I was glad to see this movie at the end of this chapter because I am a big Eminem (Marshal Mathers) fan and I really enjoy watching this movie. I like the storyline of it and if you are an Eminem fan than I think it kind of gives you a feeling of where he is from. I also think it shows the tough skin you have to have to grow up on the other side of 8 mile. The director was Curtis Hanson who also directed "LA Confidential", "Wonder Boys" and "In Her Shoes." I have not seen any of the other movies that he has directed but I really enjoyed this movie.
Some of the key actors in this film were Eminem (Rabbit), Mekhi Phifer (Future), Brittany Murphy (Alex), Evan Jones (Cheddar Bob), and Kim Basinger ( Rabbit's Mom). I was really impressed with Eminem's acting I wasn't sure on how he would be as an actor but he did a really good job. The supporting cast was awesome as well and I think the director did a great job at picking the cast for this movie.
There were a few memorable moments in this movie and one that pops out right away is when Rabbit is on the stage in the shelter right at the beginning of the movie and he chokes and get boo'd off stage. Another moment in the movie that I remember is when Rabbit catches his supposed to be friend "Wink" having relations with Alex in the studio. This leads to Rabbit beating him up and then the gang Free World jumping him in the trailor court. The last real memorable moment in the movie is when at the end of the movie Rabbit wins the rap battle and mocks the Free World.
Themes for this movie would have to be perserverence over failure. Another theme is that no matter what you can achieve anything you want if you work hard enough for it and you don't give up on yourself.
I think that this was a really good movie and was directed well. This movie was made to show a little light on Eminem's up bringing and the things that he had to go through before he got famous. It's not said that this is a biography but Eminem had an interview and wanted people to know his past and what he had to go through to get to where he is now. I think this movie gives a lot of hope to those kids that are in the lower stage of poverty and want to prove people wrong that they can if they put ther heart into it.
My overall evaluation of this movie is that it was a great story and was really well written. I enjoyed everything about it and that it gets you down and you feel bad for Rabbit because of all the crap that he has to endure but it never stops and him and he fights and claws tell he is successful. I think it showed a great deal of what it is like to live in Detroit in the so called slums of poverty. It also I think showed the pride that Eminem has for Detroit and being from there and how it helped mold him into the guy that he is now.
There were some symbols in this movie for sure and one of them I thought was when Eminem had to take the bus to work and was looking out the window at all the broken down houses and building that were just left there to rot away. Lilly was a symbol to me and she represented Eminem's daughter in real life Haley. In the movie Eminem shows how much he cares about Lilly and cares about her well being. Critics at the time of this movie when it came out said that Eminem shouldn't have a kid that he was a bad parent. I think he wanted to show everyone that he really loves his daughter and cares for her very much no matter what his lifestyle is like.

Slumdog Millionaire (2008)
Slumdog Millionaire was a great movie and always kept my attention. Just the characters drive through out the whole movie was amazing and all the different actors they used for each stage of their lives from a child to a young adult was well done. The director of this movie was Danny Boyle; Loveleen Tandon who also directed 127 Hours, 28 Days Later, two movies that I like very much and actually own all three of the movies.
The key actors were Dev Patel (Older Jamal), Freida Pinto (Older Latika) , Anil Kapoor (Prem), Irrfan Khan (Police inspector). To me these were the most important character through out the whole movie and also were the best played through out the movie. All of these actors did a great job in playing their roles in the movie.
Some of the most memorable moments would have to be when Jamal jumps into the poo just so he can meet his favorite actor and get his autograph. One other moment would have to be when his mom dies right in front of his brother. After that they end up having to make it on their own and from this they mold into the people they are later in the movie.
Definately one of the themes in this movie has to be love and that is through the whole movie that love is shown. Another theme is poverty and coming from nothing but not letting anything get you done and stop you from getting what you want in life. Also just the drive to be free in the movie by the actors is apparent that they want to get away from the poverty that they are living in.
