    Film Analysis: The Great Shake Up

    One contrast that seemed to jump out at me when comparing the movie of Seabiscuit to class lectures and videos, was the portrayal of hoboes during the Great Depression. There is a short clip in the movie showing several hoboes in a box car on a train (Ross, 25). In this scene, there is melancholy music in the background, and the men’s facial expressions seem to be filled with a look of hopelessness. We have also discussed in class lectures the sad predicaments that men left their families in when they felt like they had to desert them in order to join the several other thousands of hoboes. This portrayal heavily contrasts with a video we watched in class titled “The Great Shake Up.” In this video there are several references that seem to glorify…

According to Peter Kramar, author of Hollywood in Germany by the “1940’s 10,000 to 15,000 Germans had migrated to Southern California”. 30,000 intellectuals and radicals were exiled from Europe after the rise of Hitler. 80% of these people were Jewish.

    The Pros And Cons Of Hollywood Dehumanizing Muslims And Arabs

    Does Hollywood dehumanize Muslims and Arabs? Many writers and organizations think so. They assert that racial and ethnic stereotyping that has been otherwise abandoned by the cinema continues to apply to these groups. Columnist Jay Stone, for instance, observes that it "appears we're down to one group, the Arabs. When was the last time you saw an Arab character in a movie who was anything but one of the three Bs (billionaire, bomber, belly dancer)?"1 Hala Maksoud, president of the Arab American Anti-Discrimination Committee, in a complaint to NBC regarding an episode of the television series, The West Wing, asserts that "Arabs remain fair game for the entertainment industry in this…

Several American institution including the Word Trade Center were attacked by hijackers crashing a plan in to the buildings, and killing thousands. The world was shocked and so was Hollywood, there were no terrorist themed movies with Arabs in it for about 4 years. The drastic calamity and destruction of the 9/11 attacks was not digestible and not an event in the past (Elouardaoui 9). After the 9/11 attackes Hollywood remained hesitant to produce a terrorist-themed movie featuring Arabs. The memories and losses of September 11th attacks were still fresh in American minds and anti-Muslim sentiment was at it’s peak (Shaheen “Guilty: Hollywood's Verdict on Arabs after 9/11 16”).

    1930s Movie Theater

    The movie theater industry flourished with the attendance to movie theaters soaring. It was said to be that essentially all the population was attending movie theaters during this decade. The most influential reasoning for this spark of film was the craving for an escape from the people, who needed desperately to get away from their own lives, and experience someone else’s live and feel other emotions besides anguish and sorrow. Although the population’s yearning for an escape pushed the film industry to the top, the government assisted with the Works Progress Administration’s New Deal programs and the film and movie theater companies benefitted the industry by creating unique and intriguing genres and appealing advertisements. Today’s society also reaches to movies to take a break from reality and movie theater companies still continue to advance and innovate advertisements and the theaters themselves to increase the attendance. Even though, the decade of the 1930s was overall filled with misery and discouragement, the film industry was a positive aspect of this time with its new funding by the government it strived with advanced genres and…

    Several factors, including widespread popularity of radio and television, led to this “strong effects” theory of media influence. Also important were the new “persuasion industries” of advertising and propaganda being utilized by industries and governments alike.
