As it has been highlighted in the course of this analysis, then, similarly to Frozen, most of Sausage Party’s success lies in its universality, even though such universality is played in the opposite way of Frozen: this time, the single characters are granted a greater emotional and psychological depth, while it is their physical aspect that is unrelatable since they are not humans but grocery items. Actual empirical evidence on the effects of viewership identification is still lacking, but a study on the cognitive effects of immersion in cinematic viewing carried by Dutch professors Valentijn T. Vish, Ed S. Tan, and Dylan Molenaar has demonstrated that there is, in fact, an observable relationship between film immersion and emotional intensity perceived by the audience. At the same time, professors Scott H. Hemenover and Ulrich Schimmack of the university of Western Illinois and Toronto have examined empirical evidence for feelings of amusement and disgust as perceived by an audience of a film …show more content…
The object of a pornographic or adult film, in fact, is ultimately that of pleasure, and even if Sausage Party is not an actual pornographic text, it would be reductive not to take into account the importance of its narrative of sex and pleasure. Even Baudrillard refers to porno as a fascination “more on a metaphysical than on a sexual level” (Baudrillard 400), therefore the sexual elements of Sausage Party, featuring pieces of food that engage in sexual activities with other pieces of food, are enjoyable because and especially for the fact that they do not revolve around sexual intercourses among actual human beings, thus allowing for the discourse of sex to shift entirely on the conceptual
Anne McClintock wrote her essay “Gonad the Barbarian and the Venus Flytrap: Portraying the female and male orgasm” to examine pornography and how it has changed throughout history and its effects on how women perform as sexual beings. McClintock focuses on the various roles of pornography such as its emphasis on voyeurism, pleasure, and the male ego. She wants her readers to know that women are still not represented in pornography to satisfy their own desires, but they are there to cater to men and their subconscious. I will analyze how McClintock argues that due to the history of sexism towards women, the roles that men and women have in pornography are inherently different because of the societal belief that women are only seen as objects of sexual desire and are solely there to satisfy the male audience.
The show Band of Brothers was produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks who, at the time, recently had success with a World War II film entitled Saving Private Ryan. Spielberg and Hanks used their expertise on war films to craft the exceptional television series Band of Brothers which originally aired on HBO in 2001. The show follows “Easy” Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, of the 101st Airborne Division, from the moment they begin their training to the moment their deployment ends. Throughout the show we see the men of “Easy” Company mature a thousand times over. The men experience love, loss, and death at rate that is inconceivable to someone that has never experienced the theatre of war.
Mrs. Schumacher Film Appreciation Final Paper Footloose When watching both Footloose movies the 1984 and the 2011 version, there are quite a few noticeable differences. I would like to start out by saying that the biggest one is the character choice. In my opinion Kevin Bacon didn't play a very good Ren McCormick. I believe that Kenny Wormald plays a better Ren. In my opinion the more modern version of the movie is a lot more up beat.

Inside and beyond the myth and the social impact of the subject as One or Substance. Alan H. Goldman’s essay ‘Plain Sex’ is a central contribution to the academic debate about sex within the analytic area, which has been developing since the second half of the ‘90s in Western countries. Goldman’s purpose is encouraging debate on the concept of sex without moral, social and cultural implications or superstitious superstructures. He attempts to define “sexual desire” and “sexual activity” in its simplest terms, by discovering the common factor of all sexual events, i.e. “the desire for physical contact with another person’s body and for the pleasure which such contact produces; sexual activity is activity which tends to fulfill such desire of the agent” (Goldman, A., 1977, p 40).
Over the past century, film has served as a powerful means of communication to a global audience and has become a vital part of the contemporary culture in a world that is increasingly saturated by visual content. Due to the immediacy and the all-encompassing nature of film, the process of watching a film, is widely perceived to be a passive activity by the general masses. However, quoting Smith in his article about the study of film, “nothing could be further from the truth.” The study and understanding of film as an art form enhances the way we watch and appreciate films. It requires the audience's active participation and interaction with the film in order to fully comprehend the directors' intention behind every creative decision.

An awful movie I’ve got seen Gone Girl is an awful movie I’ve got seen since its plot is illogical and the characterization of some roles is inconsistent. The movie narrates a unordinary “loving story”, the plot of which is unordinary, suspense and thrilling, while the theme of this movie has nothing to do with it. At the end of the film, Amy came back, standing in the bathroom with her whole body covered with blood, spit out the so-called truth of marriage imperturbably and even remorselessly.
