The film follows a team of laborers living a real-life version of fantasy football. By day they sweat to build the World Cup; by night they compete in a “workers welfare” football tournament, playing in the same stadiums that will one day host the world’s greatest players. We join one team of men from Nepal, India, Ghana, and Kenya whose only common ground is their love for football. Each match offers them a momentary escape from the homesickness and isolation they endure as the lowest class in the world’s richest country.

M. Hum. Humanities Department, Wright State University, 2016. The Feminine Sublime in 21st Century Surrealist Cinema. This thesis will examine how the characters in three contemporary surrealist films, Mulholland Dr. (2001), Under the Skin (2013), and Melancholia (2011), experience the sublime. In each film, the female characters are marked by the “otherness” of femininity along with the consequential philosophical and social alienation due to their marginalized roles within the patriarchal structure. Their confrontations with the otherness of sublimity are disparate from their male counterparts, whose experiences are not complicated by patriarchal oppression. The sublimity the characters are faced with forces them to recognize their subjugated social positioning.

    INTRODUCTION Quentin Tarantino is a writer and director of films widely known for his nonlinear storylines, pert dialogue, excessive violence, and 60s and 70s era music scores. Tarantino has an impressive knowledge of television, movies, and film history and deeply admires exploitation films, Hong Kong action cinema and Spaghetti Westerns. His films often duplicate and incorporate the themes, style and music of a wide assortment of film genres. Tarantino got his start in film while employed as a video store clerk. In 1987, he wrote the script for True Romance and sold it in 1992, followed by the sale of another script entitled Natural Born Killers. This eventually led to Reservoir Dogs (1992), the first film he wrote and directed, followed by Pulp Fiction (1994), Jackie Brown (1997), Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003), and Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004). In all of the films written and directed by Tarantino, the soundtrack music plays an integral role. As he states, “The thing I’m coming from is listening to music to be the guide to a movie” (Miklitsch, 289). The music he uses as his guide shares several common characteristics: “It is old and it is referential to distinct musical, film or media genres” (Garner, 192). Tarantino uses this music to connect his audience to the physical and emotional sensations of the characters in his films. If the audience is connected, then they will understand the emotions associated with the character or be intrigued by the juxtaposition of the aural and visual elements in the scene. Therefore, as Frith generally states, music “becomes our teacher, making sure we got the film’s emotional message” (79).

M.A. November 2004. Film Ton & Traum: A Critical Analysis Of The Use Of Sound Effects And Music In Contemporary Narrative Film (87 pp.) Director of Master of Arts Thesis: Ruth Bradley We often talk about the mysterious Magic of the Movies, the unique ability of the filmic medium to take the audience into another world, another era, even another galaxy. We also talk about film’s unique ability to record life as it happens and to document what is going on in our world, be it right where we live or at the most remote place on Earth. But whenever we look at film as an art form, most of us tend to exclusively credit the visual component of the film, i.e. cinematography, topped off with the occasional thought on editing. The sonic component of film, however, is unjustly ignored most of the time. Sure, we know the name Hans Zimmer from Gladiator or Danny Elfman from Batman and most recently Spider-Man 2, but how many of us know who recorded the location sound on Master and Commander? The goal of Ton & Traum is to give the film-soundtrack the credit it deserves.
  • G:\Pocket Hymn Book (1787)

    G:\Pocket Hymn Book (1787)

    Modernized text Pocket Hymn Book (1787)1 [Baker List, #444] Editorial Introduction: In 1780 John Wesley issued A Collection of Hymns for the People Called Methodists. This was the largest collection that he ever published (with 525 hymns), and Wesley clearly desired that it would become the standard text of his Methodist people for private use and in their society gatherings.2 One major obstacle stood in the way of this desire—the cost of the volume, at 4 shillings. It was in part because many of his people could not afford this cost that Wesley continued to reprint Select Hymns (1765), with editions in 1780, 1783, and 1787, which was less than a third the length of the 1780 Collection, and sold for 1 shilling, six pence. But Select Hymns did not mirror well the content of the 1780 Collection, lacking even such Methodist favourites as “O for a Thousand Tongues.” This created an opportunity for Robert Spence, a bookseller with Methodist connections in York , to offer another solution. In 1781 he published an abridgement of Wesley’s 1780 Collection, reducing it by two-thirds (to 174 hymns), while retaining the most popular hymns among Methodists.3 Spence took this step without approval, and drew Wesley’s displeasure.4 But since he was not an itinerant preacher, Spence was not accountable to injunctions by Conference against publishing materials without Wesley’s approval.5 While his 1781 publication had limited success, Spence reframed it in 1783 in two ways that greatly increased its popularity. First, he added about fifty hymns by other authors popular in evangelical circles.
