Movie Connections Psych Films Movie Connections Psych Films Extra Credit Library Thursday, September 23, 2010 I Am Sam Genre: Drama Year: 2001 Rating: PG-13 Actors: Sean Penn, Michelle Pfeiffer, Dakota Fanning Topics: Mental Retardation, Forensic, Family Dysfunction Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapters 1, 2, and 6. Connection: Sean Penn portrays a man with mental retardation fighting for custody of his 7-year-old child. Sam's group of friends are entertaining - two are truly developmentally disabled - his close neighbor is agoraphobic. His lawyer is the stereotypical overworked yuppie professional woman, estranged from her family. The film is a classic tearjerker. Despite significant research for the film (watch the supplemental documentary), how realistic were the events? Did he take her to a pediatrician? Did the pediatrician have any concerns about his care? Was that a realistic portrayal of cross-examination of an expert witness? Could Sam really have afforded the apartment at the end in Los Angeles, making somewhere around $8/hour? What really was in the best interest of the child? Was the opposing attorney all that wrong? Many things to consider. Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Minority Report Genre: Thriller Year: 2002 Rating: PG13 Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 8. Connection: 1. Precognition is the ability to foretell events. How has the ability to see the future changed Washington D.C.? Why does it only show certain situations? 2. Many people are convinced that ESP exists because of an intense personal experience. In “Minority Report” what is attributed to their ability to foretell the future? 3. With precognition your life appears to be mapped out. How did the movie refute this belief? Extra Credit Points 15 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Finding Nemo Genre: Animation /Family Year: 2003 Rating: G Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 10. Give one example, other than 9/11 of a time you had a flashbulb Connection: 1. Document a scene where Dory is practicing Maintenance Rehearsal? 2. At one point on their journey, Dory is cautioned to go through a trench, not over it. Dory forgets this information, of course, but when they finally get to the trench she has the intuitive feeling that they should go through, not over. Marlin overrules her, and they encounter a school of jellyfish. Why would Dory be able to recall that material? 3. When Dory finally encounters Nemo, she has of course forgotten all about him. When she asks his name, he replies "Nemo", and she comments that "That's a nice name". Does this indicate short term or long term memory loss? Extra Credit Points 15 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Gothika (2003) 1) The purpose of watching the movie Gothika was to make a connection between the material covered in class and Hollywood, but the film also allows the material to become more meaningful. What is the benefit of making material more meaningful? (Ch. 10) 2) Why was Miranda Grey unable to recall the disturbing events that took place on the night her husband was murdered? Support Answer (Ch. 10) 3) Would Miranda Grey’s lawyer recommend her to take a Lie Detection Test? Support Answer (Ch. 12) 4) Were the torturing and killing by Doug Grey and Sheriff Ryan conducted with intrinsic or extrinsic motivation? Why do you believe so? (Ch. 12) 5) According to Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, what motivated Doug Grey and Sheriff Ryan to commit those horrifying crimes? Was it Fundamental, Psychological or Self Actualization? Explain your reasoning. (Ch. 12) 6) Is Miranda Grey motivated to find the real killers through intrinsic or extrinsic motivation? Why do you believe so? (Ch. 12) 7) Describe the three parts of the emotional state of fear. (Ch. 12) Extra Credit Points 14 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Frailty (2001) Chapter 10: Memory and Thought 1) The movie offers insight into the troubled past of the Meik family by recalling evidence through Fenton’s flashbacks. Fenton’s flashbacks represent what type of memory? Explain 2) As Fenton tells FBI Agent Doyle the story of slayings, Agent Doyle is skeptical of the facts presented. Agent Doyle refers to Fenton as “some crazy nut” and thinks some of his story is distorted and fictional. Agent Doyle’s belief that Fenton’s recollection was flawed is an example of what kind of problem in retrieving information? Explain 3) When Fenton tells his tragic and horrifying story, Agent Doyle becomes hesitant because of how long Fenton was able to keep this a secret. Fenton’s response was he wanted to block out these memories and forget. How can an individual simply brush aside such traumatic events? In Psychology, we refer to this as what? Be sure to go into detail. 