Film Analysis: What The Bleep Do We Know
"What the Bleep Do We Know", is a fascinating documentary film that utilizes fictional story lines, computer animation and discussions by several scientists and philosophers to present a viewpoint of the physical universe and human life within it, with connections to neuroscience and quantum physics. The general idea was that since quantum mechanics supposedly says that there isn't one reality, but an infinite number of possibilities, one just has to be enlightened to an awareness of this, and then you can make whatever you want, happen. Within the plot, the main character of the movie (played by Marlee Matlin) essentially was educated of amazing facts about quantum physics, in which helps her deal with her anxiety attacks, bad body image and …show more content…
Of course, it may not have been very simple to take in the varieties of theories pertaining to quantum mechanics/physics all at once; however, I did strongly agree on the theory that beliefs about who one is and what is real form oneself and one's realities. This is something I had thought about for a copious amount of years, but I do believe that if one strongly desires someone or something mentally, and is all concentrated to that particular value, it will become reality. Astoundingly, within my experience, many of the things I strongly desired and concentrated on had come into my possession, whether it was an expensive cell phone, or simply obtaining a high score on the SAT. I believe that my strong desire gave me a motivational push to work hard in raising enough money to buy a cell phone or to enable me to study harder in obtaining a good grade In addition, it is certainly not merely pertaining to something we strongly want to acquire, but also our "luck" or "fortune". I personally take strong belief in that the positive ness or the negative ness within a human mind will affect the outcome as to their luck or fortune. For example, if one reads a horoscope saying that their particular sign was not going to have a good day at work, then that person will have a constant negative thought as to what could happen and will have the mentality that something negative WILL happen; thus, producing one's negative thought/state of mind into

    This essay will take an in-depth look at the history of Hollywood during the late 60s and early 70s. This period of time is considered to have been a renaissance for American cinema, and was titled the ‘New Hollywood’ by cotemporary critics of the time. In order to understand the changes that Hollywood went through the late ‘60s, you first have to examine the preceding era of Hollywood filmmaking during the 30s and 40s. This was a period that is commonly referred to as Hollywood’s Golden Age; when the dream factories were in full swing and the audiences were in regular attendance. This period of time could be defined by a number of social, political or economic contexts, but it’s the filmmaking practices that were employed at the time which…

    Quantum physics is the study of all physics that is smaller than an atom. It has been notorious for being one of the most confessing concepts of our universe. One quantum physicist, Richard Feynman even went as far as saying, “I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics. To better understand Quantum physics it is best if one thinks of it as having a separate universe from ours with that universe having a different differ laws of physics. The laws of physics that we see in the world around us behave, as you believe them to. Objects can be in only one place at a time, things in motion stay in motion, and On this quantum scale matter acts differently as it would if it was on a normal human scale. Particles could be invisible, go threw solid objects with ease and even be in multiple places at the same time. This might sound insane these principles of Quantum Mechanics are apply to many different forms of technology in our world. For example, there are high-tech computers now called “Quantum Computers” which store millions of times more bits of information and could process information almost instantly. Hands down the most incredible thing concerning quantum mechanics that it proved to us that consciences physically…

    In the movie “Bernie”, we follow the story and between a Carthage, Texas funeral director Bernie Tiede, and his co-dependent relationship with a wealthy widow, Marjorie Nugent. As “Bernie” unfolds, we see the companionship turn for the worse as Ms. Nugent’s ill-temper causes Bernie to snap – and lands her dead in her freezer. This movie brings up some questions, specifically regarding image. After analysis, the question I keep coming back to is “Was Bernie genuine and sincere? Or was it all a façade?” Although Bernie committed a horrible crime, I believe the answer to this question is “yes”- Bernie was a genuine man.…

    Self-fulfilling prophecies. What does that mean? Where could you find it? More often then not, one's life can be largely based on self-fuflilling prophecies. "A self-fulfilling prophecy occurs when a person's expectations of an event, and her or his subsequent behavior based on those expectations, make the outcome more likely to occur than would otherwise have been true." In other words, it means that if you believe that you are able to do something, then you are likely to succeed, whereas if you believe that you cannot do something, then you are more likely to fail. One self-fulfilling prophecy is when I was fifteen years old. I had always wanted to play guitar and had finally received one that year. I didn't have…

    Movies are all about taking you on an adventure. They expand our minds, they bring our imagination to life, and manipulate our emotions. Directors do this in many ways, whether they are peculiar camera angles and shots, extreme lighting, or music that intensifies a scene. If a director correctly implements these within their movie, the audience’s emotions can very easily be manipulated.…
