Analysis of the Way in Which the Director Has Brought the Film to a Satisfying Conclusion Gurinder Chadha who is the producer, director and writer of the film had one intention. Her intention was to make people believe that anything is possible. Gurinder does this by challenging the audience’s expectations. Right from the beginning of the film, the title is contradicted by calling the film ‘Bend it Like Beckham’ then showing an Asian girl playing football. This does not match the audience’s expectation which is of a boy and certainly no of an Asian girl. She has created a film to show the struggles of a girl who dreams of playing football while battling against her culture and keeping the mood with a hint of Indian humour. The film comes together well with a satisfying ending and a use of different techniques & meanings to fulfil the directors intentions. Different techniques are used from lighting, editing, camera and sound to create a narrative and meaningful ending. These add to the cinematography which helps put the film together. For example when Jess receives her results her mother prays that they are good to their God. Here there is use of high angle shot, to show from the God’s view. This also shows the expression on all of their faces, especially Jess to show how unhappy she is. When she hears that her father wants her to be a doctor or lawyer the screen fades into Jess taking down the picture of David Beckham which represents her dreams and her future that she wants. With soft and slow non diegetic music playing and the lyrics say “dreams are dreams”. All of this put together shows that Jess’s dreams are being lost & her c... ... middle of paper ... ...he situation different. This shows that Jess doesn’t want to stick to traditions but to change so she can fulfil her dream. Again this is another point to add to make the directors intentions. Going back to the director intentions, this was to make a film to show to people that anything is possible. It doesn’t matter who you are but you can make your dreams come true, if you have the determination and no matter what problems you may come across just keep trying. This is what Gurinder wanted the audience to learn from the film. This is how she made film come to a satisfying conclusion. By the cinematography, the way the characters are represented and the perspective of the film and characters. And all of this is what helps put the film together and help get the directors intentions and message across to the audience.
Many civilians are ignorant to the dangers Police Officers face when they put on that badge and uniform; ambushes, high risked calls, and moral dilemmas. Law Enforcement goes beyong issuing citations and making arrests. That is why "End of Watch", a crime drama, is such and outstanding film - it portrayed the reality of Police work so greatly. It showed the brotherhood, or "human" side of Police Officers, and that they endure hardships just as much as the next person, if not more. When the film was first marketed, it was expected to fall within the cheesy cop movie perception, partners after a criminal and eventual catches him in the end, happily ever after. However, its authenticity has shown that sometimes there isnt a "happily ever after".
How would mankind communicate to each other without names? Names are what describe people in terms of personality, traits, and association. That’s why names are immensely important and thus, used in films such as Bound, in order to create a deeper meaning in a character’s actions and personality. The film Bound is written and directed by The Wachowskis. The film is about two lesbians: ex-convict Corky, and lesbian prostitute Violet who is in a relationship with mob money-launderer Caesar but decides to escape from Caesar after meeting Corky for she fell in love with her the moment she sow her in the elevator. So Violet wants to leave Caesar for Corky, but that’s not all. She and Corky come up with a strategy to steal two million dollars from the mob and blame it on Caesar. "Your name defines you," says Gregg Steiner, a Los Angeles talent manager (Parenting). In the film Bound, characters’ names have a lot of significance in which some have more connotations than others. Each character’s name holds symbolic meaning to the character’s role in the film and this is very apparent among Corky, Violet, and Caesar as well as the supporting casts: Gino and Johnny Marzzone.
The racial system is composed of three basic parts that divides people into different categories: the white on top, black on bottom, and brown in between. This system came to be as a result of three different population coming together with unequal terms resulting in one population having the most power. The film Do the Right Thing, directed by Spike Lee, does an excellent job at portraying how the racial system functions by showing the advantages of being at the top of the system and the disadvantages of being at the bottom of the system. Not only does Spike Lee show the way that the racial system works but it also shows the reality of it and how it puts the races at the bottom
In the documentary “Fed Up,” sugar is responsible for Americas rising obesity rate, which is happening even with the great stress that is set on exercise and portion control for those who are overweight. Fed Up is a film directed by Stephanie Soechtig, with Executive Producers Katie Couric and Laurie David. The filmmaker’s intent is mainly to inform people of the dangers of too much sugar, but it also talks about the fat’s in our diets and the food corporation shadiness. The filmmaker wants to educate the country on the effects of a poor diet and to open eyes to the obesity catastrophe in the United States. The main debate used is that sugar is the direct matter of obesity. Overall, I don’t believe the filmmaker’s debate was successful.
Modern day directors use a variety of methods to hold ones interest. Ethan Hawke and Kenneth Branagh’s created versions of Hamlet that shared some similarities, but ultimately had many differences in respects to an audience’s appeal. An appealing movie is one that has an alluring ambiance and an intellectual stimulus. With these two movie versions, a setting and a mood forced an audience to acquire specific emotions, but Ethan Hawke’s version generated emotions more strongly and effectively. Also, these movies had extremely different uses of music and visuals, but both movie versions incorporated them well for the ambiance it tried to obtain. Finally, both movie versions drew characters to captivate the audience; however in Ethan Hawke’s version, the characters were used so effectively that it was easy to feel involved with them. While both these versions of Hamlet had a captivating ambiance, Ethan Hawke’s version was more appealing due to the intellectual incentive that it offered.

...r, this movie is lack of depth of storyline. The audiences can even predict what will happen in the next scenes. Moreover, the ending of this movie is too cheesy and irrational according to me. If only they change the ending to become more interesting and rational, I will give a four or five stars out of five. In spite of a lame twist ending, this movie is a perfect example to show that managers should be able to motivate and challenge their employee. It is important to remember that a happy employee means a productive employee.

“Entertainment has to come hand in hand with a little bit of medicine, some people go to the movies to be reminded that everything’s okay. I don’t make those kinds of movies. That, to me, is a lie. Everything’s not okay.” - David Fincher. David Fincher is the director that I am choosing to homage for a number of reasons. I personally find his movies to be some of the deepest, most well made, and beautiful films in recent memory. However it is Fincher’s take on story telling and filmmaking in general that causes me to admire his films so much. This quote exemplifies that, and is something that I whole-heartedly agree with. I am and have always been extremely opinionated and open about my views on the world and I believe that artists have a responsibility to do what they can with their art to help improve the culture that they are helping to create. In this paper I will try to outline exactly how Fincher creates the masterpieces that he does and what I can take from that and apply to my films.
Everyone enjoys a superb movie here and there, and every person, including me, has their opinions about the ending. Some made me endlessly cheerful. Some mad me cry. Others had me fuming with anger. The fact exist that after a viewer is done watching various movies within these three different categories, they’ll have different emotions towards the finale. But when talking about a movie with a strong ending I generally have the same opinion as everyone else.