This movie was so sweet, I really enjoyed the love story in it and how it shows that no matter what Jamal was going through he always put Latika first. He loved her so much and was willing to do anything for her to make her happy. There was a sign around every corner telling Jamal that he should just let her go and move on with his life but he wouldn't let that slow him down. He always fights for what he wants in the movie. Jamal has a really good heart and nothing ever seems to break his spirit and like that the director did that. I thought he picked some really good actors that no one has really even heard of. For beign a bunch of no namers they were phenominal and kudos to them.
I liked that the director showed what life is really like in India and how hard it is to do something with your life if you don't come from any money. The director did a great job on writing the story and making this film so that it was enjoyable and easy to watch. It always kept your attention and I liked how he did that. The part that was so cool was how he was getting all these questions that nobody should get right and he was because of all the different things that had happened to him in his life. The part of the movie I thought the director did a great job of doing.
There were plenty of symbols in this movie and one has to be the hundred dollar bill and how the blind kid knows exactly what he has in his possesion. It is not known around those parts of India and no many people even get to see one of those in their lifetime because of how poor they are down there.

"Amelie" 2001
So the reason for this movie was I talked with some other past classmates who have taken this class and they all said that "Amelie" was a good movie and it was a love movie. Since it is hard for me to watch tv or any time of movie on my own time I have to convince my fiance to watch it with me. I told her that this movie was a love movie and so she let me and I'd have to say it really wasn't that bad and I actually enjoyed it.
It was directed by a man named Jean-Pierre Jeunot who also direct, "Delicatessen" and "City of Lost Children." I can't say that I have ever even heard of this director or any of the other movies that he has directed and I thought I was up in my movie game but I guess i was wrong. Some of the key actors in this film are Audrey Tautou (Amelie), Mattieu Kussovitz (Nino Quicampoix), Serge Martin (Dufayel), Rufus (Raphael Poulain), and Lorella Casvotta (Amandine Poulain).
Some key moments in the movie where when she found a little tin box in her bathroom and then she swears that she will return to the original owner no matter what. I find it kind of cool that she seem to be the match maker for everyone but herself and she doesn't really seem to want anyone to know. Kind of like a little grade schooler when they first like someone and their shy about the whole situations is what she reminded me of.
The themes of this movie were simple love and romance and more love and romance. It was great movie for these themes because it wasn't like one that I have seen. I liked that it was different and that people recommended me to watch it.
The analysis of this movie is that it was done well, it's hard to argue when it us up for so many awards and I believe won a lot of them for this movie. The director did a good job with this movie and it is good to see a small name actor that you don't hear a lot about making a good film and getting some recognition for it. It got a little confusing at time but made more and more sense as the movie went along. Possibly it was a little confusing just so that the viewer would feel they way Amelie was feeling and also how Audrey was playing her role in this movie. I liked how the director did it though I like being a little confused during a movie that way it keeps my attention through out.
The acting was very good for being actors and actresses that I personally have not heard of and don't think that a lot of other people have either. I was impressed with how well done this movie was and I would be curious to see how his other movies are that he directed. It's a very simple movie when it's all said and done I think, it's just a girl who has an incredible personality and even bigger imagination and just like everyone else she wants to find that person that will love her. So I think the movie did a great job of hitting this key point.
I think some of the messages that the director is trying to get through are that with the right person and the right kind of love that true happiness can occur. That you never know when your gonna walk into that persons life that you love so much and not even know that you just did so. Another one that I think was being betrayed was that you should never be afraid to go after who/what you want no matter what!
Some symbolism in this movie would have to be I think the person drinking water was Amelie because after all she know who she was and was searching to find her self. And the painter never could figure it out until she met the one that she loved.

"Good Will Hunting" 1997
The director of this movie was Gus Van Stant, he also directed "Milk", "Elephant", and "Psycho". I have not seen any of these other movies but I would have to say that I really enjoyed "Good Will Hunting", I have seen this movie before and every time I see it i always get hooked on it. I think the director did an amazing job on this film in every sense of the way. I can only hope that if i was to watch one of the other movies listed above that they would be just as good as this one us.
