In the 1800’s silver was becoming popular and most people were moving west to try and get rich. It was becoming very crowded and lots of people were not making lots of money as planned. The Lone Ranger series shows problems that were going on during this time. It also shows how Indians and Robbers were doing at this time. The Lone Ranger series can be called on of the best series ever. The Lone Ranger has influenced mass media because it was one of the first shows of that time. It also got tons of people very interested and addicted to it which led more advanced forms of the series came out. All of the Lone Ranger series are very similar. They all have the same characters. They all follow the same story line. They also have similar problems and conflict throughout all of them. The show was the base of all …show more content…
the problems then how it got more popular more things started happening. The TV Show was the first form of picture in the series. This whole series was based of the Radio but added more detail because of the pictures. It also showed the action portion of the series. The Movie is a summary of all the shows. It was a very entertaining movie because it had around thirty years of shows all put into a short period of time. I like what they did with all them. When you have similarities you must all ways have some differences.
What I found to understand is that the first Radio Show was a lot more cowboy and was focused more on the era where everyone was still moving west and how all the railroads were being put up. I also thought that was more boring because they explained the action instead of showing. The TV Show Tanto and The Lone Ranger already have a relationship. They already know who each other are and is kind of starting where the last one ended off. It seems a little weird because I would think they would try to start it all over again but they just started by adding adding on to the other one. The Movie has info from both shows but has a way different beginning. In the beginning they are enemies. The Lone Ranger tries to capture Tanto and arrest him for being on the train at that time. Tanto wants to kill him after he was captured but the spirit horse told him to keep him alive. That's when they are first becoming friends. They also have a lot of weird conflicts and how people always know where they are. There is also a little more technology that I don't think they would have had in real life at the
time. All three forms of the series has there own similarities and differences. They are all reflecting to the same point though. They have a similar story line and plot but all make them unique. If there is ever another add on to the story I think they should add more action and add more story line to show how Tanto ends up in the museum. I think people will regain interest in watching tv if that comes on and shows more of it.
Because of the outlaw hero’s definitive elements, society more so identifies with this myth. Ray said, “…the scarcity of mature heroes in American...
In the movie, it is told in a third person point of view and the characters look a lot more different than how they do in the book. The movie goes by much quicker than the book. Also Pony goes straight home after the church burns down.
Most westerns have a heroic cowboy that fights against corrupt officials to save a small helpless town or a person in need of help. They also have women who are attracted to the cowboy, and Indians who the cowboy usually fights. The cowboy is moral and fights for good because he is free from civilization its deceit and the wilderness (Wright, 2001, pp. 18-58; Belton, 2009, pp. 248-249). Most cowboys who emerge in western films are honest and forthright.
Apart of being a solid picture in and of itself, this is a film that is important for historical and artistic reasons and like The Godfather or Star Wars(1977) are, it is an essential piece of American film history. It shows the divergence in society and how it’s handled by the different communities. So this movie doesn’t only still thrive from the film critical viewpoint but also still reflects human social behaviors that didn’t change in the last 40 years. The only continuity during the movie is brought by the bikes and costumes of the three main characters, with the only omission being the missing motorcycles in the campfire scene due to a theft of the bikes during the last weeks of filming. After Billy gets hit and Captain America hands down is jacket to cover him, he drives of for aid and gets consequently executed himself and his motorcycle bursts in pieces. The continuity is broken, they tried to grasp for freedom and unleash the chains of society, still society found them and got them
There were many things that were the same about the movie and book but I choose the main things that needed to be told. First off, True Son believes that he isn’t white and never will be. This is a very important part of the story so they had to include it in both because it shows how True Son changes throughout the story.
The similarities are quite apparent, the movie plot mainly follows the basic plot that the book took, leaving the viewer’s with a sense of accomplishment, as this is sometimes not achieved in the highest degree. Scout still has a brother, Jem. They both still meet Dill and have a few adventures with him throughout the film. Jem and Scout still have a single father, Atticus, having lost their mother many years ago. Calpunia is still their cook. And the whole story still has an overpowering sense of focusing on two main stories, Boo Radley (Arthur Radley) and Tom Robinson’s trial.
