Red Tails Movie Analysis
Historic are not always very accurate however the five movies Pearl Harbor, Red Tails, Hacksaw Ridge, Saving Private Ryan, and Alone in Berlin do a good job in portraying important events of World War 2. First of all, Pearl Harbor clearly shows Japan’s attack on U.S naval base, Pearl Harbor. It clearly shows how surprised the U.S was and how they were not prepared for an attack like that. But it also show how good the U.S men were at working under pressure they did everything possible once they were under attack. Although they were clearly defeated, they showed their courage and intelligence. The movie Red Tails does a good job in portraying discrimination of black men in the air force. Black men were training to become fighter pilots but

    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.…

    Historical Inaccuracies

    • 557 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The historical inaccuracies of Pearl Harbor were significant compared to the actual events. The movie romanticizes war and fighting in general for purposes of entertainment, where in reality the attack was violent and a gruesome experience. It was geared towards romanticizing the movie by having a love story involved then the actual war. In the movie it shows the sun high in the sky when the attack was done on Pearl Harbor but the Pearl Harbor attack took place on Sunday morning which makes this one of the most significant inaccuracies. The tables would have been turned because if the attack was taken place during the day time the U.S. military would have been more prepared for the attack. In the movie it had shown kids out side playing baseball…

    The bombardment of Pearl Harbor is seen as significant not solely because of its level of catastrophe, but also considering the fact that it caused Americans to join together in a war effort. Before, Pearl Harbor, the country was divided due to the fact that not all Americans wanted to be a part of World War II; however, after Pearl Harbor, the decision to go to war became unanimous. Pearl Harbor motivated Americans to fight for what they believed in, even after World War I debilitated them of most of their supplies. The tenderness Americans felt can be best explained by the words of fleet Chaplain William A. Macguire "Don't say we buried our dead with sorrow. They died manfully.…

    The final part of Perkowski’s analysis outline is evaluating the social and psychological role of the vampire for the time period it was originally intended for. Since this film was released during the 1980’s it is viewed as being in line with many people’s beliefs at the time that family values were declining, as divorce rates were high, and people believed that these values needed to be re-established in society. Additionally, people believed that this problem could be blamed on and was due to the hippie generation, which is why the film also contains many references to hippies, including the music Michael and Sam’s mother Lucy listens to and the marijuana plant that their grandfather has in his kitchen. Michael, Sam, and their mother are…
