Analyzing a Movie

Cinematography is the technique and art of making shift pictures, which are a sequence of images of a lone subject that are taken over time and then projected in the same sequence to conceive an illusion of motion (Yearwood, 2007). Each image of a moving object is somewhat distinct from the preceding one. Projector Motion-picture projector projects the sequence of picture frames contained on a ribbon of film, in their proper order.

An unfastening in the plate reveals the movie frame only after the movie has been positioned and has arrive to rest. The plate itself extends to rotate smoothly. Photographic materials should be manufactured with large precision. The perforations, or holes in the movie, must be precisely positioned. The pitch--the distance from one hole to another--must be maintained by correct film storage (Howard, 2006). By the late 1920s, a sound-on-film system of synchronous SOUND RECORDING was evolved and profited prevalent popularity. In this process, the sound is noted separately on a machine synchronized with the image camera. Unlike the picture portion of the film, the sound portion is recorded and played back continuously rather than in intermittent motion (Guerrero, 2006).

Although revising still makes use of perforated movie for flexibility, a more up to date technique uses conventional magnetic strip for original notes and synchronizes the notes to the picture electronically (see strip RECORDER). If the number of photographs projected per unit time (frame rate) disagrees from the number made per unit time by the camera, an clear-cut racing up or slowing down down of the normal rate is created. Changes in the frame rates are used rarely for comic effect or shift analysis.

The theme of the film

A surprisingly sympathetic account of the life of Richard Nixon from Oliver Stone, Anthony Hopkins stars as Nixon. In a chronological order, the film traces Nixon's life with his strict Quaker upbringing, through his rise in the Republican Party, his wound lesions in the early 1960's, and, finally, the triumph of the presidency and the disgrace of Watergate. View Nixon as a tragic figure, Stone finds the answer to man's debilitating flaws in the hobbling insecurities due to his rigid youth (www.celebritywonder.com).

The film is more than a story about Nixon. These are the events that occurred before, during and after the Nixon administration. Regardless of whether this is good or bad, in many ways, the U.S. is moving in the direction of significantly changed during this period. But it would be silly to think about how Nixon man (only) responsible for this. One hallmark of Nixon is peculiarly portrayed in the movie that he had deliberately used the system to disrupt the performance of the power of the people, and while it almost guarantees that Congress did not like that, unfortunately, he "got caught". Stone makes the work to bring these points.

Stone's vision is seen throughout the film in subtle ways: Presidents (and other) candidates come and go, but red tape ...
