Since I am not a fan of viewing blood‚ and the violent actions that causes it; I decided to watch a movie in which the violence is less grotesque. The movie that I chose to watch was "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." I chose this movie because I have recently read that the children’s book series Harry Potter has been rated amongst the most violent books meant for young readers. If you look at "Harry Potter" through a uses and gratifications perspective‚ children would most likely watch

CRITICAL ESSAY ON "CRASH" The film "Crash" written and directed by Paul Haggis was taken place in Los Angeles. This movie illustrates how discrimination and prejudice has affected our everyday lives‚ due to the misconceptions we have of each other. All the characters in this movie are either victims of prejudice and discrimination or are guilty of it. To help us give more understanding about this movie I am comparing the movie Crash to Joseph Healey textbook‚ Race‚ Ethnicity‚ Gender & Class. In

INTRODUCTION The movie I chose to do my movie analysis on was Sin Nombre. I chose this movie because it stood out to me the most‚ mainly because of the title in Spanish. I used four concepts while analyzing this epic movie. First I applied the power elite theory to see who had the power in this power city and how they used their power. Then I used the social conflict theory to see what caused the people to get into the gangs and how the gangs acted to the people. The socialization theory is shown

Throughout the movie Crash the director Patrick Haggis shows a lot of examples of the racial tension that occurs in our society. Haggis depicts different dialectics through separate scenarios of different stereotypical characters that interconnect in contributing to the plot. I am going to illustrate a few key points throughout the course of my paper; reality as motion‚ appearance versus essence‚ and contradiction energizing motion. The first concept I am going to discuss is reality as motion. Reality

According to Tom Cruise‚ watching a movie in theaters is better than watching a movie at home. Tom Cruise‚ however‚ is wrong. Watching movies at home is better than watching movies in theaters. Movies are better at home because there are no previews‚ there is privacy‚ and they cost less. Going to a movie theater is inferior to staying home because of all the previews‚ the people‚ and the expense. When you first walk into a theater and sit down‚ the lights dim and you settle in for the first glimpse
