Arrival was a sci-fi Drama set in the present day and conveyed a message of community and communication we could all learn from. In the original screenplay Louise Banks was introduced as being charming and hopeful with a perspective on stories and where they begin and end. Throughout the completed film, Amy Adam’s portrayed Louise as more mellow. Louise seemed overly sad and lonely without reason. Granted, its conveyed that she is sad because her daughter died from a rare disease. But, about three quarters of the way through the film it’s discovered that Louise was seeing the future and not the past. In essence, her daughter hasn’t been born yet, so why is she so serious and brooding? In the screenplay, Louise’s “normal day” carried on several pages too long. The film effectively snipped the minutia away and added more meaningful, engaging events leading up to the “Arrival.” For example, the classroom scene was greatly reduced, and the film was still able to convey that aliens had landed and everyone was nervous about their intentions. It also allowed for time to focus more on Louise as a character. The film also incorporated other countries into the story. China was communicating with their aliens with a game. This is where the “offer weapon” storyline came in, so it wasn’t all …show more content…
This allowed time for the strongest tentpole of the screenplay, which is was when Ian discovered that the humans timeline wasn’t ending, it was just beginning depending on how you look at it. And also that, because they had been communicating with the aliens through a window, the words they had been receiving were backwards. The film also partially omitted Louis’s development of a more in depth relationship with the alines and just how completely she begins to understand their language and time line structure. It was included, but was less rewarding and
It’s apparent that Louise’s identity has changed from being a shy and isolated girl to someone that wants to have power.
The vision Christopher Nolan had for The Prestige (2006) was to add to the outbreak of street magician film, whilst playing a large dramatic subplot equal in grandeur to the magical performances within the film. In the final sequence of the film, I will analyse how the cinematography and sound resolves the plot so that it summarises the themes present in the film, whilst also invoking a response from the audience. Nolan predominantly uses close up shots, non-diegetic sound (music) and dialogue collaboratively to convey the dramatic, personal subplot of the characters and their relationships, whilst appealing to the audience bringing forth an emotional response from the audience. The heavy, slow, dramatic atmosphere of the ending sequence uses various techniques to summarise and uncover the underlying mysteries of the events throughout the film and consolidate themes introduced during the exposition.
Lets say Brently had died that day what was Louise going to do? Its not like she can get a job and take care of her self and theirs two reasons why. One! She was a woman and they didn’t have any rights in those times. Black men were able to vote first than white women. That tells you a lot of how things were back then. The second reason is Louise had a heart condition and one had to be very careful with her. So I guessing she couldn’t do any hard labor or be stress. That’s why I don’t understand her. It might because I am male and I cant really see it from a female point of view. Maybe that’s why I can’t really see why Louise is full of joy because of her husband death. Also another thing I wonder was if she had heart attack because she was happy or sad that Brently was alive? I also wonder if Kate wrote this because she was going through personally?
Louise’s illusions all have a beginning stage. One of these delusions is the fact that she views the world in a superficial perspective, only connection self worth to beauty. An example of this, is seen when she is given the symbolic representation of a prostitute when she marries her first husband, seducing him with her charm and beauty. This provides background information about her character, stating that this superficial view has been a part of her since a young age. This twisted perspective also feeds into her other misconception, which is that her son, Patrice, must be intelligent because of his beautifully sculpted face and body, but, is in fact dumb. In the quote “Louise did not question the intelligence of her ten-year-old Adonis. He spoke very little, but she attributed this speechlessness, like the silence of the gods, to
The Alien is a science fiction horror movie. Its setting in space and the presence of technology and artificial intelligence empathizes on its science fiction genre. Moreover, the presence of the Alien and the fact that it is a threat to human lives reflects it is also a horror film. The movie revolves around seven human beings that have the mission to return to earth from the space.
Louise could see into the future when she figured out the heptapod language. She knew that her daughter, Hannah, was going to die regardless of whatever she could do to stop it. Louise also knew that she could never have a child, but she still chooses to. She chose to have a child and knew that it would suffer from a certain illness, but would rather take on that situation than live her whole life knowing that her child was going to die. This teaches viewers to appreciate the what they have in life because nothing lasts forever, but the memories that are made will.
This newfound freedom is in effect a new motivation for Louise. Before experiencing such freedom, Louise was petrified of the thought of life being long; now however, she felt herself wishing, even praying for life to be long. This is evidenced with the following quote, "She breathed a quick prayer that life might be long. It was only yesterday she had thought with a shudder that life might be long." (15). This depicts an ever embracing Louise, finally liberated of the powerful institution of marriage. What is more, this quote serves to further support the idea that Louise indeed felt trapped, she was unhappy and yet, the thought of her husband dying hadn't crossed her mind, only the relief from her own passing was her wish.
In Thelma and Louise, the gender roles are not what you’d normally expect. This can be seen in how Louise is
The cinematic film Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele, presents a scenario in which African Americans are targeted by white people mainly for their physical advantages. The plot follows Chris Washington, a professional African American photographer who goes away for the weekend to visit his white girlfriend’s family. Chris’ best friend, Rod Williams, is a TSA agent who is concerned about Chris going to a white family’s estate. Throughout the movie, Chris discusses to Rod the strange events that occur in the Armitage house. Get out displays how two people use their intelligence and ability to identify social cues to escape from an arduous situation.
I just accepted Louise's reaction to her husband's death, when the most unexpected happens; her husband is actually alive and he enters the room shocking everyone, and Louise especially, as she is shocked to death. The doctors say she died of joy, when the reader knows that she actually died because she had a drams of freedom and could not go back to living under her husband's will again. Then her dreams were shattered yet again due to this terrible man.
The beginning of the story sets the theme for the whole story. We are told about the heart condition that inflicts Louise. This is significant throughout the story. The heart condition is a symbolic way of describing her thoughts of oppression she felt about her marriage. She was trapped and isolated by the marriage. She felt the need to hide these feelings. Women of her era were supposed to be home and under their husbands command. The story has her going through this journey privately. That is significant in the fact that now in her husband’s passing, she will be alone. She will need to work through things by herself. She will be able to go through the whole process on her own, without being judged and persuaded to feel differently.
The protagonists and social conflicts in the film The Visitor presented living experience to explore that are different to my personal history. The four actors in the film are all unique from one another, but they possess a universal understanding and awareness that are not different from the life that I know. Walter Vale is a single white male, a widowed and a father who is at the end of his professional career as an academic professor. Walter adult son lives in London and he pretends to be happy with his work, but the truth is he felt unsatisfied, this was expressed at the end of the film. You also saw in the beginning of the movie Walter also didn’t enjoy his piano lessons he took from an elderly woman. Walter found meaning in life the
I think that Louise's condition is both a blessing and a curse. She is able to recall memories from years ago, but not all of her memories can be useful. Louise's amazing memory can be helpful for tests, important dates, and life events that she will always want to remember. There are also memories
When twelve complex space apparatus show up around the world, etymology teacher Louise banks is tasked for translating the dialect of the evident outsider guests.

Louise’s role in the movie is to understand aliens language and communicate with them while Ian is hired to discover scientific aspects of the issue.
