Sample Copy-Not for Sale or Distribution “Brent Marchant’s Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Mov- ies entertains while providing a primer for how each of us can help to manifest a radically improved reality for all of us in these tumultuous times. This gem of a book addresses a rich panoply of psychological topics, encouraging us to recognize hidden treasures buried even amidst the murkiest emotional depths. Without sounding preachy or prescriptive, Marchant deftly guides us toward the creation of a pos- itive new paradigm at this pivotal point in human history—sharing priceless lessons gleaned from more than 60 extraordinary films. Third Real whets our appetite to see each of the featured films with newfound appreciation for how their lessons can best be added to our conscious creation toolkit for use in our personal lives—and for the best outcome for us all.” Cynthia Sue Larson Best-selling Author Quantum Jumps: An Extraordinary Science of Happiness and Prosperity Reality Shifts: When Consciousness Changes the Physical World RealityShifters Guide to High Energy Money www.realityshifters.com “Perhaps you have witnessed the cinematic ‘burn mark,’ a trigger to the traditional film projectionist to start the next reel. Author Brent Marchant’s latest offering, Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Movies, is that giant, satisfying third reel that reveals enhanced principles of conscious creation. Brent uncovers new directions of consciousness, of awareness through examples in cinema that have real- world implications, shifting humanity’s future to a braver and more fulfilling existence.” Tom Cheevers Proprietor and Host TheCoffeeCast Podcast www.thecoffeecast.com “In his latest book, Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Movies, author Brent Marchant states “I’m convinced that we’re truly on the verge of our own third reel/third real moment, and we’d better Sample Copy-Not for Sale or Distribution get busy before it escapes us and the credits start to roll.” I couldn’t agree more. As a public librarian and reader/listener/viewer advisor to a diverse customer base, I think it is more important than ever to encourage deeper thinking and broader experiences in order to understand more fully how one can redirect and affect the course of one’s own future. “Marchant applies the concepts of conscious creation to over 60 movies produced over the past 30 years not previously discussed in his two earlier titles, updating his film canon of careful consideration and analysis. For readers who are unfamiliar with conscious creation and the work of Jane Roberts, the author provides a comprehensive yet neatly summarized overview in the Introduction. Each of the 11 chapters considers a collection of titles curated by theme—for exam- ple, Living in the Moment (Harold and Maude, You Can’t Take It with You, Still Alice, On My Way, Gleason)—and relates these titles to each other by overarching concept. “Painstakingly researched and footnoted, Third Real: Conscious Cre- ation Goes Back to the Movies is highly recommended for film studies, the casual moviegoer and as a viewer-advisory resource for libraries.” Dodie Ownes Librarian Denver Public Library “Movie lovers and students of consciousness, rejoice! Here’s another brimming volume from metaphysical cinephile Brent Marchant. Equally adroit in plot synopsis and character analysis, Marchant once again serves up a treasury of conscious creation principles and techniques—all illuminated by well-chosen, well-crafted films. As the Kung Fu master says, ‘Watch and learn.’” Irene O’Garden Off-Broadway Playwright Prize-winning Author Glad to Be Human, Fat Girl and Fulcrum: Selected Poems “Brent Marchant skillfully exposes hidden layers and dimensions bur- ied in the many remarkable movies Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Movies meticulously explores. Readers will end up watching Sample Copy-Not for Sale or Distribution these movies again and would undoubtedly experience and enjoy them even more. A must read for film lovers, filmmakers, film critics and everyone interested in conscious creation.” Sunil Shah Writer and Director “πhe Wisdom Tree” https://www.thewisdomtreefilm.com/ “Brent does a superb job of using movies to explain the essence and power of the law of attraction! This is a must read for movie lovers and those looking to create the life they’ve always dreamed of! “ C.S. Closson Author, Stories…That Are Short Founder, Project Bring Me 2 Life www.projectbringme2life.com “Another gem for Brent Marchant! Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Movies deepens the conversation about how our thoughts and beliefs impact and shape our lives. By offering several movies to illustrate each concept, Brent has developed a method of walking in another’s shoe’s and gives his readers a unique way of experiencing these rich ideas from many perspectives. My Netflix queue has just gotten much longer!” Kerstin Sjoquist Creator Bliss Trips guided meditation products http://blisstrips.com/ “Like fine wine, Brent’s books improve with each vintage. In Third Real, not only do you get insightful and in-depth movie reviews, but you receive something so unexpected, a new way of looking at movies and your life because of his wisdom and thought-provoking conscious creation interpretation. I also loved the interesting surprises, like little-known documentaries and cable specials that I may never have known about! You may have a hard time putting this book down.” Katana Abbott, CFP®, CSA Life and Legacy Coach Host, Smart Women Talk Radio www.KatanaAbbott.com Sample Copy-Not for Sale or Distribution “Saturday Night at the Movies meets the X-Men School for the Gifted! Bravo to Brent Marchant for Third Real—an informed and entertain- ing guide to creating our best selves while enjoying the movies that enlighten our present and future worldviews. Read the book, watch the movies, do the inner work, and have fun while you create a more conscious and happier you!” Joanne Helfrich Author The Way of Spirit “Reading Brent Marchant’s third book, Third Real: Conscious Creation Goes Back to the Movies, I am reminded why I like interviewing him so much. He has a way of seeing things that we naturally miss, the in-between-the-lines, so to speak. I have seen some of the movies he talks about in this book, but now I wish to see them again because of what I have missed. Also, some movies I was not interested in I now wish to see, because he has made them intriguingly inviting. We all seek some meaning from a movie, a connection, an understanding, a reflection of self, but do we watch these movies from our inside out, of just let it wash over us? “Brent has a gifted insight into the characters and the very purpose of a movie. We see what the movie is about from a place of inner comprehension and mirroring that image of inner truth back to us. I will be interviewing him on this book and look forward to speaking to some of the movies he has written about from a new perspective. “We all gain when we truly see, and Brent has a gift of seeing and opening us to our conscious selves in a way that is unthreatening and refreshingly honest. Thank you, Brent, until the next show.” Sara Troy Founder and Host Self Discovery Radio https://selfdiscoveryradio.com/ “A solid academic view of important movies (popular and obscure) from the last 30 years, a real film buff’s treat with excellent insights into what makes a movie connect with an audience.” Sam Hawksmoor Author www.samhawksmoor.com Sample Copy-Not for Sale or Distribution “I love reading Brent’s interpretations and views of the movies I have seen, and have yet to see, in his latest book, Third Real, which helps us to understand the principles of the law of attraction and to derive the deeper, sometimes-hidden meanings behind the story lines. It makes watching (and sometimes rewatching) the movies more entertaining and yet more meaningful at the same time, allowing us to relate our own lives to the characters and journeys portrayed on film.” Rose-Anne Partridge Founder, RealLifeChanges.com Family Wellness Inspiration and Special Needs Strategist, Life Coach and Author “Part movie critic, part philosopher, Brent Marchant’s evocative reviews highlight the universal themes and spiritual lessons to be found in his great selection of films.

  • Trauma, Dissociation, and Amnesia: Myths and Reality in Cinema and Life
    Trauma, Dissociation, and Amnesia: Myths and Reality in Cinema and Life A look at the psychological responses to trauma that include dissociation and amnesia, phenomena which are often misunderstood in the media and public perception. After looking at models that explain common responses to trauma, including post-traumatic stress, traumatic amnesia, and dissociative identity disorder (formerly called multiple personality disorder), we will screen five films that portray these conditions in various contexts. All are Hollywood produced. The stories have sometimes been manipulated to add drama so as to appeal to popular audiences, which is one of the dynamics this course will examine. Session 1 / Jan 31, 2020: Lecture/discussion: An overview of the mechanisms and dynamic of memory and the ways in which it is subject to traumatic distortion, dissociations and episodes of amnesia. We will focus on understanding dissociative and amnestic responses to trauma as defensive and self-protective mechanisms. When seen in this context, behaviors that often seem bizarre begin to make sense. Session 2 / Feb 7: Prince of Tides (1991) / the screen adaptation of Pat Conroy’s portrayal of the range of responses to childhood trauma in a dysfunctional, violent family. Starring Barbra Streisand and Nick Nolte, the film was also directed and produced by Streisand. Session 3 / Feb 14: The Three Faces of Eve (1957) / The Hollywood portrayal of a real-life case of dissociative identity disorder. This is the film that brought the phenomenon of multiple personalities to public attention, was highly acclaimed when it was released, and set up beliefs about multiplicity that lasted for decades.

