Bansom And Angela Branstrom: Film Analysis

154 Words1 Page

A story about a guy new to the city gets robbed by his cab driver, misguided by street hustler and then uneventful lady, only to recover his belonging accidentally. The script, by E. Albert Bansom and Angela Branstrom, was not constructed to be a movie. It just appears like a sequence of co-incidences. The movie was recorded outdoor, probably using camera mic, with a lot of background noises cutting the actual dialogues. The camera work, by Jonathan Bivins and Brad Simon, is a plain amateur. Most the shots are not in focus and framing was awfully off. The one good thing that we take out is the acting by Nathaniel Elfant, Nicholas Conlon and France Jean-Baptiste. Editing was done by Mark Peamchareon, nothing appreciative but nothing deteriorating.

Martin and Daniel Lindsay, an underprivileged black high school football team tries to break the streak of never having won a playoff game as long as the school has been around.

    The pictures shown in this movie are still in black-and-white style as it was released in 1961. Actually the pictures were good, but viewers can not enjoy it fully as the black-and-white pictures will really bother them. It is the only weakness I can found in this movie and it is really unfortunate but it also still can be accepted as it was a 1961 movie. Talking about actors and actresses, they casted excellently in the movie. They did their job very well.

    1335 Words  | 6 Pages

    The film 13th directed by Ava DuVernay targets an intended audience of the Media and the three branches of the United States government with an emphasis that mass incarceration is an extension of slavery. It is intended to inform viewers about the criminalization of African Americans and the United States prison boom. 13th uses rhetorical devices in its claim to persuade the viewers by using exemplum in the opening seconds of the film. President Barack Obama presents statistics, saying “the United States is home to 5% of the world’s population but is home to 25% of the world’s prisoners.” Also the film uses a hyperbole in talking about the movie Birth of a Nation produced in 1915 which portrays a black man as a violent savage who will kill white women.
