The Sapphires film is directed by Wayne Blair and produced in 2012. The Sapphires is a beautifully filmed true story based in 1968 about the story of four indigenous women who go by The Sapphires who got picked to sing to the soldiers in the Vietnam war. The scene that is being analysed is 18.15-2o.23 in this scene Gail is singing a gloomy song for the soldiers because she thinks that Dave is dead. This scene is around the end of the movie just before they go back home. The purpose of this scene is to make us feel sorry for the Sapphires because they just witnessed their manager being killed and that they are singing their sorrows out.
The 2006 British film “The Queen” depicts events that unfolded after the death of Princess Diana in 1997. In the film, the British Royal Family did not react the way the public expected them to. Due to their lack of grief that was publicly shown towards Princess Diana’s death, it resulted in their actions being heavily criticised by British media and the public. Newly elected Prime Minister, Tony Blair, had to step in to help the Royal Family deal with their bad relations to the public, with the help of Diana’s ex-husband, Prince Charles. From the in-depth movie analysis, this essay will be able to show that the media is able to influence the people and their stance towards certain topics by applying these media theories: agenda setting through gatekeeping, dramatization, and two-step flow of communication.

I am not a fan of Westerns. I love old movies especially Melodramas one of my favorite film genres. What female doesn’t enjoy a love story especially one laden with controversy and social stigmas and not to mention, Rock Hudson the very handsome leading man. I found it interesting and loved the setup of the plot. The newly widowed older woman begins dating.
Lion, directed by Garth Davis, is a compelling interpretation of a remarkable true story of Saroo Brierley, lost as a child and reunited with his family 25 years later. Throughout Davis explores the unique circumstances under which Saroo is separated and reconnected with his family and his journey along the way. At some points of the film, I was confronted by how Saroo, a five-year-old boy, expertely navigates, with great instinct and genuine innocence, through an extended, yet life threatening ride. To put it in other words, Lion is a journey that grabs you entirely; whether you want it or not, and you are involved in each and every scene. I instantly fell in love with the connection and relationship between Saroo and his older brother

Throughout The Incredibles, the crime rate in the city does not change as much but rather the ability to prevent crime, as superheroes are thrown in and out of the equation, meaning that the best solution is to adjust the police force to be better for times lacking superheroes. Graph (a) shows the overall change for crime in the movie, and is broken down in Graph (b), which shows the original supply and demand before the superheroes went into hiding, and Graph (c), which expresses the movement along the demand curve as the lack of superheroes affects the city’s ability to prevent crime and increases the cost of doing so. This movement is expressed in Graph (a) as the price floor line, which moves demand to a point of less quantity and supply
Throughout life we are told to express our individuality and swim against the stream of the general population to put emphasis on the characteristics that make us, in short, individuals. Cherishing what makes an individual special and different is what establishes roots in creativity and self expression, however there is a forced false sense of comradery in today’s society that takes the form of involvement with the masses; peer pressure forces many people to fall into the mold of an average character. The Academy award winning film, “The Incredibles” displays the themes of expressing one’s true self and special qualities, and in contrast repression by society to fit a basic mold. These themes are elaborated on through the development of the main characters and expressed further through the supporting roles and their dialogue and endeavors.
I have chosen the movie precious and have viewed this movie two times with the goal that I can compose a make the great notes for composing the reflection about this movie. The movie Precious in light of the novel Push by Sapphire around is about a girl (Claireece Precious Jones) who was brought up in an oppressive family unit with her mother and her mother 's sweetheart, where she manages verbal, physical and sexual abuse from both her mother, and father who lives in an alternate home. Precious has one kid with Down 's Syndrome, however her mother doesn 't let the infant stay in the house with them so she lives with her grandmother and the main time Precious gets the chance to see the infant is the point at which the social worker visits to assess the tyke care. This movie was extremely reasonable. It demonstrated what a few individuals really need to manage in ordinary life.
Although the main intention of the film “The Soloist” was to tell the tragic story of a musically talented and smart man named Nathaniel Ayers, the film also succeeded in bringing forth the controversy that is the amount of people with mental illnesses that go untreated and/ or end up living on the streets. Nathaniel was an undoubtedly talented young man when it came to playing the cello, as he was accepted into Julliard, a prestigious institution for the study and exploration of musical abilities. The underlying complication of the film is that we regularly see people with mental illnesses receiving little to no treatment or support from the community, leaving the responsibility to the individuals and their families. Given the complications

The movie follows a group of journalists working at the Boston Globe, who are known as the spotlight team.
