    The Portrayal Of African-Americans In Hollywood Movies

    The first scene of the movie, in which Tariq and Sparks are together in the car, demonstrates that Hollywood movies portrays African-Americans men as criminals. In this scene, while driving by, Sparks smokes weed, even though he doesn’t know what kind of drug it is, and Tariq advises him the best drugs he could get. “… I call that Alice in Wonderland. You’d be lost like Alicia out this bitch” (Tariq). Next, they start talking about “horny women” and how easy they can get any women they want. After few miles the car stops in an abandoned warehouse, then, they get out of the car and Sparks puts a black mask on, Tariq thinks he is exaggerating on using a mask.

    Canadian film Assignment 2

    From the period of the mid 19th Century Aboriginals and Natives in America have faced widespread stereotypes and omissions as well as outright being the ones suppressed in society by the Western white colonizers, what can be seen here is a trend on how the public has been fed with films that display and antagonizes the First Nations people. However as society changed and became tolerant there has been a new surge of cinema that has commissioned itself to resolve the issue of misrepresentations and stereotypes of the aboriginals.1 The question we ask ourselves is, is this process really working and if not do they produce even more problems? An example of this problem we are presented with is the 1991 film Clearcut which is about a lawyer who loses an appeal against the clear-cutting of native land which in turn angers the native community. Arthur one of the more extremist natives decides to kidnap the logging mill manager and later on kidnaps the lawyer as a means of punishment and torture.2 The film itself portrays the punishment and torture of the captives as a series of trials for them to understand nature and to inflict the same pain that they did to them. This film brings into question on the many problems this type of cinema represents in the aboriginal community. It presents to use the exploitation of native lands, the general stereotyping of natives in cinema, and the eventual way to solve the problem representation.3…

    Similarities Between The Cameraman And Buster Keaton

    The Cameraman directed by Edward Sedgwick and Buster Keaton is about a man who is smitten with a women who he just meet. This 1928 silent movie is a not only a comedy but also a romance which stood the test of time and is relatable to modern audiences. (2) A shot that contains the essence of the film is when Keaton arrives at MGM after filming the street war, only to see he has “forgot to put film in the cameras”. To me this movie showed that what can go wrong will go wrong, for Keaton, but that is what made it so funny to audiences then and now. He was so determine to get the shot and impress the girl he risked his life, only to return with an “empty” camera. Everyone is gathered around him with his new monkey on his neck, and it is unveiled that the…

    latinas in hollywood

    Hollywood is a space that promotes life in the United States. Hollywood is the space that creates stereotypes that create the notion of the “typical Latina, Asian, Black, etc.” Hollywood wants to create racial authenticity for each race, and it has been able to successfully as it has differentiated races. There is an attempt to create and manufacture racial authenticity through ethnic women in Hollywood. Hollywood pretends there is authenticity in order to enforce the existing racial hierarchy, and Latinas have to learn to navigate this type of casting in order to survive in the industry. In order to gain access in the Hollywood industry, Latinas have to embody their stereotypes such as the harlot, the female clown, and the Latin lover. Hollywood has become a glamorizing industry that has a huge influence in manufacturing and maintaining images of racial authenticity; therefore, an industry where space is created for celebrities to constantly change their identity in relation to fame. Latinas, being an essential part of the film industry, change their identity throughout their career; hence, I would like to observe the transformation that occurred in the careers of Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, and Jessica Alba since it is evident that Hollywood influenced their identity and how they carried themselves in order to make a presence in Hollywood and become who they are now.…

    Throughout the years Chicanos have had to face many adversities, perhaps more than any other minority. Chicanos are considered to be those that are of the Mexican decent or of that origin, with that being said California had and has always had a vast population of Chicanos for many decades. Nowadays the triumph of many Chicanos and even other Latinos is very well seen in the Hollywood world due to the reason that times are different and many things have changed when you compare it to the early days of Hollywood.…

    Gender Roles In Hollywood Movies

    It can be inferred that learning from others has become the default form of learning in today’s society. We as humans acquire new intelligence every day, potentially without realizing such. Growing up, a child will attend school; there they will focus on developing the skills of a student: taking notes, memorization, performance, and others. In addition to this, children will also learn social skills, such as being a friend, or being a bully. Growing into adulthood, these children will develop their own sense of identity; choosing their style, friends, likes, and dislikes. As many Hollywood movies depict, cliques begin to form. This being a network of friends who share the same interests and features in common, many times resisting others…

    African Americans In Film Essay

    African American directors are not highly compensated for their work because some people consider some of their movies “too afrocentric”, which results in them not being able to get sponsors to help pay for their movies. Many Black directors are not highly sponsored by investors. According to The Washington Post, “Many sponsors are white and they are not interested in their movies or in the current black experience or the black culture” (Harwell). It isn't just the Academy that votes for who wins the awards are white, many of the sponsors and executives in the studios are as well. This is a problem because this means Hollywood is a predominantly White industry. White Hollywood will also continue on telling African Americans stories. In Merle…

    The Spirit Of America Film Analysis

    One of the biggest mysteries facing American society in the past, present, and future is what and who defines our ideal. The American dream may seem like a foregone concept in this day and age, but the various different characteristics that comprise this ideal or myth are still alive and well. Many of our films portrayed this myth, and have led me to a conclusion on what I call the Spirit of America. The Spirit of America is an unyielding and powerful force that has a high standard of self and others, but knows when to be emotional and empathetic. The Spirit of America is honest, protects the weak, stands for equality for all, and is one with nature and others. Lastly, the Spirit of America has an eye on the past and the future, and concerns itself with best practices and progress, whether these things can be drawn from the past or will be developed in the future.…

    Film: The Role Of African Americans In Film

    African Americans have a unique history with motion pictures one that many people would find racist and wrong. The first time an African American was put in a film they were portrayed as individual that was inferior to the rest of the cast. Now African Americans have leading roles in films that have won academy awards. The type of roles that are played by African Americans have drastically changed for the better. It wasn’t for them to earn respect in the film industry, rather it was a long and agonizing process one that required folks to change their ideologies. It is different now to when all the films about this race had a prejudicial feel to it. Racism in the film industry was at its peak during 1900-1970. There was two ways where blacks…

    The Shadow: A Common Archetype In Film

    The shadow is a common archetype in movies and in stories. The shadow reflects a deeper element of our psyche and is the dark side of the person. Everyone’s shadow is different, because not everyone is alike. So my shadow will be different from my sisters, and it is what we want crave to have, and is usually the evil in us.
