1979's Alien, directed by Ridley Scott, is a brilliant exercise in mood and atmosphere building up to a horror film of excruciating terror. The design of the alien, the strong performances and direction, and the straightforward, inescapable tale of a haunted house in space make it a landmark science fiction film. Part of its brilliance comes from its examination of power relationships, exemplified by the tug of war between Ripley and the Alien. Through the lenses of Devor and Cohen, a pair of crucial scenes in the film will be explored in terms of their exploration of power.

The alien itself maintains all of the ...

Any person can acknowledge that sex sells, particularly Carl Jr. Considering the commercials done by Mr. Carl Jr., it is clear that he uses models that are extremely sexualized for more than ten years. There is no exception to the advert where Charlotte McKinney, a model was the center of everybody’s attention for the approximately 50 second commercial. After a closer look at the advert, this essay is to give its presentation more into what goes in the commercial rather than just boobs and burgers.

“Murderball” Review: Masculinity in Men with Disabilities

In the movie “Murderball,” directed by Rubin and Shapiro, the paraplegics who play for the USA rugby team are practicing to compete in the Athens 2004 Paralympics. However, the most interesting part of the movie is the individual story of each character that is not always directly connected to rugby or their daily activities. Rather than focusing on their sport and the violence required to excel at it, it is more interesting to listen to their accidents, choices in life, and their paths to rehabilitation and leading a normal life. The behavioral aspect of the movie “Murderball” is the most ...

Directed, produced and written by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, 'Miss Representation' is an American Documentary film that brings out the farcical reality of women empowerment with only 17% women as elected officials in Congress and 7% as directors in Hollywood movies.

Another part which is quite unacceptable to me is when the drag queen danced with one of the boys. The dance moves were mimicking the sexual act. It may be said that ...
