  • A Pilot Method for Movie Selection and Initial Results
    Movies for use in Public Health Training: A Pilot Method for Movie Selection and Initial Results Nick Wilson,* Rachael Cowie, Michael G Baker, Philippa Howden-Chapman Department of Public Health, University of Otago, Wellington, New Zealand October 2009 *Correspondence to: Dr Nick Wilson Department of Public Health, University of Otago, Wellington PO Box 7343 Wellington South, New Zealand. Phone (64)-4-385 5541 ext. 6469 Fax (64)-4-389 5319 Email: [email protected] Abstract Background: A method for systematically identifying, selecting, and ranking high quality movies for public health training does not exist. We therefore aimed to pilot a method and use it to generate an initial selection of suitable movies in a range of public health categories. Methods: To identify possible movies, systematic searches were undertaken of two large movie databases. If meeting minimal criteria for entertainment value (using public and critic ratings), the movies were then systematically evaluated for training suitability. Results: Using the search strategy we developed, it appeared feasible to systematically identify movies of potential educational value for public health training. Out of a total of 29 movies selected for viewing and more detailed assessment, the top ranked 15 were selected as having reasonable potential for training. There was a high correlation between scores of the movie assessors (Spearman’s rho = 0.80, p<0.00001). Also 75% of the top 15 movies were found to be referred to in Medline-indexed publications. Conclusion: This pilot study was able to develop a method for systematically identifying and selecting movies that could potentially be used for public health training.

  • Dead Poets Society: Final Script
    Dead Poets Society: Final Script original screenplay by Tom Schulman, film directed by Peter Weir This is the final script of the theatrical release of Dead Poets Society. It was obtained from Simply Scripts and initially contained only the dialog from the film. (No descriptions, actions, locations, anything...) I went through the script and added in descriptive text. As I have not had a chance to double check everything, I am sure there are a few errors, typos, or bits of incorrect dialog still. I'll try to verify it all shortly. INT. WELTON ACADEMY HALLWAY - DAY A young boy, dressed in a school uniform and cap, fidgets as his mother adjusts his tie. MOTHER Now remember, keep your shoulders back. A student opens up a case and removes a set of bagpipes. The young boy and his brother line up for a photograph PHOTOGRAPHER Okay, put your arm around your brother. That's it. And breathe in. The young boy blinks as the flash goes off. PHOTOGRAPHR Okay, one more. An old man lights a single candle. A teacher goes over the old man's duties. TEACHER Now just to review, you're going to follow along the procession until you get to the headmaster. At that point he will indicate to you to light the candles of the boys. MAN All right boys, let's settle down. The various boys, including NEIL, KNOX, and CAMERON, line up holding banners. Ahead of them is the old man, followed by the boy with the bagpipes with the two youngest boys at the front.

  • False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen
    False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 Director of Thesis: Amanda Klein Major Department: English Woody Allen is an auteur who is deeply concerned with the visual presentation of his cityscapes. However, each city that Allen films is presented in such a glamorous light that the depiction of the cities is falsely authentic. That is, Allen's cityscapes are actually unrealistic recreations based on his nostalgia or stilted view of the city's culture. Allen's treatment of each city is similar to each other in that he strives to create a cinematic postcard for the viewer. However, differing themes and characteristics emerge to define Allen's optimistic visual approach. Allen's hometown of Manhattan is a place where artists, intellectuals, and writers can thrive. Paris denotes a sense of nostalgia and questions the power behind it. Allen's London is primarily concerned with class and the social imperative. Finally, Barcelona is a haven for physicality, bravado, and sex but also uncertainty for American travelers. Despite being in these picturesque and dynamic locations, happiness is rarely achieved for Allen's characters. So, regardless of Allen's dreamy and romanticized visual treatment of cityscapes and culture, Allen is a director who operates in a continuous state of contradiction because of the emotional unrest his characters suffer. False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen A Thesis Presented To the Faculty of the Department of English East Carolina University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MA English by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 © Nicholas Vick, 2012 False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick APPROVED BY: DIRECTOR OF DISSERTATION/THESIS: _______________________________________________________ Dr.
