Appreciating CinemaPart One:Categorization of genresGenreSocial DramaRomanceGangsterWar filmScience fictionFantasyWesternDisasterCrimeEpicActionMusical_____________________________________________________________________ BlockbusterFilm noirComedy intended togeneratelaughterHorror intended to horrifyThriller intended to thrillPart Two: The basic storiesThere are a limited number of stories that form the basis for all fictional narratives.·Achilles Example: Superman·Candide Example:ForrestGump·Cinderella Example:Pretty Woman·Circe Example:FatalAttraction·Faust Example:Wall Street·Orpheus Example: Born on the Fourth of July·Romeo and Juliet Example: Shakespeare in Love, Ghost ·Tristan The Graduate·The Wandering Jew Example: The English PatientPart Three:The Classic Three-Act Linear Structure(经典三幕式直线结构)The majority of Hollywood films employs the classic three-act linear structure(or a variation of it). The three-act structure implies that the film can be divided into three acts.Act 1 would normally be expected to occupy the first quarter of the film; Act 2 would occupy the next half; and Act 3 would occupy the final quarter.Each act has a different function. For a typical two—hour Hollywood film, the act divisions would be as follows.Act Time FunctionAct 1 0-30 minutes set-upAct 2 30-90 minutes development (conflictandconfrontation) Act 3 90-120 minutes resolution and denouncement(结局)Part Four: Alternative Narrative Structures·Episodic Structure章回式结构Episodic narratives follow the protagonist through a series of potentially unrelated adventures. As in thethree-act structure, there are definite turning points at which the fortunes of the protagonist turn from good to bad or vice versa; however, unlike the three-act structure, the number of such turning points is not limited. ·Hero’s Journey Structure英雄旅程结构The hero’s journey narrative forms the underlying narrative structure of many myths and legends; and it is also to be found in many successful Hollywood films. The narrative occurs in a number of stages, which can be simplified as follows:1.Call to adventure2.Journey through unfamiliar World3.Supreme ordeal4.Reward5.Return and reintegration into societyPart Five: SubplotMost Hollywood films have one or more subplots. Subplots are additional stories(secondary plots) that are linked to the main plot and have an influence upon it;they don’t require separate protagonists, but they do require separate actions.The relationship between the main plot and the subplotscan take any one of four forms. These are: ·Complementary·Contradictory·Setup·ComplicatingPart Six: Symbols and MotifsA symbol is something that stands for or suggests something else, usually on account of a relationship, association, convention or resemblance. A motif is a recurring feature or idea related to the theme of the film; frequently it will be a recurring symbol.Question:Symbols may have different meanings in China and the West. List some of the differencesDifferent symbolic values of colors, animals, and number symbols used in the Western cultural tradition alongside their possible meanings and their different symbolic values in the Chinese cultural tradition.Symbol Meaning in the West Meaning in ChinaRed anger, sexuality, passion good fortune, happiness,prosperityWhite purity deathGreen envy, inexperience;the peace; the environment environmentYellow royal power and authorityOwl wisdom bad luckLion majesty, strength, braveryDragon evil majesty, success,goodfortunePhoenix rebirth, resurrection good fortune,precious Turtle slowness longevityPeacock arrogance, vanity good fortune3the Trinity( God, Christ, the Holy Ghost)13Bad luck666 the Devil good luck8 wealth4 deathPartSeven: Identifying ThemeIn practical terms, how does one identify and interpret the theme of the film? Since theme is a complicated and variable phenomenonand can be expressed in so many forms, it isimpossible to give a step-by-step guide. However, it is still possible to outline some basic approaches:·The Title of the FilmFilms will commonly use titles to point out their themes. ·Names of CharactersScriptwriters may use the names of their characters to suggest both something about the characters themselves, and also something about the overall theme of the film. ·SymbolismSymbols, motifs, and symbolic settings may indicate the theme of the film.·Character ConflictThe theme may emerge from the conflict between characters, especially when the characters are representative of deeper values and attitudes.·Speeches and DialogueSpeeches may also indicate the themes of a film. In About a Boy, for example, the protagonist describes his theory of “island living”( i.e.a radically independent lifestyle) in a speech addressed directly to the audience. In fact, this leads directly to the theme:Absolute independence is an undesirable state.·SubplotsThe main plot carries the main burden of the narrative. The subplot, on the other hand, can be used more flexibly to explore the thematic implications of the film.