4) The purpose of watching the movie Frailty was to make a connection between the material covered in class and Hollywood, but the film also allows the material to become more meaningful. What is the benefit of making material more meaningful? Chapter 12: Motivation and Emotion 5) The movie takes a disturbing twist, as the once loving family becomes religious fanatics set on a crusade to destroy “demons.” Fenton’s father and brother, Adam, swore to carry out this “divine” mission but Fenton refuses to participate in the killings. Incorporating Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, what motivated Fenton to avoid turning his family in (Fundamental, Psychological or Self- Actualization)? Be specific and explain in detail. 6) Adam and his father call themselves “God’s Hands” and our excited to take on this mission. If Adam and his father were “God’s Hands” abolishing demons, were they doing this more for extrinsic or intrinsic reasons? Explain why you feel this way. If Adam and his father were merely fanatic religious serial killers/freaks that went off the deep end, were they doing this more for extrinsic or intrinsic reasons? Explain why you feel this way. 7) We have a wide range of emotions, some that promote approach behavior and others that influence avoidance behavior. Name and describe some emotions you felt during the movie and indicate if they were positive or negative emotions (pg. 329) 8) Emotions are based on three parts: physical, cognitive and behavioral. Use one emotion you felt from the movie Frailty and explain each stage of the emotion. For example Happy- physical heart rate and breathing increased, behavioral outward expression of a smile, and cognitive describe the scene and how the situation causes the emotion. Extra Credit Points 16 Thursday, September 23, 2010 A Beautiful Mind Genre: Drama Year: 2001 Rating: PG-13 Actors: Russell Crowe, Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly Topics: Schizophrenia Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 16. Connection: Academy Award winner for Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress. Russell Crowe portrays Nash, a brilliant mathematician. There is a major plot twist - stop reading here if you don't want it spoiled…We learn that we are misled - situations and characters turn out to be portrayals of Nash's delusional thinking and hallucinations. We see him spiral downward in the throws of his psychotic thinking or the side effects of his medications. What do you think about the suggestion that he was able to self-challenge the reality of the hallucinations, as at the end of the movie? What do you with plenty more information missing from the Hollywood version… Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Matchstick Men Genre: Drama/Comedy Year: 2003 Rating: PG-13 Actors: Nicolas Cage, Sam Rockwell, Alison Lohman Topics: OCD, Treatment, Personality Disorder Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 16. Connection: Nicholas Cage as the con man with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Very entertaining film. Consider the accuracy of portrayal (was it "real" OCD or a conversion disorder, for example). What about the ethics of the treatment he experienced? Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 What About Bob? Genre: Comedy Year: 1991 Rating: PG-13 Actors: Richard Dreyfuss, Bill Murray, Julie Hagerty Topics: Treatment, Personality Disorder, Family Dysfunction Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 15 and 16. Connection: Cute movie with Richard Dreyfuss as the competent (or burned out?) psychotherapist and Bill Murray as the patient (who seems to have more insight...). Note the difference in perception of Bob between the therapist and his family. Has its flaws, but is a fun film. Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 As Good As It Gets Favorite Genre: Drama/Comedy Year: 1997 Rating: PG-13 Actors: Jack Nicholson, Greg Kinnear, Helen Hunt Topics: OCD, Personality Disorder Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 15 and 16. Connection: Academy Award winner for Best Actor and Best Actress. Jack Nicholson with Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder, as well as plenty of Axis II. Really great movie. Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Conspiracy Theory Genre: Drama Year: 1997 Rating: R Actors: Mel Gibson, Julia Roberts, Patrick Stewart Topics: Paranoia Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 15 and 16. Connection: Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts - good combo, but realistic movie? Mel is paranoid, conspiracies everywhere, but once in awhile, "just like a stopped clock," (wonderful analogy from Roger Ebert) he's right. There also is a government psychiatrist (are his treatments therapeutic?!). Diagnosis for Mel? [Suggested by Victoria Mellody, University of Arizona-Tucson] Extra Credit Points 10 Thursday, September 23, 2010 Copycat Genre: Drama Year: 1995 Rating: R Actors: Sigourney Weaver., Holly Hunter, Dermot Mulroney Topics: Anxiety Disorder, Forensic Write a synopsis using 10 terms from Chapter 16. Connection: Sigourney Weaver as an agoraphobic psychologist, oh, and there's a homicidal maniac in the movie.

