    Pleasantville

    In a world open to new ideas change is inevitable; this is illustrated in the film Pleasantville by Gary Ross. Ross’ intention in the scene where Bud is questioned at the soda shop is to show us that change is bound to happen. We begin to see this when the soft, jazz music enters this scene; which is used to enhance the curiosity feel that is shown within the eyes of all the teenagers who are watching Bud enter the store, this is reflected by the technique of quick shot sequence, panning and tilting around the shop; these camera shots really emphasises the beginning of thirst for knowledge tacking place in Pleasantville. Though, they crave for more information, they will never be satisfied; “what’s outside of Pleasantville?” they ask, Gary Ross asks this to show that Bud is now held with a great responsibility and that ‘Freedom does come with a price’, when he tells them don’t worry it brings a different reaction and this all part of human nature, when they ask again everything stops and the drum rolls enter the scene to show that an important message is to be told, this is when Bud explains the outside world; he is now beginning to like the attention and is no longer concerned that he is changing their whole universe. Bud has now transformed their minds and has opened it to new worlds; Ross shows this new transformation through the library scene, Jazz music comes in again and this time it starts to pick up the pace, which confirms that the teen’s world has become livelier and the new found knowledge from books lets their ideas and imaginations run free; The camera shot is panning, showing us that many people in Pleasantville are up for change. Although, those people want change, others are content within the world they know; this scene displays this statement by using juxtaposition between colourful crowds at the library, to the gray-scaled shots of the men at the barber shop. The teens at the library are reading and learning while the men are sitting idle…

    Pleasantville

    “We accept the verdict of the past until the need for change cries out loudly enough to force upon us a choice between the comforts of inertia and the irksomeness of action,” - Learned Hand. During the 50s Hand was seen a defender of civil rights when subversion, the downfall or corruption of something, was on the verge of dividing the nation, also known as the Red Scare. So, this quote is relevant to the film, Pleasantville, directed and written by Gary Ross because not only was it from the same time period as the film, but it describes the choices that the public has when change presents itself. In Pleasantville, Gary Ross is trying to convey the theme that a figure of authority or a government cannot suppress or prevent changes in a society when it begins to take root.…

    The story of The Myers and the Wechsler families is a social commentary of America at the time. A time of differing views on collision courses toward one another. The tale of Levittown is one of the American spirit in its most heroic forms and its most villainous depths. It is overall a story of personal struggle of the civil rights movement rather than a history of events which happened with facts and statistics, this book entails the personal struggles and allows an individual to understand the struggle at a personal level.…

    Staggerford

    Relatable. This is a word that I would personally use to describe “Staggerford”, by Jon Hassler. Hassler did a splendid job writing this novel, focusing on how the life of a middle aged high school English teach in Minnesota may be. Although this book is fiction, the perfect picture was painted in my head of Miles, the middle aged bachelor’s realistic life. Throughout this novel, I started to see many different hints of what may be to come further in the reading, disguised properly, although. There are many important characters that play special roles throughout this novel, and Miles Pruitt is the main focus of it all. Love, heartbreak and demise are the recurring themes scattered throughout this brilliant novel.…

    Good morning/Afternoon class and teacher. Today I’m going to be speaking about how Garry Ross the director of Pleasantville, and Simple Plan’s Untitled, develop and convey meaning through the use of visual techniques. Gary Ross develops his ideas of change by using various visual techniques to emphasize an awakening throughout the characters of Pleasantville. He addresses that change is something you have to accept in life, even if you’re not use to it. Gary Ross also contrasts the ignorance and mindlessness of the people who live in Pleasantville with the hunger for knowledge and communicating to the viewer that change and knowledge go hand in hand.…