  • The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather
    Finding a Voice: The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather Macdougall A Thesis in the PhD Humanities Program Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada August 2012 © Heather Macdougall, 2012 ABSTRACT Finding a Voice: The Role of Irish-Language Film in Irish National Cinema Heather Macdougall, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2012 This dissertation investigates the history of film production in the minority language of Irish Gaelic. The objective is to determine what this history reveals about the changing roles of both the national language and national cinema in Ireland. The study of Irish- language film provides an illustrative and significant example of the participation of a minority perspective within a small national cinema. It is also illustrates the potential role of cinema in language maintenance and revitalization. Research is focused on policies and practices of filmmaking, with additional consideration given to film distribution, exhibition, and reception. Furthermore, films are analysed based on the strategies used by filmmakers to integrate the traditional Irish language with the modern medium of film, as well as their motivations for doing so. Research methods included archival work, textual analysis, personal interviews, and review of scholarly, popular, and trade publications. Case studies are offered on three movements in Irish-language film. First, the Irish- language organization Gael Linn produced documentaries in the 1950s and 1960s that promoted a strongly nationalist version of Irish history while also exacerbating the view of Irish as a “private discourse” of nationalism. Second, independent filmmaker Bob Quinn operated in the Irish-speaking area of Connemara in the 1970s; his fiction films from that era situated the regional affiliations of the language within the national context.

  • Romantic Comedy-A Critical and Creative Enactment 15Oct19
    Romantic comedy: a critical and creative enactment by Toni Leigh Jordan B.Sc., Dip. A. Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University June, 2019 Table of Contents Abstract ii Acknowledgements iii Dedication iv Exegesis 1 Introduction 2 The Denier 15 Trysts and Turbulence 41 You’ve Got Influences 73 Conclusion 109 Works cited 112 Creative Artefact 123 Addition 124 Fall Girl 177 Our Tiny, Useless Hearts 259 Abstract For this thesis, I have written an exegetic complement to my published novels using innovative methodologies involving parody and fictocriticism to creatively engage with three iconic writers in order to explore issues of genre participation. Despite their different forms and eras, my subjects—the French playwright Molière (1622-1673), the English novelist Jane Austen (1775-1817), and the American screenwriter Nora Ephron (1941-2012)—arguably participate in the romantic comedy genre, and my analysis of their work seeks to reveal both genre mechanics and the nature of sociocultural evaluation. I suggest that Molière did indeed participate in the romantic comedy genre, and it is both gender politics and the high cultural prestige of his work (and the low cultural prestige of romantic comedy) that prevents this classification. I also suggest that popular interpretations of Austen’s work are driven by romanticised analysis (inseparable from popular culture), rather than the values implicit in the work, and that Ephron’s clever and conscious use of postmodern techniques is frequently overlooked. Further, my exegesis shows how parody provides a productive methodology for critically exploring genre, and an appropriate one, given that genre involves repetition—or parody—of conventions and their relationship to form.

  • Untitled Warrior Olympics Project, for Neal Moritz and Sony; San Andreas 2, with New Line; and Rampage, Also Through New Line, with Dwayne Johnson Attached to Star
    Short Synopsis After a single-mother (Carice van Houten) witnesses terrifying symptoms of demonic possession in her 11-year-old son (David Mazouz), a Vatican representative (Catalina Sandino Moreno) calls on wheelchair-bound scientist Dr. Seth Ember (Aaron Eckhart) to rid him of the evil spirit. Driven by a personal agenda rooted in his own tragic past, Ember enters the boy’s unconscious mind where he confronts a demon as ferocious as it is ingenious. Long Synopsis Eleven-year-old Cameron (David Mazouz) alarms his single mother Lindsay (Carice van Houten) when he begins isolating himself on the floor of his dark room, speaking in ancient languages and displaying other symptoms of demonic possession. Alerted to the situation, Vatican representative Camilla (Catalina Sandino Moreno) recruits wheelchair- bound scientist Dr. Seth Ember (Aaron Eckhart) to extract the evil spirit from the boy. A non-believer who drinks, smokes and prefers to think of his work as “eviction” rather than exorcism, Ember sets up shop with high-tech assistants Riley (Emily Jackson) and Oliver (Keir O’Donnell). Strapped into a life-support system, he enters Cameron’s subconscious mind, where the demon holds the boy captive in an imaginary dream world by appealing to his deepest desire: to be reunited with his estranged father Dan (Matt Nable). Driven by tragic events in his own traumatic past, Ember engages in a fierce battle with the crafty spirit. Ever mindful that the demon, known as “Maggie,” travels from one victim to the next through physical contact, Ember knows that his desperate attempt to save Cameron’s soul could make him the demon’s next host.
