The opening scene of the 1962 film‚ L’eclisse‚ is quite strange from an editing standpoint. While I can not exactly understand what the actors are saying to do lingual differences‚ I notice the pace and cuts feel unnatural and highly forced.

The opening scenes in Macbeth show a dull and sullen landscape. The atmosphere is gloomy which is seen through the dark clouds‚ the pouring rain‚ and the muddy earth. The castles and the buildings look ominous because of their choppy lines and unpleasant ambience. The costumes in Macbeth look tired and dirty. During the movie‚ the characters

How is the Character of Prospero Conveyed in the Opening Scenes? Prospero is the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play ‘The Tempest’. At first‚ he is a sympathetic character because his usurping brother wronged him making him appear helpless‚ be that as it may‚ his possession and use of magical knowledge renders him extremely powerful.

Gangs of New York is just perfect entertainment. It is an enthralling‚ bloody‚ melodramatic epic that more than justifies its two and one half hour running time. In Gangs director Martin Scorsese spins another tale of the New York underworld but with a twist. Instead of the mid-twentieth century organized crime milieu of Goodfellas‚ Scorsese ventures back to the 19th century to show us the origin of the modern street gang. It’s the early 1860s and the notorious Five Points slum is ruled by the
