as a tragedy due to the adverse sequence of events that happen to the family. However, Chekov had the intention of portraying this play as a comedy and was outraged when Stanislavski infamously staged it in a tragic nature. Yet, one is not able to state that The Cherry Orchard is definitively comedic or tragic. Chekhov uses a mixture of both genres in order to create an authentic reality that reflects real life. Comedy is clearly evident in this play through the behaviour and reactions of the…

According to Mee and Dowling (2003), films are cultural products which represent places and their people, and therefore bring a perception of the world. Analyzing film seems to be a fascinating way to see how intercultural concepts represented in the world, and among people. My big fat wedding also is a popular Hollywood film which is relevant and valuable to the course of intercultural communication. My big fat Greek wedding is a Canadian-American romantic comedy film directed by Joel Zwick,…

At the beginning of the play, Sheila Birling is shown to be very energetic and enthusiastic about life. The opening stage directions play an important role in presenting the character before she changes dramatically. She is described as "a pretty girl in her early twenties, very pleased with life and rather excited." Priestley has decided to describe her as a ‘girl’ because it represents the immaturity of her character as seen through Act 1. Immaturity is a key theme at the start of the play;…

Samantha Lopez Vrooman Film Studies November 2, 2014 Jules and Jim Film Analysis Trying to comprehend this film was hard because to read the subtitles and trying to look at the scene of where the characters were at felt like the audience had to choose which one was important, the conversation between the characters or scenes of where the characters were at to make the plot. This understanding between the scenes and the words connect with the film of Catherine choosing between two men. This…

Film is one of the most creative form of art that exists, and it is huge in this generation. The ultimate image we see in a movie frame comes from a trail of artistic decisions that had to be made by the director to give meaning to the story. For this paper, the opening scene of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises will be analysed. The paper has the following order: an explanation of what needs to be considered to analyse a movie, a brief explanation of the important elements of…

we don’t love the actor who plays our favourite character, we might not be able to enjoy a film. This paper suggests that the use of well-established Disney characters in the 1983 adaptation of A Christmas Carol, “Mickeys’ Christmas Carol” makes it viable for the novelette to be condensed to a 25 min short film. It further argues that the appropriateness of certain casts is dependent on the shortness of the video. It also establishes that the existence of a backstory for each actor in the movie…

fictional world. But access viewing of films leads or contributes to rapid increase of crime, asocial behaviour, juvenile delinquency. Until world war I, the other nations like European has dominated the German market in the film products. Due to state security, the imperial government banned enemy’s products. So film was proposed as a means to rally domestic support for the effort of war. Cinema at that time was regarded as the most advanced technological form of commercialized culture. After…

commerciality than its own theatrical production. With its Broadway priced tickets, private event offers which include very expensive drinks and gift shop they focus on getting your money than actually doing their theater. It gets to such a point where the actors reappear and attempt to sell souvenir programs! The set design doesn’t look like a hotel and makes little sense to the original text. Furthermore the show has staggered arrival times but ironically they make you wait outside and later…

1. Identify the film’s title, director, AND production designer (or art/visual designer). I watched the film Shawshank redemption. It was directed by Frank Darabont, and the production designer was Terence Marsh. 2. What is the focus of this film? Explain using examples from the film.

I say this because the main character was a…
