The blockbuster film Ocean ’s Eleven‚ released in 2001‚ was the first film of a trilogy of heist films directed by Steven Soderbergh. This big budget crime-thriller remake of the 1960 ’s Rat Pack favourite conveys the intricately thrilling plot where Daniel Ocean leads a rag-tag group of con artists and ex-cons for the monumental heist of 3 major Las Vegas Casinos.

An individual detailed analysis on the style‚ editing techniques Mise-en-scene and cinematography in the film "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind". Michael Gondry’s Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (2004) is not your typical Hollywood rom-com. Its cinematic style is very original and by far out of the ordinary for its genre.

Comparison and Contrast Recently while watching two old film classics‚ Vertigo and Notorious‚ I found myself thinking of other movies directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Most of his movies have many things in common‚ while remaining completely independent of each other.

Which leads me to believe that Alfred Hitchcock really knew what he was about; as a result his films all a have a distinctive

film about justice and loyalty. Hell or High Water is impressively robust with clever‚ dialogue-driven suspense!! Chris Pine is convincing as beautifully country and rather James Dean at times. I cannot rave more about the cast‚ screenplay‚ and cinematography. It is a well-told story about brothers‚ family‚ loyalty‚ justice‚ grit‚ good guys‚ bad guys‚ and sacrifice with some funny lines and hefty action along the bad guys’ epic plan‚ which is also the good guys’ pursuit. I forecast this as nominee

Directoral Auteurism of Frederico Fellini‚ Satyajit Ray‚ and Alfred Hitchcock Auteurism is a term first coined by Francois Truffaut to describe the mark of a film director on his films.

What makes me tick ? The question “What makes me tick?”‚ seemed a simple one at first‚ as we were just told to write about our hobbies and passions which I found illogical as this was meant to be a creative task. After some deeper thought and deliberation the idea hurtled toward me! It sent me into an uncontrollable spin‚ head first‚ down an endless well of alien self reflection. I have never pondered about the question of what makes me tick. I had to contemplate me‚ down to my core and all its