Every character of Ford's Stagecoach was derived from the ‘B' westerns to years before. Each one is usually introduced in that genre of the ‘B' western. Ford has a unique way he portrays these characters. He shed new light on stereotypes that are not commonly broken. It truly was one of the many factors that made this film unique.
According to Ray “Embodied in the adventurer, explorer, gunfighter, wanderer, and loner the outlaw hero stood for that part of the American imagination valuing self-determination and freedom from entanglements” (378). He is referring to an outlaw charter from the wild west for example Davey Crockett or Jesse James who according to Robert Ray were outlaw legends that had “mythical” (378) stories told about them in order to increase their legend, ego, and popularity. These types of heroes according to Robert Ray were the outlaws that embodied the gunslinger mentality that would appeal to audiences who lived on the frontier or in the wilderness. Another type of hero according to Robert Ray are a smaller breed of legend or “The Good Good Boys” (378). These legends included George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Robert E. Lee. These men were either generals who served in the military ...
The storyline is normally about a hero who comes to a town to bring peace and drive the villains out. A hero is usually seen as a vigilante as he is not told to come to help but does anyway. The hero often appears as a quiet, secretive, mysterious person who may make the audience admire him one minute and dislike him the next, he is also a very smart, cunning and adaptable which are all good values in a hero. The villain is usually fixed to one idea he thinks it is a smart cunning person but in the end is always defeated. Many scenes are set around the Saloon (bar) and there is quite often a romance involved with the hero and a local girl, the villain competing for her affections! There are two different types of villains in typical westerns Native Americans and white villains (cowboys).
The cowboys of the frontier have long captured the imagination of the American public. Americans, faced with the reality of an increasingly industrialized society, love the image of a man living out in the wilderness fending for himself against the dangers of the unknown. By the end of the 19th century there were few renegade Indians left in the country and the vast expanse of open land to the west of the Mississippi was rapidly filling with settlers.
The most Difference about the Novel and the movie is that they live on different sides in both , In the novel they tell east and west. These sides are divided between the Socs and greasers. they both live on the separated sides, but go to school together. but They are so different.
The characterization between the the novel and movie were alike; yet very different. In the novel, I imagined the characters wearing different clothes, I imaged them wearing dirtier, more raggedy clothing, because it was a old and worn down town. Also, being able to see the characters in the movie, provides a different perspective the reader doesn't get from the novel. I feel that Scout is a more developed character in the novel. She is used as the narrator, thus the stories in the novel are all based
Jack Schaeffer’s, Shane, is the perfect embodiment of the Western formula used to create films about the Wild, Wild West. The text has all the necessary elements to create the perfect Western movie. The first component of the formula is a threat to the community that just moved out west, whether it is Indians, other ranchers, or even nature itself. The second component is lack of defense from the community, due to the homesteaders not being able to protect themselves against the threat posed upon them. The third component is the presence of a hero, a single entity that has the skills of the community’s threat, but in turn uses those to help the community. Shane is the ideal film created from the western formula, consisting of a threat, a lack of defense, and a hero.
This movie makes the people more to know about wild west era legend especially for the story about the legend of Billy the Kid. Billy the Kid story can be lesson especially about his action in order to bring justice and fight the lawless frontier. So we can conclude this Billy the Kid movie is a good movie to watch and the moral value contained in this movie are so good. I like this movie altough this is not a long movie and just a part of the series
Some of the differences I found were how the character was feeling. In the movie he had got used to the them coming to visit him. In the book he always had a different emotion that he felt or how the spirits welcomed him. Also the book had a lot more detail that the movie didn’t show. One more I had found was how the book had ended comparison to the movie. It was more dramatic. The movie had only told what he was doing next.
