The cast was game, McG clearly knew how to shoot and edit a flashy action sequence (and he loves those long takes), and it had a nice assemblage of colorful heroes (Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, and Lucy Liu) and colorful villains (Sam Rockwell, Kelly Lynch, and Crispin Glover) with a Tim Curry cameo to boot. The film is lively, colorful, and clearly a labor of love for producer Drew Barrymore (who insisted that her angels not use guns). Despite a troubled production (among other things, Bill Murray and Lucy Liu didn’t get along) and a delay from summer to November of 2000, the film snagged a $40 million debut and eventually earned $264m on a $93m…

The movie Rain Man has always been and will always be one of my favorites, even though I was very young the first time I saw this movie and when it was released in 1988. The very first time I viewed Rain Man, I was in my late teens and had an overwhelming affection and attraction to the movie, and what it was all about. Perhaps that is why or what my fascination with psychology and my wants to go into the field at an early age began with. Rain man had so many messages one could derive from it, so it's hard to choose just one. However, acceptance is the boldest, most memorable message I took from Rain Man this last time I watched it.…

George Gershwin’s operatic masterpiece Porgy and Bess proudly stands as the first widely regarded piece of truly “American” opera. Its lyrical melodies and catchy tunes have endured the test of time. Songs taken from the opera remain today a quintessential part of American musical culture, such as the first act’s “Summertime”, which has been recorded or sampled thousands of times by artists of all genres and eras, such as Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, and ska-punk band Sublime. However, though venerated the piece may be, it carries a substantial history of controversy and baggage, stemming from the depiction of African-Americans and the libretto’s racial slurs.…

The main theme is humans can find it emotionally difficult to conform to society, but usually end up doing so. The meaning of this theme is that we all want to do things that are practical to society even if it feels wrong in our hearts.The main driving component which draws people too conformity are the desire to be accepted in certain status groups. People fear that if they do not conform to society, they will be breaking the social contract, therefore be rejected by society at not being able to achieve their personal goals. It is easier to do what is expected than following our minds and rebel. We chose this theme because we can all relate to it and is common in today’s society. Our identities are formed by us as individuals, but also by the world we live in and the other people who inhabit it. The media, our friends and our families all influence us in one way or another. For example, most of us follow the latest things or culture’s trends such as how to dress.This is important in most teens in our society because they don’t want to be judged and talked about in the general public. The media and the opinions of our peers are both things that we consider important. Even though most of us won’t admit it, we all want to belong. We want to be accepted by everybody, so to fulfill this desire we perform things that are against our will.…

Is it the actions we take? The fact that we are a different species? This documentary is about formalizing humanity, with all its flaws and virtues. Getting to know what we can achieve, either great or awful. It tries to display the human diversity, one which we rarely interact with, but should learn to accept and be accustomed living with. It criticizes the perception and internal interactions of human beings. Summarizes what there is of humanity and teaches tragedy in an unimaginable manner. Takes you through a heart touching journey that evokes objectivity and an open mind. After watching the film all prejudices are long gone, because suddenly you realize the vastness of identities and ideologies. Confusion is the first thing you encounter at the end, why are we cruel or despicable with each other. Our future really leans to self-destruction, the extinction of humanity? Only time will tell, hoping it will incline to human transcendence. The documentary should be shared and viewed by everyone. It favors the acceptance of one…
