 In this project ,I wanted to express my view on the message from the film. In my film review I described that the boys should think about the fact that they can't sleep with drunk girls and it's bad to force them to do something that they would not do in a sober state. And also I state that society should not support men if they did wrong.  This may seem like a feminist controversy. I think that many people do not think about that soft compulsion which is discussed here. But in reality, Cassie is not presented in this film review as opposing only men, she also accuses the woman dean of the university for inaction, who did nothing to punish the bad boy.And also many other witnesses of the crime who turned a blind eye to the rape of the girl. Technically, I was happy with the outcome. It was a simple project, I used Lucidpress platform to create a film review that looks beautiful with the film's photos. To post the film review on the Wix website, I used a flipbook, which is

 In this post I will research narrative, mise-en-scene, cinematography, lighting, camera angles/shot, edited in film 'Promising Young Woman'.                                                          Promising Young Woman (2020) The narrative in this movie tells us about young woman haunted by a traumatic past as she navigates balancing forgiveness and vengeance.The narrative shows, they are both psychological dramas with a strong female lead and both use lighting to bring out the psychology of the film. Mise en scene take a plase in Cassie's parents house, where she still lives,and in romantic scene in the pharmacy neon heightens the narrative in select environments. An experiment with colors was carried out. For example , at the Blue Star bar, a neon bright colors were used, and harsher lighting to show that the film was changing gear. In the cafe was more blue tones, emphasized by warm soft lights to show vivid state of mind of the main character. 'The shots became mo

 In this post I will look at other reviews of the film 'Promising Young Woman' and explain the angle I will take and what I will concentrate on in my review.                                                         'Promising Young Woman'(2020) I looked at the film review made by Peter Bradshaw in The Guardian news website and he wrote about this film purely from a man position  - 'Carey Mulligan is at her ice-cold best as a sceming sociopath in this fearless unpicking of entitlement and victimhood. This playfully provocative and ingenious rape-revenge satire is about a society that thinks what a shame it would be if the career of a promising young man were ruined over some alleged incident in which both parties were probably drunk.'(Bradshaw,2021) Another example of a film review by Brian Tallerico shows that the author has extensive experience in writing reviews and compares scenes from other films: - 'Promising Young Woman' is a tonal roller coaster,bu

 Here I will look at a film reviewer Roger Ebert and his work and discuss how he used language and who is his target audience.                                                              Roger Ebert (1942-2013) Roger Ebert has been one of the best in American film critic history. He worked as a film critic for Chicago Sun-Times from 1967 until his death in 2013.When he was appointed as a film critic he did not take any course in film, he studied independently from books. 'One of the gifts a movie lover can give another is the title of a wonderful film they have not yet discovered' ( Roger Ebert) Also he was teaching a film class in the University of Chicago's Fine Arts program. One of the reasons he started teaching was to teach himself. One friend  give him a good advice: 'Just pause the film and think about what you see. You should to try it with your film class'.He did. The results were amazing. Basic rules: Anyone can shout 'stop' and discuss what they

 The software that I will use to present my project work called Flipbook . Here I will show how to create flipbook and how to upload it to the  Wix website. I chose the magazine template from a variety of templates ... The first step that I need to take is to prepare pages with a film review on the Lucidpress platform and save them in PDF format. First , I made a title page, this was done by pressing the buttons Images and Text from toolbar menu as well as all subsequent pages. I have adjusted the dimensions of the images and the text so that they are coherently combined.  I saved 3 pages at a time, otherwise the limit was exceeded, and I have to pay for this,which I would not want. Therefore, I got 3 PDF files, each with 3 pages. Then I went to the Flipsnack website using my google account and through Upload PDF button I downloaded these files.It turned out wonderful flipbook. Then I copied embed code... and used embedded link on my website to present the flipbook here like this... A
