Analysis of the Trailer of Bride and Prejudice Introduction The purpose of the trailer ‘Bride and Prejudice’ is to advertise the film and to attract and interest the audience. The audience, which the trailer is trying to attract, are teenagers and young adults. I know this because the film has young actors and actresses, and the theme of the film is modern. The film has been inspired by the book ‘Pride and Prejudice’, which was written by Jane Austen. The genre of the film is filled with romance and comedy; the film also is also a musical as it has music and dances being performed by the actors and actresses during the film. The film has many different locations but the main ones are, America and England, which tell the audience that the film is not a typical Asian film, and also Amritsa, which tells the audience that some Asian culture is involved. In the trailer, the voice over is in an American accent. The job of the voice over is to describe what the film is like. He uses word like ‘love’ and ‘magical’, which attract young adults. The words attract the listener and the viewer because of deep American accent and the clips to go with the words, such as when he uses the word Love it shows a clip with Lolita and Darcy in a romantic setting. The music used in the trailer consists of diagetic and non-diagetic sounds. The non-diagetic sounds reinforce what the film is about. At the beginning the music is soft, English and classical, that makes the audiences think the film is soft and romantic, then the music stops and immediately after is followed by Punjabi / bangrah music. This music is loud and exciting and goes well with clips it has been placed with, as all these clips are with dancing and singing. The diagetic sounds on the other hand, are played when the music is playing in the background and the voice are the main sounds, or when the music has paused. The clips shown are funny yet romantic, as the accents of

The Bad and The Beautiful (1952) and State and Main (2000) are films within films that unmask Hollywood Cinema as a dream factory and expose the grotesque, veneer hidden by the luxury of stars. The Bad and the Beautiful, directed by Vincent Minnelli, is a black and white film narrated in flashback form. The films theatrical nature requires more close-ups than wide-screen shots to capture the character’s psychological turmoil. For example, Fred and Jonathan’s car ride is captured in a close-up to signify their friendship; however their relationship deteriorates after Jonathan’s deceit. While the camera zooms out, Fred stands alone motionless. Here, Fred is captured from a distance at eye-level and he becomes ostracized by the film industry and

It takes a creative imagination for a women of the 21st century to realize what their life would have been if they were born 150 years ago. In today’s society, almost any woman could have the career of their dream if they apply themselves. They can choose to marry or not to marry, or choose whether they want children or not; Women have the option to be independent individuals. However, in the 19th century none of those were choices for women. Women weren’t allowed high educations or careers, they had to marry men for social and economic purposes, have children and be housewives. The women of Hamlet and Pride and Prejudice appear to have no exception; both texts show women to be dependent because of their gender, birthright and social class.
The Breakfast Club is a coming-of-age movie. This movie follows five high school students who all have school detention on a Saturday morning. They all come from various types of group. There is the anxious and bizarre girl, Allison; the sporty guy, Andrew; the hard-acting guy, John; the popular girl, Claire; and the nerd, Brian. They all saw each other that way too because they were “brainwashed” into accepting that. Since they are all from different types of groups, they don’t know each other, nor do they want to. At first they think they don’t have anything in common, but as time passes, that proves to be wrong. Since they were the only people in the library, they can’t help but slowly get to know each other. This movie was written and directed by the brilliant John Hughes, who in my opinion is the “King of 80’s movies.” He has directed great 80’s teen movies like 16 Candles, Ferris Beuller’s Day Off, and Pretty in Pink. This movie has mix of genres any individual could possible enjoy: drama, comedy, and even romance. The actors in the movie performed to be tremendous in their roles. The actors in the movie are known as “the brat pack”. The movie is starring: Emilio Estevez, known for popular movies like The Outsiders; Molly Ringwald, who starred in movies like Pretty in Pink and 16 Candles; Anthony Michael Hall, who was in the movie 16 Candles with Molly Ringwald; and Ally Sheedy and Judd Nelson, they both starred in St. Elmo’s Fire. There couldn’t be anyone better to portray the characters in the movie than these actors.
Although the nursing profession has emerged tremendously since the 19th centuries and many great accomplishments and changes has taken placed over the years, however there were presented issues from the film “Sentimental Women Need Not Apply” that were striking to me as they are still very relevant in both the nursing field and in our society.

Late 18th century England, a time when the role of women in society was little and their purpose in life was to marry wealthy men. The trailer for “pride and prejudice” begins by showing the main protagonist “Elizabeth Bennet” who rejected society’s view of women marrying for wealth and security. Elizabeth’s decision gained her criticism from her parents, and soon she falls in love with “Mr. Darcy” (the hero) and “Mr. Darcy” felt the same way. However their pride would falter them from admitting each other’s feelings, hence the story focuses on how both characters overcame their pride through many difficulties. The trailer would attract wide range of female fans, particularly because the main focus of the trailer is on “Elizabeth “who is strong-independent woman who stood strongly on her belief of marrying for love and not money and status. The trailer for “pride and prejudice” depicts conflicting characters, engrossing theme, and extraordinary cinematography to capture the interest of the audience.
In today’s society, pre-existing assumptions and stereotypes of other ethnicities and individuals play a large part in the way we see others. This social construct of stereotypes has placed restrictions on many people’s lives which ultimately limits them from achieving certain goals. In this sense, stereotypes misrepresent and restrict people of colour to gain casting within the Hollywood film industry. The issue of how casting actors to certain roles and how these actors are forced to submit and represent these false stereotypes is one worthy of discussion. White Chicks (2004), directed by Keenan Wayans, illustrates this issue through the performance of Latrell, performed by Terry Crews, and his performance of the hyper-sexualised “buck” will be a prime example in this essay to discuss the racial politics and stereotypes in Hollywood casting.
