Maybe you have read the book and at the same time, follow the movie adaptation. Did Jamie Dornan’s hot bod follow the critical and descriptive lines of the E.L. James novel? Is Dakota Johnson innocent and brunette enough for your liking? Well, it does not matter because both actors are already done with filming Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed. But for those who are avid fans of the book, the movies may fall short of expectations. Many see the books as a story of romance and discovery. In addition, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed has more meat in terms of the story line in comparison to the first book. So, if you are thinking about watching the movie on Valentine’s day next year, here are five reasons why you should:
1.Christian Grey’s dominant shows her face. Kim Basinger, who plays Mrs. Robinson in the sequels, will turn the heat up by confronting Anastasia Steele. It is a sneak peek into Christian’s old life. How is the old bag going to threaten the couple? 2.Leila Williams, the other brunette that wants to love her master. Bella Heathcote will play the role. And the submissive-psychotic is out to make things right. 3.That disgusting character in the book, Jack Hyde. Eric Johnson is set to play Ana’s boss. But the guys behind the movie describe him to be softer and loving in the film. Why the complete opposite from the book? 4.This is going to be Dornan’s last reprisal of Christian Grey. Of course, the movies are based on the books. Which means the trilogy is complete. But the actor went on to say that if ever a fourth comes up, Inquisitr cites, that he is “done.” He wants to move on to another project and leave Grey in the past. 5.Dornan speaks about his falling out with writer E.L. James and director Sam Taylor-Johnson. He explains that there was a ton of pressure in the making of the movies. And he understand why. Which means that there is a lot of love, sweat and tears in this movie. So you should watch it all. Watch out for Fifty Shades Darker to hit theaters on February 10, 2017. While Fifty Shades Freed is set to premiere on February 9, 2018.
This is my view on the movie and book. I likes the movie better the book because the
In the movie dwayne plays a good part. Dwayne was the guys that stuck up for them even though people did not like their documentary. Dwayne did get shot although that did not happen in the book. Another difference most of the characters that were in the book looked way younger that what the picture said that they looked like in the book. The book did not tell us that Lloyd liked to gamble. Lloyd gambled and almost got shot in the movie. In the movie Lloyd was like the bad guy in the movie, the movie told only bad things about Lloyd and only good things about LeAlan. Another difference in the movie is that the boys who threw Eric Morse out the window were sentenced to Juvenile Detention Center till the age of twenty-one. This is a big part because they never told what the verdict was which made it seem like they were let free from what they did. The last difference is in the movie the vacant apartment that in the book said that it looked creepy and run down it looked really nice in the apartment and I did not really understand why no one lived there.
Overall, the movie and book have many differences and similarities, some more important than others. The story still is clear without many scenes from the book, but the movie would have more thought in it.
For my final essay, I have chosen the movie “Fatal Attraction”, and I will focus on Alex Forrest and her mental disorder. Borderline Personality was displayed in the movie and Alex had almost every symptom of this disorder. Throughout this essay, I will be discussing Alex’s characteristics, intelligence, motivation, stress, social influences and/ or personality theories, treatment, and if the depiction of the disorder and treatment is consistent with what was discussed and read in the course.
Ken Kesey's award-winning novel, "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest", was adapted into a film in 1975 written and directed by New York City native Bo Goldman and Czech director Milos Forman. Towards the end of the novel and film, Chief Bromden escapes from the ward. This scene is conveyed differently in the novel and film; however, there are evident similarities between each form of media. This scene is important to the plot because it wraps up the entire storyline. In the film and novel, similarities within Chief Bromden’s escape from the ward include the way Chief escaped, how he couldn't hear anyone in the ward due to being deaf, and how McMurphy assisted Bromden with gaining his confidence to lift the panel and throw it through the window. McMurphy essentially changed Bromden to help him break out of the asylum and back into the real world.
Relationships are complicated, not every relationship will last, and this seems to be the most apparent with romantic relationships, as these types of relationships two partners will often come together and open up to each other and become very close. Every relationship needs effective communication, and this is evident in the film, The Breakup; starring Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. This film ties in with Interpersonal Communications very well as it portrays its message of poor communication very well. Models of Relational Dynamics, couples conflict styles, crazymakers, and conflict in relational systems are some of the topics that the film perfectly depicts.
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
On Saturday July 29th, 2017, I was able to catch one of the funniest movies I’ve seen in a while, Girls Trip. I was able to view the movie with four of three of friends of mines at the Regal Moorestown Mall Stadium 12 & RPX, located in Moorestown, New Jersey. My experience started with the aromas of popcorn. I am one of those type who has to have popcorn with lots of butter while enjoying a movie. After I purchased my popcorn and bottled water I was ready to enjoy this night with my friends. However, I wasn’t the one who purchased the tickets so the seats choices where horrible. They were floor level, on the very far right and third row. Still trying to make the best out of it I reclined my see as far back as possible so my neck would bother me the during the movie. The theater was packed, mostly with women.
Furthermore, one of the main differences between the movie and the novel, Twilight, are the characters. Although both stories share the same characters and background information about the characters, there are differences in their

“The Vow” is a movie that encases the turmoil and hardship associated with retrograde amnesia and the classic symptoms and steps associated with recovering and potentially regaining lost memory. Taking into account the information gained through multiple sources; such as, lecture of Mental Health, medical databases, and the personal experiences of Krickett Carpenter, the Vow provides both an accurate and inaccurate depiction of retrograde amnesia.

The movie, Fifty Shades of Grey, portrayals its dominant ideology sexuality through the story between two main characters: a female literature student named Anastasia Steele, and a young male billionaire Christian Grey. In this movie, it indicates strong traditional heterosexuality, and it reflects the gender roles about submission and dominance, which leads to gender inequality through misinformation. Although entertaining and refreshing, this movie brings more negative impacts more than positive ones.
