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.

CALIFORNIA: THE LAND OF BROKEN DREAMS By Laura Smith, McAnulty College of Liberal Arts Instructor: Michael Begnal The well-renowned dream of moving to California and making it big in Hollywood is a classic Ameri- can dream. However, this dream is not all it seems. In fact, the Hollywood dream can be destructive, illusory, and unattainable. Hollywood is capable of changing people, and not necessarily for the better. In the novel The Day of the Locust and the filmThe Player, Nathanael West and Robert Altman respectively focus on the falsehood of the Hollywood dream. West characterizes Faye, Homer, and Harry as desperate for the seemingly promising lifestyle Hollywood supposedly offers in order to suggest that the Hollywood dream is impossible to achieve, while Altman develops the character of Griffin Mill by employing an eye- level camera angle to characterize him as a shallow producer who gets away with murder, utilizes framing in order to characterize Tom Oakley as an aspiring writer/director who succumbs to the pressures of Hol- lywood, and cohesively employs character placement and camera distance to characterize Bonnie Sherow as an underestimated woman who represents what Hollywood truly has to offer, all to demonstrate that the Hollywood lifestyle is deceptive and has the ability to change hopefuls into phonies.

Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.

A mysterious criminal (Mullen Jr.) rolls into a small town planning to knock off the local bank, assuming it will go off without a hitch. But when he encounters a retired poetry professor (Sutherland), his plans take an unlikely turn. With no place to stay, the professor generously welcomes him into his home. As the two men talk, a bond forms between these two polar opposites, and surprising moments of humor and compassion emerge. As they begin to understand each other more, they each examine the choices they’ve made in their lives, secretly longing to live the type of lifestyle the other man has lived, based on the desire to escape their own.

It is named after American author H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937). Lovecraftian horror 2 Origin Lovecraft refined this style of storytelling into his own mythos that involved a set of supernatural, pre-human, and extraterrestrial elements. His work was inspired by and similar to previous authors such as Edgar Allan Poe, Algernon Blackwood and Lord Dunsany The hallmark of Lovecraft's work is cosmicism: the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person. Lovecraft's work is also steeped in the insular feel of rural New England, and much of the genre continues to maintain this sense that "that which man was not meant to know" might be closer to the surface of ordinary life outside of the crowded cities of modern civilization. However, Lovecraftian horror is not restricted to the countryside; "The Horror at Red Hook", for instance, is set in a crowded ethnic ghetto. Themes of Lovecraftian horror Several themes found in Lovecraft's writings are considered to be components of a "Lovecraftian" work: • Anti-anthropocentrism, misanthropy in general.