The main characters are Will Hunting (Matt Damon), Sean Maguire (Robin Williams), Chuckie Sullivan (Ben Affleck). All of these actors are some of the best in the buis. I prefer the movies of Robin Williams and Matt Damon before I would go check out a Ben Afflecked movie but I really liked Ben Affleck's role in "The Town" and made me wanna see more of his stuff.
There were plenty of memorable moments in this film, such as when Will meets Skylar in the bar while he defending his buddy Chuckie, that moment would end up changing his life forever. I thought it was cool when he doesn't say a word for the whole interview but he preceeds to tap his finger for the whole hour. Obvious this movie has a quote in it just like Casablanca that is still used today and is still said by everyone and that is "how you like them apples." Another moment I thought was when memorable is when Will goes into the classroom and finishes multiple problems on the chalkboards with no problem.
Some themes that I picked up on while watching this movie were true love, friendship tell the end, dealing with demons from the past. Strength in oneself to overcome anything in you path.
My over all analysis of "Good Will Hunting" is that is was a fantastic movie. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck did an amazing job at playing there roles in this movie and I can see why they are were they are today. This movie really jump started their careers in my opinion. Although I do not think that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were the key part to this movie, I believe it was Robin Williams and his brilliant acting skills. He plays every character to a tee in every movie that he is in and I think that he showed the way to Matt and Ben in their careers and I don't think anyone could of played the role of the therapist better than Williams did. This movie had a very powerful message in it and it definately got it through to the vieweres.
The overall evaluation of this movis that it was awesome. It's crazy to think a guy just a janitor could be so smart and not doing anything about his smarts for so long, but that's were his personal life stories come in to the picture and make sense why he is so messed up and why he hasn't achieved too much in life. The other crazy thing is that I don't know if a lot of people know is that Affleck and Damon wrote this script when they were college. That's just mind blowing and to think they probably didn't think it would turn out to be such a success like it was. All the parts in this movie were played so well and you have to be impressed with how everything was brought together through out the whole movie.
I think the over all message in this movie is to not be afraid what our future holds for us. We all need to take risk and being willing to take the chance to fail and be able to get back up and do it all over again until we succeed. You don't want to go through life and say what if, so you might as well try and tell the story of what happened.
There were plenty of symbols in this movie like the painting in Sean's office which I believe showed all the pain that he was going through because of his wife's death. The Shamrock that you see thoughout the movie was a symbol of the were the movie took place, Boston also were Damon and Affleck are from and love so much. I also think Skylar was a symbol of the future and how someone can change for the better and have some faith in their own life.

"Casablanca" 1942
This movie was directed by Michael Curtiz who also directed The Adventures of Robin Hood, and White Christmas two movies that were classics for their time. Needless to say but he directed some of the best movies of his era. Casablanca is just another movie that is always going to be a classic and I don't believe I have met anyone who has seen Casablanca and didn't like it in some way.
The main characters of the movie were Humphry Bogart (Rick Blaine), Ingrid Berman (Ilsa Lund), Paul Henreid (Victor Laszlo), Claude Rains (Capt. Renault).
Obviously a most memorable moment in the movie would have to be one of the most known lines in the movie buisness today "here's to looking at you kid". Some other memorable movie moments were when Rick talks to Victor about love and truth. Also another memorable moment is when Rick decides to let Ilsa go with Victor and he shoots Streusser. Rick shoots the German Sargent just so his love can escape.
There were a couple themes in this movie true love, friendship, hope, coruption.
This movie was awesome I really liked it although I have seen it before I could watch it over and over again. I think it is a great love romance for its era but it wasn't to cheezy like some love movies. It's fun to watch old movies that were done right because you get to see a whole different way of acting and you also get a feel of how the old days were before we even were around. I really like the acting of Humphrey Bogart it seemed to me that he new what he was doing and he played the role to a tee. The movie had the classic love story of many of the movies that we see now in theatres around the country.
