilted slightly downward. His ominous blue eyes peering right through you as if you did not even exist. Slowly the camera pulls back as Alex takes a sip of drug laced milk revealing the type of company he keeps. His “droogs” as Alex called them were seated next to him on a bench in the Korova Milk Bar. The Korova Milk Bar was decorated with nude figures of women posed as if they had fallen backwards and they attempted to catch themselves by putting their arms behind them. The flats of their stomachs doubled as a table where glasses of milk could be placed. Other nude statues…

    Every movie and TV show is different but they all share one thing in common, cinematography. Cinematography is how something is shot. Within cinematography are three categories; photographic aspects, framing, and duration. Photographic aspects are the concrete decisions that deal with specifics of the photographic elements; contrast, the difference between black and white and light and dark; exposure, the amount of light per unit area; and tonality, the amount of contrast there is. Framing is what defines the image which include angles, levels, and height. Duration is the period of time that a production lasts for. I could go in depth about all these terms but that is not what this paper is about.…

    Run Lola Run (Tom Tykwer, 1998) is a film that is edited together in a way not necessarily for traditional continuity editing, rather to create meaning for the shots in the film. It is edited at a very fast pace, leaving many shots to be only one or two seconds long, with the main focus being on the film’s various attractions to get meaning across to the viewer. This type of montage aligns specifically with Sergei Eisenstein’s theory of intellectual montage and dialectical montage in order to create the meaning it does, as well as the varying use of his other techniques of film montage: metric, rhythmic, tonal and overtonal. Run Lola Run makes use of both Eisenstein’s theory…

    “ Metropolis” directed by Fritz Lang is a science fiction, futuristic style film. It is about the socioeconomic differences in the futuristic city of Metropolis, between workers and the men who designed and ran the city. Its main character Freder is the son of a man who manages Metropolis and has been privileged to live a very luxurious life until he sees a beautiful women, Maria, who leads him to beneath the city, where all the workers of the city toil. He sees the cruelty and deaths of the workers and the machines that do this to them. He decides that he must become the voice of the workers. All the while this is going on, there is a rivalry between Freders father, John Frederson and Rotwang, an inventor for the city and an archenemy. They both at one time loved the same women, Freders mother, until she chose the richer man, John, and then died during childbirth. Rotwang since then has been on a quest to create a new love, so he creates a robot and once he sees Maria he knows that he is going to transform her into his new robot love. Rotwang and his robot woman encourage the underground workers to revolt which leads to the cities power generator bursting and flooding the whole city. Finally Rotwang and Freder battle for Maria and the people of Metropolis, on top of a cathedral and Rotwang ends up falling to his death. Freder becomes the mediator between the workers and the minds of the city. In the end Freder gets his girl and there is peace between the working class and the upper class. The main message of the film is, “that the mediator between brain and muscle must be the heart”. This illustrates the differences in classes of Germany at the time between the Weimar Republic and the people. The Weimar Republic became the center of power in Germany and during the Republics regime there was much turmoil and “economic chaos.”(Ladd, 88). This is represented in the film between the men who run the city and the lower division of…

    This essay will take an in-depth look at the history of Hollywood during the late 60s and early 70s. This period of time is considered to have been a renaissance for American cinema, and was titled the ‘New Hollywood’ by cotemporary critics of the time. In order to understand the changes that Hollywood went through the late ‘60s, you first have to examine the preceding era of Hollywood filmmaking during the 30s and 40s. This was a period that is commonly referred to as Hollywood’s Golden Age; when the dream factories were in full swing and the audiences were in regular attendance. This period of time could be defined by a number of social, political or economic contexts, but it’s the filmmaking practices that were employed at the time which…

    The movie "A Bronx Tale" is obviously set in the Bronx and sets a young man Calogero Anello, "C" against the trials and tribulations of growing up incorruptible, in a neighborhood of mob crime and wayward minors. The movie holds characters that fit delinquency terms such as chronic offenders, and characters that fit theories such as the choice theory. Calogero at the end of the movie seems to have an identity crisis as mentioned by Erikson in his theory. Also characters show signs of being latent delinquents, and some characters seem to attribute their actions to the social learning theory. The movie as a whole is a great sign to see the varying degrees of delinquency especially in urban communities. I think the movie also gives people…
