Harvey* This Article focuses on the oft-neglected intersection of racially skewed outcomes and anti-competitive markets. Through historical, contextual, and empirical analysis, the Article describes the state of Hollywood motion-picture distributionfrom its anti- competitive beginnings through the industry's role in creating an anti-competitive, racially divided market at the end of the last century. The Article's evidence suggests that race-based inefficiencies have plagued the film distribution process and such inefficiencies might likely be caused by the anti-competitive structure of the market itself, and not merely by overt or intentional racial-discrimination.After explaining why traditional anti-discrimination laws are ineffective remedies for such inefficiencies, the Article asks whether antitrust remedies and market mechanisms mght provide more robust solutions.

Coming-Of-Age Film in the Age of Activism
Coming-of-Age Film in the Age of Activism Agency and Intersectionality in Moonlight, Lady Bird, and Call Me By Your Name 29 – 06 – 2018 Supervisor: Anne Salden dr. M.A.M.B. (Marie) Lous Baronian [email protected] Second Reader: student number: 11927364 dr. A.M. (Abe) Geil Master Media Studies (Film Studies) University of Amsterdam Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank Marie Baronian for her first-rate supervision and constant support. Throughout this process she inspired and encouraged me, which is why she plays an important part in the completion of my thesis. I would also like to thank Veerle Spronck and Rosa Wevers, who proved that they are not only the best friends, but also the best academic proof-readers I could ever wish for. Lastly, I would like to express my gratitude towards my classmate and dear friend Moon van den Broek, who was always there for me when I needed advice (or just a hug) during these months, even though she had her own thesis to write too. Abstract The journey of ‘coming of age’ has been an inspiring human process for writers and filmmakers for centuries long, as its narrative format demonstrates great possibilities for both pedagogy and entertainment. The transformation from the origins of the genre, the German Bildungsroman, to classic coming-of-age cinema in the 1950s and 1980s in America saw few representational changes. Classic coming-of-age films relied heavily on the traditional Bildungsroman and its restrictive cultural norms of representation. However, in the present Age of Activism recent coming-of-age films seem to break with this tendency and broaden the portrayal of identity formation by incorporating diversity in its representations.

Power Money & Power in Goodfellas a Film Student ENG
Running head: Power 1 Purpose: Use this modeled example of the Week 3 Written Assignment to explore the elements that make this an exemplary submission. Hover over the number or scroll to the end of the text to read about what the student has done well in this assignment. Money & Power in Goodfellas A Film Student ENG 225: Introduction to Film Professor Director Stardate 2259.55 Power 2 Money & Power in Goodfellas Martin Scorsese’s film Goodfellas (1990) is a gangster drama that shows the audience what it is like to be a part of the Mafia. This film is mainly told from the point of view of Henry Hill, played by Ray Liotta, who knew as a child that he wanted to be a part of the crime family. This film shows Henry Hill’s “thirst for and rise to power,” which is its major theme (Goodykoontz & Jacobs, 2014, Ch. 4.2, para. 12). The movie Goodfellas shows the power that comes with money, the power of choice, and the power of persuasion, all of which are established through cinematography, acting, costuming, and design. With money comes power. This is shown in “The Long Take” scene in which Henry Hill and his date are walking into the Copacabana nightclub. Scorcese uses a continuous tracking shot to show Henry gladhanding the nightclub staff the resulting respect he is given, not only by the staff of the nightclub, but the other patrons inside. This cinematographic technique portrays Henry Hill as a man of importance. The camera stays low, making him look tall, and stays with him through the back entrance, a hallway, the kitchen, and into the dining room where he is given his own table in front of everyone else.

Film & Literature
Name_____________________ Date__________________ Film & Literature Mr. Corbo Film & Literature “Underneath their surfaces, all movies, even the most blatantly commercial ones, contain layers of complexity and meaning that can be studied, analyzed and appreciated.” --Richard Barsam, Looking at Movies Curriculum Outline Form and Function: To equip students, by raising their awareness of the development and complexities of the cinema, to read and write about films as trained and informed viewers. From this base, students can progress to a deeper understanding of film and the proper in-depth study of cinema. By the end of this course, you will have a deeper sense of the major components of film form and function and also an understanding of the “language” of film. You will write essays which will discuss and analyze several of the films we will study using accurate vocabulary and language relating to cinematic methods and techniques. Just as an author uses literary devices to convey ideas in a story or novel, filmmakers use specific techniques to present their ideas on screen in the world of the film.

Here Are Patrick Bet-David's Picks for the Top 10 Movies for Entrepreneurs
Here are Patrick Bet-David’s picks for the top 10 movies for Entrepreneurs. You may also want to check out the video that this PDF is based on. Enjoy! If you ask my friends that go and watch movies with me, they’d tell you one thing. Sixty percent of the time, I walk out of the movie. I literally get up and walk out of the movie. I don’t know anyone that walks out of movies more than I do, because I don’t like to waste my time watching a movie without a point to it, and you can’t keep my attention if there’s no point. To me, watching a movie is like reading a book for two hours. Give me a message! Move me! Tap into my emotions! I want to FEEL it. I would never walk out on the movies that I talk about in this video. They are worth your time, and if you’re an entrepreneur, each of them has a message for you. 1 Page #10: The Social Network Many of you have probably watched The Social Network. It tells a very, very good story of Mark Zuckerberg who built Facebook, and what he went through when during that time. It demonstrates what you’re capable of building when you put your minds together with other like-minded people. But it also talks about the darker side. Listen here, to learn about some of those things. Another important thing to keep in mind as you watch this movie is that Zuckerberg wasn’t the visionary.

Syllabus Provides the Web Addresses
ETHN 189 , Wed 5-7:50, PCYNH 106 Jonathan Markovitz University of California, San Diego Office: Social Science Bldg 249 Winter, 2007 Office Hours: Tu 5:10-6:40; W 3:10-4:40 BLACK CINEMA Mainstream cinema has been one of the primary sites for the production and rearticulation of meanings of “blackness” since D.W. Griffith’s The Birth of a Nation (1915) and the dawn of the studio system. Griffith’s film consolidated and disseminated powerful racist myths to a national audience, helping to solidify white supremacy while providing ideological justification for lynching. While 1915 marks a low point in cinematic depictions of American race relations, much of the latter history of Hollywood film making is similarly problematic when it comes to representations of African Americans. There is, however, an alternative cinematic tradition that has only begun to receive the attention it is due. Just a few years after Birth, an African American film maker named Oscar Micheaux released Within Our Gates (1919), challenging the racism of Birth, and putting forward an alternative understanding of lynching and the brutality of white supremacy. In subsequent years and decades there has been a vibrant tradition of African American independent filmmaking. This course will examine that tradition, focusing on the work of filmmakers ranging from Micheaux to Gordon Parks to Spike Lee to Julie Dash. We will also venture briefly outside of the United States and address film making within the black diaspora. Throughout the course, we will focus on the social critiques posed by various black film makers, the relationships between mainstream and independent cinema, and the power of film as a social force.
