The films‚ ‘The Butler’ and ‘The Intouchables’ are representations of the ordeals that African American’s were forced to go through in the past years and the implications of such experiences to the current production of films. It is without any doubt that because of the inferior status that was given to African Americans‚ most films that are produced today exhibit African Americans to be of a lesser status (Toledano and Olivier 5; Ager and Aubyn 1).

Hoosiers Film Analysis Why I selected Hoosiers Let me first begin by saying I am a huge sports fan. I played almost every sport growing up and have always loved watching sports‚ in particular college basketball and any type of football.

"Trockadero Land"‚ but without the Trocks’ magnificent sense of timing and joie de vive! I too agree that the scenery (and many of the costumes) are simply so ugly that they constantly distract.

As a solution‚ the U.S. used propaganda to spark patriotism and fear among American boys. For example‚ in a propaganda film it shows a young man receiving a threatening

Of Mice and Men is a great film directed by Gary Sinise who also played the main character George Milton. With Gary Sinise acting in the movie there is Ray Walston who portrayed Candy‚ Joe Morton who portrayed Crooks‚ John Malkovich who portrayed Lennie Small and many more.

In fact‚ “several related scenes follow each other to form sequence” (Goodykoontz & Jacobs‚ 2011‚ Sec. 5.3). In this case‚ the frame by frame sequence of shots used in this clip allows movie viewers to see what is most important at that moment. For example‚ the movie viewers would see a relaxed nature
