Laura Mulvey’s theory of the “male gaze” argues that the various “looks” that you would find in works of cinema, tend to reinforce sexist stereotypes from the male perspective. These “looks”, include the gaze of the camera and how the characters are displayed on screen. Men are usually seen as the “lookers” or “gazers” while […]

Excellent examples in regards to how the film used sound and mirrors for emphasis. I also didnt agree with the miscarriage, i think it was two much.

Way to empasize the effect of scaring the audience that this movie posseses and then comparing it to other horror film effects.

Honestly this was the first time I had ever seen Psycho, or any films by Hitchcock for that matter. The only thing I knew about the film was the classic shower scene that has been reference in so many other shows. Despite that, I’m glad I was able to watch and write about it. This […]

This film was a blast from the past for me personally. My dad is a Star Trek fan so I’ve seen my far share of Sci-Fi films. It was a good film to watch because Halloween was right around the corner and it was something we could watch while letting our hair down after that […]

excellent scene breakdown. I remember that scene and it made me realize that almost all the scenes we see Kane and his second wife in, shes on the floor while hes sitting or standing over her. A perfect example of their relationship.

I gotta agree with Daniel, great way to compare two great films together. Comparing Kane and Skywalker was something i never even considered but looking back, it does make sense.

For the blog challenge, I’m going to choose the scene that I discussed in class. For those of you who don’t remember, that’s the scene were Kane is alone with his second wife after one of her performances. We see Kane receive a letter from his associate that contains a torn up check that he […]

I must say that The Lady Eve was one of my favorite screening so far. Since our first two were about murder and mobsters, watching a romantic comedy was a good change of pace. I must admit, after all, that romantic comedies are my favorite genre of movies. The movie introduces two main characters, Jean […]

Our first film, M, I had mixed feeling about in the beginning. I hadn’t watched a movie in a different language since I watched The Orphanage at my friend’s house, so the adjustment was a little different from what I, as well as others, I’m sure, are use to. With that being said, the movie itself […]

I feel I must be honest, Andre Bazins adaptation was very confusing and it was the longest six pages I ever had to read. With that out of my system, I can now get to the root of what I think Bazin was trying to make his readers understand and if you disagree with my […]
