Hitchcock examined the ailment in a physical, mental, and almost supernatural form.

As well done as the movie is, when watching the film you can not help but feel the irony involved that Brad Pitt delivers the most biting lines in the film. Brad Pitt plays Tyler Durden whos...

  • Blue Eyed People Versus Brown Eyed People

    "A Class Divided" is a film that everyone should view no matter what race or ethnicity a person might be. Whether we realize it or not, everyone is prone to some form of discrimination or prejudice. Most Americans are not part of the dominant group, therefore due to being a minority, we undergo a feeling of inferiority. This film presents us with a different view on the color of someone's skin. After viewing this, a person will hopefully be less likely to focus on the differences they have with ...

    One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest This film unlike most others on the same topic had no real event to focus on. There was not just one climax or specific scene that the others built up to or supported. I cannot say that I enjoyed it but I do feel it has to a great extent affected me. The only reason I feel that this film is one worth watching is because of the latent message it holds. It very successfully exposes authority and bureaucracy in society. The characters in this film portray people that...

    Movie Review: Yentl Everyone at one time or another has felt out of place. Feeling unsure of one's place in society is an experience that every young adult faces but deals with differently. Some rebel while others comply with whatever has been set out for them by society or their parents, or both. The role of the woman in society is forever changing. Where women were once obligated to stay in the home and dote on their husbands, they are now working in the same types of jobs as their husbands. W...

  • Film Evokes Sympathy For The Algerians
    914 words
    I thought it would be relatively easy to write about the film's efforts to make the audience sympathetic for the Algerian people. To aid my efforts, I opted to go online to learn a little more about Algiers' attempts to free themselves from France. As I was browsing around, I found several references to the film, which not only aided my argument, but also strongly opposed the singular feeling of compassion towards the Algerians. The article also suggested that the film presents cause for sympath...

  • Woody Allens Movies His Own Unique Way
    1,505 words
    The argument that I'm going to make is that Woody Allen is an "auteur", by standard definition a "auteur" is a film director whose practice accords with the auteur theory. For clarification the "auteur theory " The dictionary definition of auteur states that the director of a film dominates the film-making process's o much that it is appropriate to call the director the auteur, or author, of the motion picture. The theory also states that the director projects his or her own personal style onto ...

    What do you get when you combine a warped mind of a Manhattan stockbroker and a suave, classy well-built exterior? You get an American psycho and the title of a brilliant yet not so easily accepted book by Bret Easton Ellis. Canadian director Mary Harron, known for her work with the cult movie "I Shot Andy Warhol', really took on a handful when she decided to put Ellis's work to the big screen. Though the film is not readily received by those with a not-so-open mind, it is indeed properly apprec...
