One of the smaller ones but one that drives the romance of the story would be beauty of simplicity. If one looks at how simple Fay Wrays character is in the way she acts, she's a pretty face but isn't presented with much of an attitude she's just there to look pretty literally. How simple it was that she was found on the streets by …. and she happen to want to be in his movie as a pretty just for her looks and her bravery for going on such an adventure. Her beauty captured many, her demeanor even won the captain's heart towers the end of the voyage to the island. Without even trying she made him fall in love with her, there was just something about her she couldn’t resist. Another reason the beauty of simplicity is a noteworthy theme is for the reason that even the monster ape King Kong was captured by Fay Wrays appearance and beauty.

    Film Analysis: Indiana Jones The Raiders Of The Lost Ark

    Watching the movie Indiana Jones The Raiders of the Lost Ark was great to feel like you're there. And you can tell there a relationship between Jones and Marion because they seem to have already met and have a past relationship and to pick up back where they left off and helping with that happening in the movie helped me find the theme of the movie i’m not gonna lie was very difficult but I found a couple of possible themes one theme I picked was action. Action because there was a lot of action in the movie with all the fighting, guns, fire, and jumping i thought that if they took out of that then the movie would be like ten to five minutes long. Another theme i thought was a possibility was mystery. Mystery because they go on hunts for treasure…

    Film Analysis: Django Unchained

    In the movie Django Unchained there are moments in which still occur in modern times unfortunately. It’s about a slave named Django who partners up with a German bounty hunter, as the story goes on African American slaves were tortured, killed, and in my eyes treated like they weren’t even humans. I believe in modern society some things like this happen still. For instance, I support our police department no doubt, but just in this year we have had some bad cops kill African American people. In my eyes, some of them were still committing minor crimes and the police took it to far by abusing and sometimes killing the suspect. Taking their authority and force to far, but i’m not stating all Police officers are bad because they aren’t. It relates…

    Planet Of The Apes Film Analysis

    The style of the film can be debated and compared with the style of the original Planet of the Apes (1968), directed by Franklin J. Schaffner. Matt Reeves decided to focus more on the apes being the central part of the story. “The organic scope of the digitized character creation is breathtaking, using the technology to tell the story from the point of view of the apes, who remain the primary focus of the narrative.”(Kermode, 2014) Mark Kermode even goes on to say, “From its origins… to this state-of-the art 21st-century 3D-CG cinema outing, the darkly satirical Apes saga has proved both resilient and flexible.” (Kermode, 2014) A. O. Scott describes the cinematic quality of the film as having a type of grave, almost brooding beauty about it,…

    Film Analysis: A Clockwork Orange

    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…

    The Revenant Film Analysis

    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.…

    King Kong Comparison Essay Example

    The original 1933 King Kong was created as a movie: to convey a story and entertain and audience. Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake took the foundation for King Kong and expanded upon it in almost every way in order to “make again” the amazement of the original for a modern audience. Audiences received the original King Kong very well. The stop motion sequences of Kong were amazing for their time and the movie grossed $90,000 in its opening weekend. In order to bank upon its success again sequels were made and then in 1976 a remake was made to improve upon the original. Paramount updated the movie to color, changed the story, and cast Jeff Bridges, a well-known actor of the time, as the lead. Although the movie received mixed reviews, it did very well in the box office and tripled Paramount’s initial budget for the film. Even though the movie wasn’t “as good” as the original, audiences still went and paid money to see it because of that hope that they would feel like they did when they saw the first King Kong. The remake also brought the movie to the new generation that had missed the original.…
