Peer gynt :Ase's Death
The protagonist little brother is put to rest, - a symbolic visual at this point, no blood, no murder, but images of the little boy laying motionless.
Ase , as I will call him, goes on with life, rising in rank in the underworld
He goes from nothing to a big boss, much like scarface
(beggining shows him struggling trying to cope with the death)
Irrational bursts of rage are depicted
He loses his way...
Images of downtown dallas and creepy cellars will be used
The video will depict some of the come up and show how overtime he became lifeless just as his brother.......
His life becomes a game and he does not care if he is to lose it
He makes money ,has the girls , everything , but still empty......
At the very end the last scene is men rushing in and he faces his death through the barrel of a gun
The final shot is him laying aside his brother, finally content.

Series Review
Teen wolf by Jeff Davis is a show that has run for five seasons now. It is based on a 1985 film of the same name where a teenager is bit by a werewolf and must cope with the resulting effects. The film revolves around an outcast by the name of scott( Tyler Posey) who is bitten by a wolf all of a sudden. His friends are also very involved with a mythical background. Allison is the love interest who comes from a family of werewolf hunters, Lydia is a banshee, and Derek is a mysterious werewolf and mentor. The series has gone out for five seasons now with very random twists and turns. The writer incorporates myhtologies from different hemispheres to keep the show fresh and unpredictable. I love the dialogue, it stays funny and yet teenage like. Although all the actors are in the mid 20s, they can embody the personalities of teenagers. During the 4th season half the characters die,Scott has a new japanese fox spirit girl, and the season is left with a cliff hanger. I look forward to the fifth season :)

Tarantino
Tarantino has made a movie that's someway different from many other action, gangster or crime movies. What's so different? He knows the subject of the movie is "cool", he knows it's a product of mass culture, and he even likes it by himself. But he smiles at it and tells three great stories with a lot of irony. And this irony is the first point. The second point is that he gave souls to extremely schematic characters. They surely aren't another action heroes who you forget as fast as you can twinkle. They are human beings like we are, talking about Burger King and McDonalds, about TV series and a foot massage. They just earn their money with killing others or selling drugs. What else is so great about "Pulp Fiction"? It's the acting, the directing, the cinematography, the soundtrack, the sense of humour and the whole rest.
Quentin Tarantino was born in Knoxville, Tennessee. He dropped out of high school after his freshman year to become an actor. He worked in a video store and never attended film school. He began his career in 1992 at Sundance with Reservior Dogs, an immediate hit. Pulp Fiction was released two years later in 1994. In 1997 he releases Rum Punch, followed by Kill Bill (2003), Death Proof (2007), Inglorious Bastards (2009), and Django Unchained (2012). He is currently finishing The Hateful Eight, set for release in 2015.

Hollywood studio Era
John Ford's Stagecoach is said to be a leading example for many other westerns to come. Being one of the earliest major hollywood films would definitely give the movie the publicity it deserves.
The film is about a group of diverse characters set to leave New Mexico for Lordburg, and stars such as Claire Trevor, Louise Patt, John Caradine, and of course John Wayne give life to Dudely Nichols' screenplay. Of course the trip can't be all smooth; on the journey there is love interest conflicts, an escaped outlaw on the loose, and a wild indian shootout. This film serves as as a basis for all the other mimics to come.
The hollywood studio era was a time when actors became "stars" and were often owned such as some celebrities are today. Binded by contract, an actor had to partake in any work decided for them and or could be loaned to other studios at whatever time. This was a golden age; when the depletion of theatre began and the rise of film was birthed. Towards this time is when films became not about the normal man, but fantasies that we all have. 20th century fox, Paramount, MGM, Warner Brothers are some of the companies that started the revolution and they are still in production today. Grossing over billions of dollars.
Below are some clips from stagecoach :)

Exit Through the Gift Shop
The movie is about the underground world of street art and specifically an artist named Banksy. He's never been before seen, and throughout the movie for the first time he films himself but never really reviels his identity. The film starts with a Los Angeles street artist named Thierry Guetta, as Banksy recalls "he tried to make a film about me, but I made a film about him". Guetta through his cousin, Invader, gets into the street art scene and follows artists documentaring the world of street art until he becomes Banksy's guide in lose Angeles. Getting bored himself Guetta ends up becoming and artiost himself and even creates his own show. At the end of the movie theres a huge sale that grosses a million off of street art themed work. Banksy is said to have edited the actual film, from 10,000 hours of footage of vandalism condensened into just two hours. The shots during the movie include some from a bystander point of view, often times the camera is looking threw a car window as Banksy is painting or he just sets down the camera while he works. There are shots of public reaction to the misceallaneous works of Banksy, such as a warped telephone both in the middle of London. The film is known as one of the best modern documentaries.

Film Review~~~~ The Punk Singer by Sini Anderson
The Punk Singer is Kathleen Hana. Anderson uncovers the tale of why the voice of a generation goes silent.
Lead singer of the band Bikini Kill, Kathleen Hana, was one of the most influential feminist icons of the 1990s. Anderson takes us deep into the story through a mash up of archival footage and interviews, decoding the mystery of what happened to the Riot grrrl. Hana would often sing as a way to empower women, while "keeping it real". She is brutally honest, admitting that she had once been a stripper, and also singing about molestation and being used by men. During the movie you find out that the real reason behind the music stopping was that Hana had caught an illness known as Lyme disease, but this is not the interesting part. There is alot of controversial aspects to Hana and her choices, such as marrying Adam Horovitz, from Beastie Boys, who once sang about women doing his laundry.In order for the film to not seem biased at all, Anderson gives us multi-generational perspective, having interviews with important people such as Tavi Gevinson from the Rookie Magazine and Jennifer Baumgardener of the feminist press speak on what Hana means to them.
For a documentary, this is a good one, great close up footage of performances , along with lively speakers being interviewed. What more could you want? I recommend watching this film if you are a fan of punk rock! rebel!
