  • Film Analysis Of The Movie 'La Dictadura Perfecta'

    1756 Words  | 4 Pages

    The movie, “The Perfect Dictatorship” (“La Dictadura Perfecta”), directed and produced by Luis Estrada and released in 2014, is a political, satirical comedy story of two reporters attempting to repair the image of a corrupt governor after he signs a deal with the boss of their television company, Television Mexicana. That’s one way we could describe the plot of the movie. Another would be that the movie depicts the inherent corruption of the Mexican government and the lengths to which they will go to retain (or regain) their reputation. Equally, we could see the movie as a demonstration of the corruption of the Mexican media and the ways in which the media influences and effects politics. In fact, the

  • Analysis Of The Spanish Film Even The Rain

    707 Words  | 2 Pages

    The 2011 Spanish film, Even the Rain, attempts to tell the story of Columbus’s explorations of Latin America as well as parallel those events with the water crisis that Bolivia has faced due to the privatization of water. While the film remained relatively historically accurate on the pretense of Columbus, it became glaringly obvious that the amount of effort that went into being historically accurate on the Bolivian front was dramatically less. Furthermore, the film uses the water war of Cochabamba to further the plot of the movie while disregarding the majority of the facts regarding the real water crisis that occurred. Additionally, the neglection of these details provides the heavy implications that the indigenous peoples of Bolivia are still being taken advantage of to further the gains of Europeans.

    Michael is one example of many young individuals who go through a time of having no place to call home or no one who accepts them. The night Leigh Anne pulled over to see what Michael was doing, he was on his way to the school gym to stay warm and dry. Michael didn’t have a home to return to every night because his mother chose drugs over him when he was a young boy. The morning after Michael was welcomed into the Tuohy household, Leigh Anne chased Michael down the driveway because he was leaving. He had nowhere to leave and return to, but he wasn’t used to having a place to stay for longer than a couple nights. Being homeless is not easy for anyone, but especially not for young children because they feel hopeless at such a young age and when someone actually tries to welcome them with open hearts, many can be unsure what to do. Leigh Anne set up a room in her house for Michael and after talking about the bed he said, “It’s mine?” (Film) Leigh Anne was confused by his question but he followed by saying, “I have never had one before” (film).

    I chose to analyze Despicable Me, an animated film geared towards a younger audience, because I was interested in examining underlying theories and messages that this film would be relaying to its viewers. Often times, when watching animated films, children are not aware of these messages, as they are absorbed by the characters, special effects, and humor. But as we have learned throughout this semester, our brains are subconsciously primed by the various surroundings we are exposed to. Since we also studied the impacts of entertainment, such as television and video games, on children, I wanted to see how a popular children’s film might also affect them.