    Pleasantville

    The decade following the Second World War brought about a new sensation of the ‘perfect housewife' and her duties at home. Men being drafted and shipped oversees during World War II had taken a lot of women out of the kitchen and put them into the workplace. This was the biggest movement thus yet of women changing roles in society and moving away from domestication. This movement was thwarted by returning soldiers, their moving back to the workplace, and the repositioning of women in the home. The baby boom followed the Second World War, furthering the encouragement of women to stay home and be the ideal mother and wife. Television greatly reflected this attitude. Sitcoms about the ideal family emerged left and right. Shows like ‘Leave it to Beaver', ‘Ozzie and Harriet', and ‘Father Knows Best' portrayed the happy and satisfying life a woman could lead by fulfilling her duties. Gary Ross's 1998 feature film Pleasantville examined the differences between the 90s and the 50s image of family by transporting 90s characters into the ideal black and white image of the ideal 1950s family of a mother, father, son and daughter. Not only did this movie explore ideas in feminism, but racism as well. When a character of the original Pleasantville was exposed to something new, they turned from black and white to an image of color. This separation between those in color and those not, there began a racism much like the segregation there used to be between African Americans and white Americans.…

    Jonestown

    A past religious settlement established by Reverend Jim Jones in late 1978 provides examples of persuasive tricks known as fallacies. The majority of the followers in the masses were individuals who were victims of discrimination seeking a better and more positive outlook on life, signifying Jones' selection of people. Fallacies are formed within arguments causing it to weaken by indicating a flaw in reasoning. Jim Jones utilized unique and persuasive tactics, which brought him about a thousand followers, all desperate and in need of a leader who provided them with what they believed as faith healing. However, these people carried traits of emotional vulnerability, causing them to overlook the errors within their leader's bold statements and arguments. Jones created the Peoples Temple known as Jonestown that began with immense hope and aspiration for the people, but ended in tragedy. The foundation of the tragic event was built upon Jones and his multiple arguments, which pertained common fallacies. The fallacies created by Jones consisted of appeals to popularity, ignorance, authority, tradition, incomplete comparisons, and false dichotomies. The mixture of various strategies were enforced upon these weak individuals; though unfortunate, a leader with psychiatric issues achieves success through his uses of persuasion and leads nearly a thousand people to self-destruction.…

    Our Town

    In the play "Our Town", by Thornton Wilder, a character by the name of Simon Stimson makes a very insightful statement about people and their lives. Simon is dead and buried, as well as several of the play's other characters, when a newly-dead young woman named Emily joins their ranks and begins to realize the triviality and ignorance of her existence, as well as that of every living person. The dead are discussing this insignificance and unawareness of the living when Simon comments with disgust on how much living persons waste their life, asserting, "To spend and waste time as though you had a million years." In this statement, Simon is referring to the degree of which people take their lives for granted. People are often so busy and so consumed by relatively minor matters that they never stopped to realize how truly special everything is. They go about their days following strict schedules and routines, always rushing about to meet their many obligations, and never take the time to simply cherish even the small things. Most people wake-up in the morning, rush about to leave for school or their jobs, work or learn all day, only to come home and have yet more obligations to take care of, never once taking time out to stop and enjoy things for themselves. Simon is referring to the daily routines and events the consume people's lives as a waste of time, for they do not realize how genuinely short their lives are. Simon is upset with people for never taking time to admire the beauty that surrounds their lives, never cherishing the time they have with others, and even being ignorant of life's small pleasures, such as fresh clothes and hot baths. People live their lives working towards something they think will always be attainable, setting their eyes on the future, living for the future, rushing for the future, and ignoring the present. With "Our Town", Thornton Wilder is attempting to show us these faults and trying to persuade us to live in and for the…

    Our Town

    Wilder's passionate plea in the play is to appreciate every moment of every day, for life is a fleeting thing. With troubles rapidly expanding in Europe and war becoming a looming reality, people were inundated with the negative aspects of life. To see Our Town was to escape from the negative and rejoice in the ordinary; it reaffirmed faith in the unchanging moral values of small town living. It was obviously the balm that audiences needed in the midst of a pessimistic and changing world. Through his play, Wilder tries to teach the audience to seize the moment and enjoy living. There are no guarantees about a certain life span, as evidenced by the premature deaths of Emily Webb and her brother, Wally; tomorrow may be too late. By calling the drama Our Town and portraying ordinary people and events, the people in the audience and the readers of the play can identify with the theme and apply it to their own lives. Our Town is an unusual play in structure. It intentionally contains little action, in order to support the theme; nothing exciting or…
