Prim and Poofy
Prim and poofy Craig Courtice, Alison Broverman and Jodie Katz, National Post Published: Friday, November 30, 2007 Filmmaking is a collaborative art, so why isn't film reviewing? Each week in this space, experts, artists and paying movie customers come together to take apart a recent release. It's salty. It's full of hot air. It's the Popcorn Panel. THIS WEEK'S PANEL - Craig Courtice, a short filmmaker who isn't very tall - Alison Broverman, freelance writer and occasional playwright - Jodie Katz, whose own wedding gown was inspired by Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Check her out at www.thesocialbutterfly.ca. THIS WEEK'S FILM ENCHANTED Craig Ah princesses, the scourge of feminists everywhere. These lasses seem content to go through life searching for nothing but a prince. Enchanted certainly winks at all the princess films of yore, but despite its meta-fictional packaging, it's still gooey Disney on the inside. Alison Gooey is right. I've never been much into princesses -- my feminist friends and I often sit around ranting about how bad Disney's princess marketing tactics are for women; princesses are boring and passive, and they never do anything! Surely little girls should be taught to aspire to more than just wearing pretty dresses? I was hoping Enchanted would be a satirical, subversive romp. It wasn't, although it had some clever moments; I loved the New York vermin cleaning up the apartment and the queen's crony questioning his sense of self while watching a soap opera. Also, is there anyone more adorable in the world than Amy Adams? Her character should be cloying and irritating, but she's just so damn charming that she kind of makes the entire film work.

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging.

TRANSCRIPT OF INTERVIEW WITH ACTOR, WRITER, AND DIRECTOR NICK CASSAVETES DREAMPATH PODCAST, EPISODE 46 May 6, 2020 Host: Bryan Smith [00:00:00] Nick Cassavetes: Love is everything. The rest of it, there's nothing else that matters. The rest of life is bullshit only love. So if you have a point of view of what you're actually trying to make, especially with an experienced actor, they know what you want. And then it gives them freedom to like, not make choices that are out of the director's comfort zone. And they can do whatever the heck they want, you know? And, Even if you're the most technically gifted actor in the world, everybody always gets in trouble. Everybody always, there's something happens and you just try to be there and, you know, through a series of permission givings, make sure the actor's comfortable and that it's okay for him to dig deep and be as authentic as he can be. Bryan Smith: Brian Smith here and welcome to the DreamPath Podcast, where I try to get inside the heads of talented creatives from all over the world. My goal is to demystify and humanize the creative process, and make it accessible to everyone. Now let's jump in. [00:01:00] Nick Cassavetes is on the show today. Nick is an actor, screenwriter and director. Nick's dad, John Cassavetes, was a pioneer of independent cinema in the 70s and 80s, writing and directing classics like Gloria and Woman Under the Influence, both starring Nick's mother, Gina Rowlands.

1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Literature
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Literature is a permanent expression in words of some thoughts or feeling or idea about life and the world. Literature is also the writing or the study of books, valued as works of art (drama, fiction, essay, poetry, biography, contrasted with technical books and journalism). The main generic of literature today is poetry, drama and the novel. There are some ways to express ideas, especially in a literary work. There is a literary work that brings us to the world of dreams and takes us away from reality. Most human in social life communicating with others are looking for relationship. When communication is going well between each other in a relationship, people will look for one basic need of human being that is affection. Affection is a disposition or rare state of mind or body that is often associated with a feeling or type of love. It has given rise to a number of branches of philosophy and psychology concerning emotion, disease, influence, and state of being. "Affection" is popularly used to denote a feeling or type of love, amounting to more than goodwill or friendship. “Affection is defined as feeling warmth and fondness toward someone, which can be manifested through affectionate communication, involving verbal and non-verbal massages that communicate feelings of fondness, support, and love." (Floyd, 2006: 47) 1 2 The expression of affection is anything that could be said to or about the other persons that cause them to feel encouraged, loved, or validated. This included, but is not limited to, the obvious statement “I love you”.

From the initial guidance of Professor Musheno and Christina Carbone to the astute guidance of my advisor, Professor Perry, I am forever thankful. My family, too, has supported me mentally and even intellectually. To my Aunt Diane, I owe you so much for your direction and insight. I never would have parsed out a coherent thesis without our conversations at The Natural Café. Additionally, a never-ending thanks to those who supported me, made sure I didn’t give up, and listened to my unending laments without disowning me: Kent, Mike, Brendan, Safeena, Dani the entire Student Advocate’s Office, and everyone else who spent any iota of time listening to my laments. 2 Table of Contents I.
