He will reprise his role of 'Owen Grady’ in the 2nd installment of Jurassic World- set for a 2018 debut. 2015 also marked the end of seventh and final season of Emmy- nominated series Parks & Recreation for which Pratt is perhaps best known for portraying the character, ‘Andy Dwyer’ opposite Amy Poehler, Nick Offerman, Aziz Ansari, and Adam Scott. 2014 was truly the year of Chris Pratt.

In the past, stereotypes of African Americans were used for influencing views of whites on them and creating notions about them in order to manifest their inferiority. Film employed these stereotypes of African Americans and played an important role in the process of popularization of the stereotypes. As a visual medium, film brings the stereotypes to life, providing them with real shapes and real faces of African American actors and actresses, which contributes to the intensification of the belief that stereotypical portrayals on the big screens are based on truthful representations of real people with real life experience and stories.

  • APPENDIX Lesson 1.: Introduction
    APPENDIX Lesson 1.: Introduction The Academy Awards, informally known as The Oscars, are a set of awards given annually for excellence of cinematic achievements. The Oscar statuette is officially named the Academy Award of Merit and is one of nine types of Academy Awards. Organized and overseen by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS),http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award - cite_note-1 the awards are given each year at a formal ceremony. The AMPAS was originally conceived by Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer studio executive Louis B. Mayer as a professional honorary organization to help improve the film industry’s image and help mediate labor disputes. The awards themselves were later initiated by the Academy as awards "of merit for distinctive achievement" in the industry. The awards were first given in 1929 at a ceremony created for the awards, at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood. Over the years that the award has been given, the categories presented have changed; currently Oscars are given in more than a dozen categories, and include films of various types. As one of the most prominent award ceremonies in the world, the Academy Awards ceremony is televised live in more than 100 countries annually. It is also the oldest award ceremony in the media; its equivalents, the Grammy Awards (for music), the Emmy Awards (for television), and the Tony Awards (for theater), are modeled after the Academy Awards. The 85th Academy Awards were held on February 24, 2013 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award Time of downloading: 10th January, 2013.

  • Timesup for Sexual Harassment
    #TimesUp for Sexual Harassment By News Correspondents Syna and Naila Celebrities worldwide have been supporting the #TimesUp campaign. #TimesUp is a campaign founded on the 1st of January 2018, by a small group of Hollywood celebrities. It is a movement fighting sexual harassment in the workplace. #TimesUp started in response to the #MeToo campaign that came from the Harvey Weinstein sexual harassment epidemic. However, it was also brought up by a letter published in the Times in November 2017 from the Alianza Nacional de Campesinas. The letter claimed of their experience of sexual harassment among female farmworkers. It is said to have been written on behalf of 700,000 of them in the US. Harvey Weinstein, 65, has been accused of sexual harassment in the industry. According to the BBC more than 50 women have accused Weinstein ranging from rape to sexual harassment. Some of these women are: Lupita Nyong’o and Cara Delevingne, who both claimed that Weinstein made them feel uncomfortable. Despite all of the allegations Harvey Weinstein still continues to deny any of the actions. People have been standing up to this in many different ways. Celebrities have been doing this in award shows and events and the public, through protesting. In the Oscars, Golden Globes and the BAFTAs, actors and actresses have been wearing black in support of the victims of sexual harassment. In addition, vocal artists supported the cause at The Brit Awards and The Grammys by carrying a white rose. Mariah Carey, America Ferrera, Natalie Portman, Emma Stone and former tennis player Billie Jean King Dua Lipa showing her support by arrive in black at the 75th Annual holding a white rose at the Brit Awards Golden Globe Awards 2018.

  • Birdman: Reality Takes Flight
    Serpa examines how the film Birdman blurs the line between fact and fic - tion, forcing its viewers to question their certainty about what is real. Her review highlights several conventions of this genre, crafting vivid represen - tations of pivotal scenes and drawing on outside research to inform her analysis. (Instructor: Beth Machlan) BIRDMAN: REALITY TAKES FLIGHT Gabriela Serpa iggan Thomson is standing on the ledge of a New York City building! His expression is unsettling, his eyes trance-like, unwavering. His body takes up the whole screen as the audience in the movie theater watches him Rskeptically, chewing on their popcorn a little more slowly, leaning a little farther out of their seats with curiosity. Will he jump? While street horns blare and onlookers yell in what appears to be the normal soundscape of New York City, we see a tremor begin in Riggan’s jaw. We don’t know what’s happening. Neither the on- nor off-screen audiences of the spectacle know what to expect. A bodiless voice in the movie asks: “Hey, is this for real or are you shooting a film?” (Birdman ). “A film!” answers Riggan, but we aren’t convinced. After an hour and a half of sitting through Alejandro Iñárritu’s 2014 movie Birdman , the question of “is this for real or are you shooting a film?” doesn’t come as a shock. Instead, it vocalizes the central problem invoked by the film itself: what is real, and what is fiction? Michael Keaton plays Riggan Thomson, a washed-out celebrity made famous by his blockbuster role as the superhero Birdman.
