The Disney movie, Pocahontas might be a fiction version of the real Princess Matoika, but it is still a distortion of history. Moreover, displaying an erroneous relic of history in a prestigious dome of the country is a disgrace for the brave Native Americans, who courageously defended their territories against the English colonizers. Pewewardy in his article, “The Pocahontas Paradox: A Cautionary Tale for Educators” stressed that the character of Pocahontas in the movie was a sellout among the Native Americans. She was unjustly represented as a supporter of the race who was invading their tribal territory. The movie erased the issue of historical injustice ...

The movie theater might well serve as a cave and if the message was re-casted using a movie theater the emotional power would have been extremely powerful as the message that the power and capacity of learning already exists in the soul and many people do not see the opportunities on the brighter side. For example, if a person has to move from darkness to light, instead of moving the eyes, the person would move the whole body.

Undoubtedly, the internet has revolutionized the movie and the entertainment industry in general. It has become very easy for one to access most of the movies in the internet. Initially, movie distribution used to be a reserve of the creators and their agents. This ensured that almost all the gains from them went to the main stakeholders. The main limitation of this was the limited audience reach. The high distribution costs also limited the extent to which they could be supplied. The result was that some markets remained unexplored, thus maximum returns were not derived from the sales.

In this report, we discuss the relationship among the four variables which are commonly used to measure the success of a motion picture and establish whether there is a coherent correlation from one variable to another.

Entry One: When I Am Old, I Shall Wear Purple

In some ways, there is a certain freedom for the elderly. Many people spend their younger lives trying to do the right thing, ...

In the English-speaking cinematography, 1995 was the year of Jane Austen.
