    36 MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2014 LIFESTYLE Gossip Jessica Alba is a prude essica Alba admits she is still a “real prude.” The ‘Sin City: A Dame To Kill For’ actress - who Jreprises her role as stripper Nancy Callahan in the sequel - insists that, despite being cast in a number of sexy roles, she is nothing like her characters in real life. She said: “The key word is play - everyone who knows me well knows that I’m a real prude. But a good director can make a scene look sexy without me taking off my top.” The 33-year-old actress - who has children Honor, six, and Haven, two, with husband Cash Warren - also insists she isn’t perfect and finds it a challenge to juggle her busy career and motherhood but thinks it is important to be a good role model for her daughters by doing both. She added in an interview with America’s OK! magazine: “I’m very lucky I have a lot of help. As women, we have to accept that we can’t do it all. It’s important to show our daughters that there’s more to each of us than just being a mother.” Pattinson had limited Rover diet obert Pattinson lived on a diet of bread and barbecue sauce while filming ‘The Rover’.

  • Film I Strip Kao Srodni Mediji
    Filozofski fakultet u Zagrebu, Ivana Lučića 3 Odsjek za komparativnu književnost Mentor: dr. sc. Nikica Gilić Student: Martina Gulin Diplomski rad Film i strip kao srodni mediji U Zagrebu, 16.rujna, 2013. Uvod Pri usporedbi filma i stripa, „kadar“ je vjerojatno najuočljivija sličnost. No ova dva medija srodna su na više razina – teoretskoj, žanrovskoj, estetskoj, strukturalnoj, poetskoj, filozofskoj... I dok je o filmu napisano nebrojeno knjiga – analiza, kritika i teorijskih tekstova, stripu se sve do nedavno malo tko posvetio na znanstvenoj razini. Možda jer se strip u književno-teoretskom svijetu dugo smatrao djetinjastim i neozbiljnim (čak i kičem masovnih medija), ma koliko neka priča bila originalna, crtež pedantan, radnja „pitka“ a likovi razrađeni. Razvoju teorije stripa uvelike su pogodovale pop-kultura te suvremena estetika. Ovaj rad bavit će se sličnostima, povezanostima i razlikama između stripa i filma (igranog i animiranog) kao srodnih medija. Na idućim stranicama doznat ćemo kako se strip razvijao kroz povijest, tko su bili prvi (nesuđeni) autori stripa, kada je strip postao popularan medij kakvog danas volimo i poznajemo, koje su osnovne strukturalne poveznice između stripa i filma, a koje su malo suptilnije; žanrovi u oba medija, zvuk i boja u filmu i stripu, što je sve film „pokupio“ od stripa, a strip od filma, postoji li „autorski“ kadar u stripu ako je sve djelo jednog čovjeka, koja je najbolja filmska adaptacija nekog stripa i zašto, te na koncu - da li uopće postoji kvalitetna stripovska adaptacija nekog filma. Također ćemo se pozabaviti paralelnom analizom nekolicine odabranih stripova i njihovih filmskih, odnosno, animiranih inačica. Literatura koja je korištena pri pisanju ovog rada uključuje dvije knjige strip autora i teoretičara Scotta McClouda, knjige i tekstove Ranka Munitića, Darka Macana,Vere Horvat- Pintarić i Branka Belana, te niz drugih izvora.

In a town where justice doesn't prevail, the desperate want vengeance and ruthless murderers find themselves with vigilantes on their heels. Their paths cross in Sin City’s famous Kadie's Club Pecos. The film opens with fan-favorite “Just Another Saturday Night,” when Marv (Mickey Rourke) finds himself in the center of carnage as he tries to remember the preceding events. “The Long, Bad Night” tells the tale of Johnny, a cocky young gambler (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) taking his chances with the biggest villain in Sin City, Senator Roark (Powers Boothe). The central story, Miller’s acclaimed "A Dame To Kill For," features Dwight McCarthy (Josh Brolin) in his final confrontation with the woman of his dreams and nightmares, Ava Lord (Eva Green). “Nancy’s Last Dance" follows Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba) in the wake of John Hartigan’s (Bruce Willis) selfless suicide.

Breaking new ground, the movie was filmed entirely on green screen and brought Miller’s black and white graphic novels to life.

  • Frank Miller's Sin City
    WHEN MACHO ANGST TURNS INTO VIOLENCE: FRANK MILLER'S SIN CITY NATALIA MARTÍNEZ MARTÍNEZ UNED Frank Miller is a legend in the comic industry, in fact many of his graphic novels have been praised by the critics. He draws himself many of his comic books and he has even directed two movies adapting his Sin City series, composed by the comic books that will be discussed in this article. All these reasons make him a complete and extraordi- nary artist. Miller, as a pioneer of the comics aimed at an adult public, overtly displays sex, more blood, and more violence in his works than it was ever conceivable in the graphic novel world. Part of that violence depicted in his comics is directed against women, as in the case of the Sin City series. In an article called “Violence Against Women” published in the WHO’s webpage, The United Nations define gender violence as “any act of gender-based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual, or mental harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life” (“Violence Against Women” 2017). Un- fortunately, this is a situation suffered by many women in the world every day. The American psychologist Lenore E. Walker affirmed that “the single most powerful risk marker for becoming a victim of violence is to be a woman.” (1999, 23) This is a very revealing and powerful statement; according to Walker, a woman, just because of her gender, has more chances to become a victim of violence than any man.
