Movie themes The recent surge in the popularity of dance movies is undeniable. As an avid viewer and fan of the genre, I tend to watch these movies more to enjoy the sterling choreography and camera plays on display than actually looking into the underlying themes the films possess. Now, watching them again with a more analytical eye, it is hard to miss the major issues dealing with everyday society, which such films aim to portray. Beyond the apparent clichés and romance that are usually easily noticeable the first time round, for the inattentive viewer, there are much more important themes that come into play, as can be seen in recent films such as Save the Last Dance, and Street Dance 3D. Hybridity is an accepted aspect of modern dancing. Sara, in the film, Save me the last dance, as detailed earlier, is a young girl trying to adapt to her new school. She is a promising ballet dancer who, after getting introduced to Derek by her friend Chenille, gets immersed in the world of hip-hop dancing upon gaining interest…

The Metaphor in Station Eleven Comic Books The author centralizes the writing technique around the use of metaphors which adds an interesting sophistication to the writing experience and enhances the whole reading experience. The story presents a metaphor in the manner through which the world seems to collapse following the apocalypse and then creates a sense of hope that the now destroyed universe will not impede their journey back home (Barnett). It is, however, ironical, to think that there is any hope of going back since there is absolutely no way to get back to the things they initially had before the apocalypse gripped the world. There has been a divisive schism in the story. We get to trail the story of a group of individuals who after an extended period of perpetual twilight now desire to head back into the world and beg for reprieve in a world now inhabited and dominated by aliens. Their chances are slight in this regard. As the story is being told, they dwell in the Undersea, which is a vast interconnection of temporary…

She Sings the Blue The film, “She Sings the Blue” is set with an American viewpoint of an American view. The film gives a presentation of a traditional Hindu story that revolves around the legend Prince, Ramayana and the demon king, Ravana. Despite the main character being male, the film dramatically presents women’s cry for equal treatment and upholding of truth and justice. The film takes the shape of Ramayana; a traditional Hindu fork tale that describes the life an exiled prince, Rama of the kingdom of Kosala during the reign of the devil king Ravana. The story is a form of allegory that depicts characters in the structure of ideal family set up. The film is ethnocentric because despite the unclear presentation of the producer’s ethnicity, the Indians are used to present evil human giants ruled by a demon king and an ogress queen, and with the rescuers of humanity depicted as the monkey army. The film is a presentation of a traditional Hindu story using the Indian culture as a basis for the plot. However, how the…
monarchy had more influence on a national level in the community’s The feudal system was brought into England by William the Conqueror, Barlow says that “This thorough feudalisation of England increased the actual and the potential power of the monarchy” [1] Wickson however states that “the Norman conquest saw a wholesale of landownership and among the beneficiaries were the great churchmen”[2] It can be argued that the monarchy became more wealthy and powerful due to the development of the exchequer, which allowed taxes to be monitored and could “maintain pressure on those who owed them”[3] The church’s tithe system also took money off people as a form of tax, however the money and produce taken from the church may have been seen by communities to be better spent. Arnold says “In contrast to the occasional royal tax spent on foreign wars tithing provided a local service immediately visible and accessible to all”[4] This shows that although the monarchy had more influence on a national level in the community’s, people may have actually “not much resented”[5] the transaction of giving tithes.[6]…
The Theme of Resurrection in ATale of Two Cities Resurrection or being recalled back to life has been a fascinating aspect in the world culture. For instance, mythologies recorded in the Ancient Greece and Rome have featured heroes, gods and other creatures like Phoenix, Osiris and Orpheus that after dying came back to life in new forms. On the other hand, Christianity which is a predominant religion especially among the Western world has been built on the belief of Jesus Christ resurrecting to save mankind from sin. In the Charles Dickens novel “A Tale of Two Cities” and which mainly scrutinizes the French Revolution, one of its main themes is resurrection. And although there is no evidence of characters being brought back to life literally, there are various forms of spiritual resurrection which have been presented. For instance, the novels has begun with Dr. Manette being “recalled back to life” after spending 18 years in prisons and ends with yet another form of resurrection although with a minor implication through a character who willingly sacrifices himself but while he is almost…