  • See It Big! Action Features More Than 30 Action Movie Favorites on the Big
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘SEE IT BIG! ACTION’ FEATURES MORE THAN 30 ACTION MOVIE FAVORITES ON THE BIG SCREEN April 19–July 7, 2019 Astoria, New York, April 16, 2019—Museum of the Moving Image presents See It Big! Action, a major screening series featuring more than 30 action films, from April 19 through July 7, 2019. Programmed by Curator of Film Eric Hynes and Reverse Shot editors Jeff Reichert and Michael Koresky, the series opens with cinematic swashbucklers and continues with movies from around the world featuring white- knuckle chase sequences and thrilling stuntwork. It highlights work from some of the form's greatest practitioners, including John Woo, Michael Mann, Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa, Kathryn Bigelow, Jackie Chan, and much more. As the curators note, “In a sense, all movies are ’action’ movies; cinema is movement and light, after all. Since nearly the very beginning, spectacle and stunt work have been essential parts of the form. There is nothing quite like watching physical feats, pulse-pounding drama, and epic confrontations on a large screen alongside other astonished moviegoers. See It Big! Action offers up some of our favorites of the genre.” In all, 32 films will be shown, many of them in 35mm prints. Among the highlights are two classic Technicolor swashbucklers, Michael Curtiz’s The Adventures of Robin Hood and Jacques Tourneur’s Anne of the Indies (April 20); Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (April 21); back-to-back screenings of Mad Max: Fury Road and Aliens on Mother’s Day (May 12); all six Mission: Impossible films

  • Press Release 23/5/2018
    THE KARLOVY VARY FESTIVAL TO HONOR ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING DIRECTOR BARRY LEVINSON At this year’s Karlovy Vary festival, screenwriter-producer-director Barry Levinson, who won an Academy Award for Rain Man, will accept the Crystal Globe for Outstanding Artistic Contribution to World Cinema. The Karlovy Vary festival continues its tradition of recognizing the most important personalities of world cinema, the likes of which include directors William Friedkin, Jerry Schatzberg, and Ken Loach, and screenwriter Paul Laverty. In his writing and directing capacity, Academy Award winner and five-time nominee Barry Levinson deftly combines personal stories with an often satirical look at society, and his movies have fundamentally influenced numerous young filmmakers. Barry Levinson established himself as a writer of successful television shows. With his onetime wife, Valerie Curtin, he then wrote the movie script for Norman Jewison’s courtroom drama …and justice for all (1979), which brought them an Oscar nomination. He debuted as a director with the comedy-drama Diner (1982), receiving his second Oscar nomination for the script. Ivan Král, a Czech musician based in the US, co- wrote the film music. Subsequent titles confirmed his reputation with critics and audiences: The Natural (1984) with Robert Redford, Tin Men (1987) with Richard Dreyfuss and Danny DeVito, and Good Morning, Vietnam (1987) with Robin Williams. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the legendary picture Rain Man (1988), awarded four Oscars (e.g. Best Director for Barry Levinson) and numerous other honors, including the Golden Bear at the Berlinale and the David di Donatello for Best Foreign Film.

  • Reel Impact: Movies and TV at Changed History
    Reel Impact: Movies and TV Õat Changed History - "Õe China Syndrome" Screenwriters and lmmakers often impact society in ways never expected. Frank Deese explores the "The China Syndrome" - the lm that launched Hollywood's social activism - and the eect the lm had on the world's view of nuclear power plants. FRANK DEESE · SEP 24, 2020 Click to tweet this article to your friends and followers! As screenwriters, our work has the capability to reach millions, if not billions - and sometimes what we do actually shifts public opinion, shapes the decision-making of powerful leaders, perpetuates destructive myths, or unexpectedly enlightens the culture. It isn’t always “just entertainment.” Sometimes it’s history. Leo Szilard was irritated. Reading the newspaper in a London hotel on September 12, 1933, the great Hungarian physicist came across an article about a science conference he had not been invited to. Even more irritating was a section about Lord Ernest Rutherford – who famously fathered the “solar system” model of the atom – and his speech where he self-assuredly pronounced: “Anyone who expects a source of power from the transformation of these atoms is talking moonshine.” Stewing over the upper-class British arrogance, Szilard set o on a walk and set his mind to how Rutherford could be proven wrong – how energy might usefully be extracted from the atom. As he crossed the street at Southampton Row near the British Museum, he imagined that if a neutron particle were red at a heavy atomic nucleus, it would render the nucleus unstable, split it apart, release a lot of energy along with more neutrons shooting out to split more atomic nuclei releasing more and more energy and..

  • American International Pictures Retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art
    The Museum of Modern Art 50th Anniversary •JO NO. 47 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL PICTURES RETROSPECTIVE AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART The Department of Film of The Museum of Modern Art will present a retrospective exhibition of films from American International Pictures beginning July 26 and running through August 28, 1979. The 38 film retrospective, which coincides with the studio's 25th anniversary, was selected from the company's total production of more than 500 films, by Adrienne Mancia, Curator, and Larry Kardish, Associate Curator, of the Museum's Department of Film. The films, many in new 35mm prints, will be screened in the Museum's Roy and Niuta Titus Auditorium and, concurrent with the retro­ spective, a special installation of related film stills and posters will be on view in the adjacent Auditorium Gallery. "It's extraordinary to see how many filmmakers, writers and actors — now often referred to as 'the New Hollywood'—took their first creative steps at American International," commented Adrienne Mancia. "AIP was a good training ground; you had to work quickly and economically. Low budgets can force you to find fresh resources. There is a vitality and energy to these feisty films that capture a certain very American quality. I think these films are rich in information about our popular culture and we are delighted to have an opportunity to screen them."
