As film critic after film critic stumbled over Screenwriter’s Monthly can be found themselves to call his performance everything from "original" to at the following fine locations: "eccentric," they forgot one thing: the screenwriters, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, who did one heck of a job creating Sparrow on paper first. Sure, some critics mentioned the writers when they declared the film "cliché" and attacked it.

  • A Film Analysis: Seabiscuit: an American Legend

    A Film Analysis: Seabiscuit: an American Legend

    Suzanne Gehring Film and Culture 1010 Marty Nabham November 24, 2008 A Film Analysis: Seabiscuit: An American Legend “If your dream was big enough and you had the guts to follow it, there was truly a fortune to be made.” - David McCullough Through literal and symbolic representation, the film Seabiscuit portrays an ongoing theme of hope in times of struggle. The movie is time-specific to the Great Depression and is a story of a few broken-down people and an equally broken-down horse who join forces in order to overcome the odds with hope. On a wider scope, such hope is symbolic of a hope that Americans searched for in order to survive during a pivotal time of devastation. The film uniquely represents the events of the era through a documentary style which consistently is in direct correlation with the main storyline throughout the movie. Specific examples of devastation on a smaller scope in the film include Charles Howard‟s (played by Jeff Bridges) loss of family through the death of his son; Red Pollard‟s (played by Tobey Maguire) suggested abandonment by his family and, later, his injury while riding; Seabiscuit‟s injury while racing, all of which are representations of overcoming the odds through hope as each of these situations are resolved. Throughout each situation, the existence of hope is suggested through the unlikely relationships between each of these characters. Specifically, the character of Tom Smith (played by Chris Cooper) is suggested to be the „glue‟ which holds each of these relationships together, as he is, in a way, the person to form each relationship.

    Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action Before the U.S

    Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Commerce and Consumer Protection H.R. 1754, "The Horseracing Integrity Act" January 28, 2020 On behalf of Animal Wellness Action, one of the nation's leading animal protection organizations on Capitol Hill, I submit this testimony in support of H.R. 1754, the Horseracing Integrity Act. I express my sincere thanks to Chair Jan Schakowsky and Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers for conducting this hearing and offer special thanks to Representatives Paul Tonko, and, Andy Barr for introducing this reform effort. I also express thanks to Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Frank Pallone and Ranking Member Greg Walden for their participation in this process. This hearing builds on the testimony and other information gathered during the 2018 hearing conducted before the Subcommittee on H.R. 2651 in the 115th Congress. I first want to underscore that Animal Wellness Action does not oppose horseracing. We join with many horse owners, breeders, trainers, and racing enthusiasts in speaking out on the broader topic of the protection of horses within the American horseracing industry and across the greater equine world. We seek to promote the proper stewardship of horses at every stage of their lives, including during their racing careers. We are deeply concerned about on- and off- track risks to the horses, including catastrophic injuries sustained during racing. America was built on the backs of horses, and they have always played a central role in the economy and culture of the United States. We owe them a debt of gratitude, and the very least we must do is ensure their safety, welfare, and protection.
