Throughout the novel, “With a Sword in my Hand” (WASIMH), there was an ongoing theme of Marguerite struggling to fulfil the roles expected of her as the future Countess of Flanders. The author, Jean-Claude van Rijckegham highlights the struggle of how Marguerite acts, looks and the ever-continuing conflict between her and her father. In the Medieval Flemish era, it was critical for women higher in the hierarchy to look beautiful and elegant. For Marguerite to develop as a woman, she had to pluck her hairline and her eyebrows because that was considered as real beauty.
Her character annoyed lots of people in Germany since her behavior was viewed as immoral. However, Lulu made Louise Brooks famous and inspired the female characters of film noir. The film is a brilliant portrait of Weimar era and the Jazz age, where there is no place for “free” women and what awaits for those who would like to stand alone and strong is tragedy. http://www.sagactor.org/2014_10_01_archive.html http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0018737/
The collapse of France during World War II was as abrupt as it was unforeseen. A major work of art that reflected the provocative history of France during the German occupation and the lives of the captives was that of Irene Nemirovsky’s Suite Française, a book she wrote in 1941. The French women that were portrayed in the novel come from different backgrounds and played different roles. The roles that these women depicted in the book were roles that women in reality played; roles that they didn’t necessarily choose, but rather was forced upon them by the French society and the circumstances that the war has brought upon them. Irene Nemirovsky was born in Kiev in 1903 to a wealthy family, and like most prominent Russian-Jewish families, hers had made the transition to French life impeccably (Kaplan 4).
She is not comfortable in the human culture if she resorts to her natural tendencies. While she is preparing to dance, she, “rubbed a pumpkin muffin all over [her] body earlier that morning,” (Russell 242) to mask her scent. This action not only creates humor but also shows that Claudette is not ready to go back and forth from human culture and wolf culture. Normal humans would use perfume to mask a smell, Claudette chose to use a pumpkin muffin because she knew it would mask her odor. This is not a human action, therefore, she does not meet the expectation of Stage
Likewise, de Maupassant’s “The Jewels” introduces us to Madame Lantin, who was married off to Monsieur Lantin to improve her life. Her seemingly virtuous and innocent appearance became the main
The fantasy is about Buttercup, a milkmaid, and Westley, a farm boy, who fall in love and have to face many obstacles. The story mainly develops the themes of true love and revenge. However, in the book, The Princess Bride by William Goldman, the story develops the theme of revenge and true love in more depth compared to the movie. First of all, the book provides a detailed past of each main character which makes the reader sympathize with them. For example, in the book, the author has dedicated four to five pages to understand Inigo’s and Fezzik’s past.
Directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse, The Dressmaker, starring Kate Winslet, is an iconic Australian film that portrays the story of a famous clothing designer named Tilly who after 20 odd years returns to her hometown to care for her ailing and mentally unstable mother, Molly. Set in a small town named Dungatar in rural Australia in the 1950’s, The Dressmaker is a story that revolves around the theme of revenge as Tilly explores her tormented past and retaliates against the townspeople who had made her childhood a living hell. The Dressmaker delivers a sort of contemporary twist on the classic Spaghetti Western films that dominated the film industry during the mid-1960s. The western style theme of revenge incorporated into The Dressmaker, combined with multiple other elements adopted from Spaghetti Western films, transforms and enhances the movie into a visually stunning piece
In Kiss and Tell, Alain de Botton humorously describes a situation between tactless and socially oblivious parents and their uncomfortable adult daughter, Isabel, who is on a date with her new boyfriend. Using immaturity and a lack of etiquette in the actions of the characters, multiple examples of irony, and the anticipation of Isabel’s father’s actions which all ultimately lead to a comedic effect, de Botton produces a universal experience that brings humor to the audience while commenting on family dynamics. To depict the immaturity and lack of etiquette in the actions of the characters, de Botton uses juxtaposition in the setting, onomatopoeia, and other literary devices. De Botton intentionally sets his story in a theater with an “elegantly
The costumes were quite normal street clothes for that time-period except for Blanche 's extravagant wardrobe. For this time-period, the makeup and hair was quite common. Since Blanche was dressed to impress and find a husband she wore a full face of makeup. Since was not yet born in 1947, I am unsure what the sound and lighting designs were like.
That is one way the theme can be related to the text, but another interpretation is how Blanche appears to be sane. In reality, she has trauma related mental problems that become apparent throughout the text. The author tries to portray the character’s lives different then what is actually going on in their private lives. Symbolism is used in the play by Blanche’s “fancy and expensive” items. These possessions from Blanche’s perspective look new and expensive, but they actually are worn out and cheap from the outsider’s view.
This essay will examine the historical accuracy of the film Les Miserables in terms of the social, economic and political conditions in French society post French Revolution. The film Les Miserables depicts an extremely interesting time in French history (from about 1815-1832.) Even though the story line does not depict every detail and event that occurred during the time period as well as the fact that some aspects are dramatized for entertainment purposes, the film effectively spans thirty years of economic, political and social aspects of French Society. However it also manages to bring in references to the past, the French Revolution (1789-1799) and the impact it had on the society portrayed in the film.
The natural attraction between the young couple seems too good to be true at first. Full of love and joy, the two live a happy life only for a moment of their lives. Had it not been for differences in us human beings, the two would have been a match made in heaven. While most of the blame can be put onto Armand, we must take note that the unjust hierarchy set in time weighs down upon her husband, almost forcing him to make such a rash and irresponsibly decision. A love story set and ripped down by fate ending in three if not many more broken hearts.
The developing characters synchronize for a moment, but then they switch over from where the other came. The action ascends gradually, but the plot development is in the mise en cine and dialogue where Patricia swipes her thumb over Michele’s dead body. The tone and feel are exaggerated throughout the film by the instability created by Godard’s use of a handheld camera. The title, Breathless, could imply a surprise or a romantic surge, but A Bout de Souffle, has the denotation of the Last or Final Breath, which offers a significant difference as a description of the film. Godard declared that, “A Bout de Souffle is a story, not a theme.”
Originating in France, ‘The Necklace’ is a short story written by French writer Guy de Maupassant in the late nineteenth century, the period where literary movements realism and naturalism dominated French fiction. Maupassant played an important role in both the realist movement and the naturalist movement through his depiction of the setting as well as the character’s decision. The short story reflects upon the rigid patriarchal society during the late nineteenth century, demonstrating how the wealth of a person can lead to their generosity and greed; thus affecting their lifestyles. Through ‘The Necklace’, Maupassant aims to depict the conflicts between the upper-class and the lower class, how their inner desires vary. This essay will analyze ‘The Necklace’ and how Maupassant uses the social context, characters and literary devices in the short story to illustrate his misogynistic viewpoints towards women.
