  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Brutal Is
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Brutal is an extremely ruthless or cruel. Brutality is the quality of being brutal, cruelty, and savagery. Brutality is one of the factors that are used to increase the terror; the other terror factors are violence, sadism, and graphic blood. Brutality is the part of cruelty. Cruelty is one of the danger signals of personality sickness. A “sick” personality is one in which there is a breakdown in the personality structure which results in poor personal and social adjustment, just as in physical illness, the person does not behave as he normally does (Hurlock, 1979: 389-403). Brutality in A Nightmare on Elm Street Movie is reflected by the main characters, namely Krueger. He kills many teenagers through their dreams, it is called “A Nightmare” and this phenomenon happens on Elm Street. So, it is the reason why this film is entitled “A Nightmare on Elm Street”. A Nightmare on Elm Street is a 2010 American slasher film directed by Samuel Bayer, and written by Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, based on a story by Mr. Strick and characters created by Wes Craven; director of photography, Jeff Cutter; edited by Glen Scantlebury; music by Steve Jablonsky; production designer, Patrick Lumb; costumes by Mari-An Ceo; produced by Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller; released by New Line Cinema, Warner Brothers Pictures and Platinum Dunes. Running time: 1 1 2 hour 42 minutes. The film stars Jackie Earle Haley, Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker and Kellan Lutz. It is a remake of Wes Craven's 1984 film of the same name and the ninth Nightmare film in total, it is designed to reboot the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise.

  • Anniversary Kick-Off Celebration
    HHBth ANNIVERSARY KICK-OFF CELEBRATION MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2014 70TH ANNIVERSARY KICK-OFF CELEBRATING SEVEN DECADES OF HB STUDIO MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2014 MANHATTAN PENTHOUSE A NOTE FROM OUR PRESIDENT Welcome, honored guests! For seven decades, HB has been an artistic home for generations of theatre artists to train and practice. Tonight we celebrate the thousands of performers, directors, and designers who have studied and taught at HB, and we remember our visionary founders who established this unique institution. We are fortunate to have with us this evening an impressive group of artists who will bring to life the arc of HB’s history and share with us their own experiences of the Studio. We are proud of our connection with them and the many thousands more friends and alumni out in the world enjoying successful careers as theatre artists – or working in other professions but still benefiting from their experience working, practicing, or training at HB. HB has taken tremendous strides forward as a resilient arts institution. Recently, HB garnered increased philanthropic support and implemented exciting new programs. A grant from the Noël Coward Foundation, for example, launched a series of events including panel discussions and acting workshops. Always remembering and honoring the artistic integrity and vision of Herbert Berghof and Uta Hagen, the current HB family revitalizes their legacy by ensuring that the Studio remains relevant in the 21st century. Thank you so much for joining us this evening for this very special celebration. I am grateful to my fellow Board members for their dedication, to the Benefit Committee for their support, to the HB staff for their hard work, and most of all to the incredible artists who continue to make HB a vibrant and vital resource for the theatre community.