All around this movie was extremly good. The acting, plot and the settings were all done so well and expecially for its time. The director did a great job but thats what's expected from this guy his other movies that I have seen were done well to and I have nothing bad to say about either. Some people might complain about the movie being in black in white but if you are a true fan of movies I think you can appreciate a movie that was done like it was. For example when you watch the three stooges from the old days they are in black and white and as time went by they eventually made it to color, and in my opinion the three stooges in color just doesn't seem right. Just like if this movie was in color I don't think it would be as good, not even close actually. The movie being set during WWII was cool and it did a lot for the movie and added to movie a lot.
I think the director was definately trying to get some messages through to the viewers. People become who they are because of the different experiences that each of them have gone through in life. Growing and up and experiencing things molds you into the person that you have become in your own life. Love was another message that was being told in this movie in the way that sometimes no matter how much you love someone you both know you just can't be together, it's unhealthy for the both of you and will never work out. I think Rick getting his heart broken right away made the movie better because it made Rick more a hard ass and have the bad guy feel where he just doesn't give a hoot anymore. Ilsa played the same role as all women do in all movies we see today, a girl who cant figure out she wants and doesn't know what to do with herself. Always leading someone on but really wanting to be with the other and then back again. So i don't think that her part was all that significant but obviously she need to be in it just to make that love movie.
There were some symbolisms in the movie such as Rick's Cafe was basically America and people went there to get away for the oppression going on. The different officer represents the different people such as the United States, France and Germany. I also think that this makes it a greater connection to WWII. Which the director does a good job of putting symbolism into the movie.
I recommend this movie to everyone and I think everyone should see it. It was a great movie and shows a lot of stuff movies now days don't i think. You can tell a lot of time and effort went into this movie and it's planning along with acting which was phenomenal.

"On the Waterfront" 1954
In this movie the main characters are Marlon Brando (Terry Malloy), Karl Malden (Father Barry), Lee J. Cobb (Johnny Friendly). This movie is very old and from a whole different time era but I would give it a 7 out of 10 and the only reason is because the movie has a good moral message that is being sent.
A couple of the most memorable moments in the movie was when Father Berry was lifted up off the ground by a crane and also when Terry talks to his brother for the last time in the car was a pretty powerful moment.
When I think back to the movie and take a look at the themes of it I would have to say that the power of faith, doing what you think is morally right and corruption would be the main themes. My overal analysis of the movie is that it was a good movie even though it was an older one. I feel that the movie is still relevant with our society today and that it is crazy how that can be. No matter how far back you go you still seem to watch something and it still applies today. I did enjoy the old ganster theme that was taking place during the movie. I thought that the music was a little on the loud side but that could of been because thats what is was like to live on a shipyard. The ending could of been better because it was bit on the corny side.
The overal evaluation of this film is that the acting was on the sub par side of things except for the parts of Terry and Father Barry, were played out very well but besides them the other roles in the movie were just not that great and could be done way better. But the fact that the movie and it's themes are still relevant to today's society is a strong point for the movie and that the director did a good job of thinking things through.
This movie obviously has messages in it like i've said earlier in this post. Some of them are that it is never to late to do the right thing, that with a lot of power comes corruption. I think one other message that is being sent is to always keep faith no matter.
In the end this movie was alright and was well directed. I would have to say that I probably wouldn't watch it again though if I had a choice in the matter. But I would recommend people to see it and watch and give me their feedback on the movie.

This movie obviously has messages in it like i've said earlier in this post. Some of them are that it is never to late to do the right thing, that with a lot of power comes corruption. I think one other message that is being sent is to always keep faith no matter.
In the end this movie was alright and was well directed. I would have to say that I probably wouldn't watch it again though if I had a choice in the matter. But I would recommend people to see it and watch and give me their feedback on the movie.
