Jednak nigdzie indziej, tak jak w Stanach Zjednoczonych, od wyników wyborów nie zależy tak wiele. Ich wynik będzie miał wpływ nie tylko na to, którą drogą podążać będzie Ameryka, ale także na wydarzenia w skali globalnej. Od tego, kto zostanie nowym gospodarzem Białego Domu – przywódcą jedynego światowego mocarstwa – uwarunkowane są losy całego świata. W świetle konstytucji Stanów Zjednoczonych kandydat na prezydenta musi być obywatelem amerykańskim urodzonym w Stanach, mieć ukończone 35 lat i mieszkać, od co najmniej 14 lat na terenie USA. Takie same wymagania dotyczą także kandydata na wiceprezydenta. Co więcej nie może on pochodzić z tego samego stanu co kandydat na prezydenta. Prezydent USA wybierany jest w wyborach pośrednich. Data wyborów przypada zawsze w pierwszy wtorek, po pierwszym poniedziałku listopada. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

  • Psycho by Charles Taylor “The a List: the National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films,” 2002
    Psycho By Charles Taylor “The A List: The National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films,” 2002 Reprinted by permission of the author The impact of Alfred Hitchcock’s “Psycho” owes so much to its two big surprises that when the film opened in 1960 Hitchcock not only refused to allow press screenings but had theaters hire Pinkerton security guards to prevent latecomers from entering the theater once the picture had started. He wanted to keep the people who hadn’t bought tickets from finding out that Janet Leigh’s Marion Crane is stabbed to death in the shower only forty-five minutes into the movie, and that the murderer is Antho- ny Perkins’s Norma Bates, who has succumbed to the personality of the mother he murdered years before. In many ways, “Psycho” seems like a death knell for the studio system that would lumber on for a few more years before collapsing later in the decade under the weight of filmmakers and audiences sick of the old stultified formu- Alfred Hitchcock holding a clapper on the set of “Psycho.” las.

  • Kurosawa Kiyoshi Profile Prepared by Richard Suchenski Articles Translated by Kendall Heitzman Profile
    Kurosawa Kiyoshi Profile prepared by Richard Suchenski Articles translated by Kendall Heitzman Profile Born in Kobe in 1955, Kurosawa Kiyoshi became interested in filmmaking as an elementary school student after he saw films by Italian horror filmmakers Mario Bava and Gorgio Ferroni. He formed a filmmaking club in high school and made his first Super 8mm short film, Rokkô, in 1973. Kurosawa continued making short 8mm films as a student at Rikkyô University, where he began to attend classes on cinema taught by Hasumi Shigehiko, the most important film critic and theorist of his era. Hasumi’s auteurist approach and deep admiration for American cinema of the 1950s deeply influenced a generation of Rikkyô students that, in addition to Kurosawa, included Suo Masayuki, Shiota Akihiko, Aoyama Shinji, and Shinozaki Makoto. While still a student, Kurosawa won a prize for his film Student Days at the Pia Film Festival in 1978. After presenting Vertigo College at Pia in 1980, he worked on Hasegawa Kazuhiko’s The Man Who Stole the Sun (1979) and Sômai Shinji’s Sailor Uniforms and Machine Guns (1981). Kurosawa was invited to join the Directors Company, an alternative to the major studios that offered creative freedom to young directors such as Hasegawa and Sômai. Under their auspices, he made his feature film debut with the pink film, The Kandagawa Wars, in 1983. Kurosawa next attempted to work directly for a major studio by directing a Nikkatsu Roman Porno entitled Seminar of Shyness, but the studio rejected the film, claiming that it lacked the requisite love interest. The film was eventually purchased from Nikkatsu and released as The Do-Re-Mi-Fa Girl in 1985, but the incident gave him a reputation as an idiosyncratic character and made securing funding for other studio projects difficult.

  • Psycho Workbook Sample Answers Character Development in Psycho
    Psycho Workbook Sample Answers Character Development in Psycho When writing about how a character is established and developed, you can refer to a range of production elements, including: camera techniques, acting, mise-en-scene and visual composition, editing, lighting and sound (including music and dialogue). 1. How is Marion Crane established and developed as a character? Refer to the use of camera techniques, music, acting and dialogue (10 marks). In the opening sequence of Psycho, Alfred Hitchcock uses a range of techniques to establish the character of Marion Crane, including camera techniques, music, acting and dialogue. Dialogue is used extensively throughout this scene to establish Marion as a character, revealing that her and Sam are unable to be together because Sam is still paying his ex-wife alimony and living behind a hardware store in Fairvale. Marion is tired of their secretive relationship. "Oh, we can see each other," she says. "We can even have dinner - but respectably - in my house, with my mother's picture on the mantel, and my sister helping me broil a big steak for three." Sam professes a deep love for her, conceding that he wants to see her under any circumstance, "even respectability". Acting also makes an important contribution to character development throughout this scene. When Sam suggests that after dinner they ‘send sister to the movies and turn mamma’s picture to the wall’ Marion appears shocked at the suggestion. This reinforces the notion that she wants them to have a ‘respectable’ relationship. Although dialogue is primarily used to establish Marion and Sam as characters, shot selection and music also makes a contribution.

The personality of the director will also be analyzed due to his turbulent relationships, especially with actresses, which highly affected his way of working. To pursue this objective, Laura Mulvey’s theory about the male gaze will be used, together with other theories from Gender Studies (e.g. Tania Modleski’s and Camille Paglia’s), as will be the biography of the director written by François Truffaut. After presenting a general overview of Hitchcock’s world, I will explore his methods of working, paying attention to the production of Psycho and to the film itself in relation to gender issues over the course of the different sections of the dissertation. The object of this analysis is not to discredit Alfred Hitchcock’s prestige, since his work is exceptional, but instead to ascertain whether Psycho is indeed as misogynist as his filmmaker’s reputation.
