  • Juno Talent: Ellen Page, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, Alison Janney, J. K. Simmons, Olivia Thirlby. Date Of
    Juno Talent: Ellen Page, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, Alison Janney, J. K. Simmons, Olivia Thirlby. Date of review: Thursday 13th December, 2007 Director: Jason Reitman Duration: 91 minutes Classification: M We rate it: 4 and a half stars. Jason Reitman, son of ultra-mainstream (and very successful) Hollywood director Ivan Reitman (he of Ghostbusters, Stripes and Kindergarten Cop fame) may just be able to move out from under his father’s significant shadow with this wonderful film. Jason Reitman’s breakthrough film as a director was 2005’s Thank You for Smoking, a cleverly written and very well performed black comedy that was so well pulled-off that one felt in the presence of promising new talent. It seems that feeling was correct, because with Juno, a very different film to its predecessor, Reitman has made an utterly assured and charming comedy/drama, and has drawn tremendously convincing and engaging performances from the entire cast. The talented young actress Ellen Page (who was so memorable in the confronting thriller Hard Candy) plays the titular character, an intelligent, articulate, out-of-left- field high-school student who, as our story opens, finds herself pregnant to her close friend and would-be boyfriend, Bleeker. Being smart, strong and self-possessed, Juno confronts her situation level-headedly, and decides, on reflection, that she will go through with the pregnancy and offer her child for adoption to a couple who are unable to conceive. With the support of her family - stepmother Bren (the wonderful Alison Janney) and father Mac (the ever-humourous J.

These rhetorical elements of the job are not prescribed in the Constitution and as a result it is the presidents themselves who help shape the cultural understanding of presidentiality, of what it means to be president. When President Barack Obama participated in a “Slow Jam the News” comedy sketch on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in 2012, he took the rhetorical presidency to a place it had never been before.

  • What Characters Learn and What They Never Will
    What characters learn and what they never will This session was written by Lucy for The Script Factory’s I © screenwriting course presented at BFI Southbank, June 2013. The teaching points in this lecture are mostly illustrated with reference to the following four films: Argo (dir. Ben Affleck, scr. Chris Terrio, 2012) Sightseers (dir. Ben Wheatley, scr. Alice Lowe & Steve Oram, 2012) Up in the Air (dir. Jason Reitman, scr. Jason Reitman & Sheldon Turner, 2009) Animal Kingdom (dir./scr. David Michod, 2010) Screenwriting lore dictates that characters should learn life-improving lessons through their experiences. Pardon our French, but that’s bullsh*t! In many films the external challenges the character faces are so great that it’s imperative that they are equipped with the necessary attributes to tackle those obstacles from the outset. In other movies the characters remain obstinate despite what life throws at them and their inability to change is exactly what the film is about. This session examines how to chart convincing character journeys and, if your character does need to overcome a flawed attitude to life, how to ensure that the difference in whom they are at the beginning and end of the film is clearly marked. By far the most vital way that an audience literally gets on board with what’s at stake in a story is through the characters. This is because we generally go to see films in order to have an emotional experience. There are probably exceptions but, on the whole, we don’t buy tickets because we want to be educated, we are not hoping to improve our minds or learn a lesson – we are going to the cinema to have a vicarious experience through watching characters do stuff.

CLAREMONT McKENNA COLLEGE FILM REVIEW AGGREGATORS AND THEIR EFFECT ON SUSTAINED BOX OFFICE PERFORMANCE SUBMITTED TO PROFESSOR DARREN FILSON AND DEAN GREGORY HESS BY NICHOLAS KRISHNAMURTHY FOR SENIOR THESIS FALL / 2011 November 28, 2011 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my parents for their constant support of my academic and career endeavors, my brother for his advice throughout college, and my friends for always helping to keep things in perspective. I would also like to thank Professor Filson for his help and support during the development and execution of this thesis. Abstract This thesis will discuss the emerging influence of film review aggregators and their effect on the changing landscape for reviews in the film industry. Specifically, this study will look at the top 150 domestic grossing films of 2010 to empirically study the effects of two specific review aggregators. A time-delayed approach to regression analysis is used to measure the influencing effects of these aggregators in the long run. Subsequently, other factors crucial to predicting film success are also analyzed in the context of sustained earnings.