·Social ContextThemes can emerge from the interaction of a film’s subject matter and its social context.Take Forrest Gump as example·Episodic Structure and Repetition(章回式结构和循环)The narrative structure of Forrest Gump is basically episodic: that is, it is made up of separate, loosely connected situations that occur in the life of the protagonist.What holds together the narrative is not the plot but the figure of Gump himself.Accompanying this episodic structure is a pattern of repetitions. The scenein which Gump is bulliedby boys from his hometown is repeated a littlelater in his life, as is Jenny’s famous exhortation(告诫) to Forrest(Run, Forrest! Run). The act of getting on theschool bus to find no one willing to offer a seat is also repeated when Gump sets off for Vietnam. Gump’s meetings with American presidents occur time after time, as do reports of assassinations of prominent figures in recenthistory. Perhaps the most profound repetition, though, is the birth of the young Forrest Gump and his own first trip on the school bus: This time the repetition is accompanied by a change for the better, as the young Gump has all the charm of his father with none of the stupidity. The overall effect of these repetitions is to create an sense of circularity---the reassuring feeling that history repeats itself.Plot and SubplotForrest Gump is something of an exception because the story of Gump’s life and the plot of the film are almost identical. That is to say, the main plot is , essentially, nothing more than the story of Gump’s life: Gump is born, goes to school, goes to college, goes to Vietnam, comes home and sets up a shrimping business, meets Jenny again, runs across the country, etc.The subplot, which deals largely with Jenny’s life story,is radically different. It gives a lot of clues as to what has happened to Jenny during the course of her life, but very little of this is actually shown. We infer that she has caught AIDS , but none of this information is part of the subplot itself. Exercise Use your knowledge of the different kinds of subplot to categorize the Jenny subplot.The Jenny subplot can be categorized as both: ·Complicating: Jenny is Gump’s love interest, and so is adriving force in the main plot. ·Contradictory: Jenny’s underlying motivation(intellectualcuriosity) and attitude to life(experimental)are opposite to those of GumpVogler’s Seven Character ArchetypesChristopher Vogler, formerly story analyst at Disney and nowdirector of Development at Fox 2000 publisheda book, The Writer’s Journey: MythicStructure for Storytellers and Screenwriters,which has been called “the current industrybible”.Vogler argues that there are seven basic character functions:hero, mentor(导师), threshhold guardian(关卡守卫者), herald(信使), shapeshift(变化者), shadow(影子), and trickster(骗子,魔术师).These characters functions are reallybest thought of as character archetypes: thatis , they are mythological types to whichhumans respond on a deep instinctive levelbecause they represent the basic unchangingfeatures of human experiences.HeroMentor:Threshhold GuardianHeraldShapeshiftShadowTricksterThe Devil Wears Prada comedygenre ComedyThe Devil Wears Prada is a 2006 comedy-drama film, a loose screen adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's 2003 novel of the same name.Answer the following questionsa) Why does Miranda decide to hire Andrea Sachs,a girl who lacks styleand seems not to fit in there? B/c Andrea is different from the girlsMiranda always hires who are stylish,slender and worship themagazine, but turn out to be disappointing and stupid.b) What is Andrea’sattitude towards her job as Miranda’s assistant atRunway?At first ,she does not take the job seriously. Then sherealizes that if she wants to survive Miranda at Runway, she mustchange her attitude..She starts to respect Miranda’s style and putsforth her best efforts in the jobs.c) What is the reason for Andrea to leave Miranda and the Runway?Because Andrea learns that life is made of choices.She does not wantto live the way Miranda lives and then she chooses to pursue her ownlifestyle.Character AnalysisMiranda Priestly: demanding, a dragon lady, powerful, bossy, merciless,sophisticated, career-obsessedAndrea Sachs: naïve, idealistic, smart, perceptiveFashion runs through the movie as the overriding factor. A fashion magazine and its editor-in-chief provide the movie with the fundamental storyline.The cardinal rule dominating the fashion realm is “thinness”, which is ingeniously revealed in The Devil Wears Prada. Behind this obsession with one’s body image lies a pervasive problem of anorexia( ie, loss of the wish to eat)-------- one of the main types of eating disorders.Cast•Anne Hathaway as Andrea "Andy" Sachs:•Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly:•Emily Blunt as Emily Charlton:•Stanley Tucci as Nigel:•Simon Baker as Christian Thompson:•Adrian Grenier as Nate Cooper: Andrea's boyfriend•Tracie Thoms as Lily: Andrea's close friend, who runs an art gallery.•Rich Sommer as Doug: A college friend of AndreaMemorable Lines1.Fashion is not about utility.

Miranda Priestly is the finest possible guardian of that beacon. Setting a standard that inspires people across the globe.

What’s more, Will can have brief affairs with them without a commitment. They are easy to dump. 4.He feels worried about his mother and afraid that she will commitsuicide again. He realizes that two in a family is not enough and he needs a bavkup person.5.Because his mother once tells him that when he sings he bringssunshine to her and he wants to make his mother feel better by singing.6. In the movie Will and Marcus are the two unlikely friends who have formeda close bond. Do you think that two people will develop a close friendshipdespite great difference in age?Memorable lines1.Setting: At the beginning of the movie, Will expresses his opinion that all men are islands. He believes that this is an island age and explains the reason.A hundred years ago, for instance, you had to depend on other people. No one had TV or CDs or DVDs or videos or home espresso(蒸馏咖啡)makers. As a matter of fact, they didn’t have anything cool, whereas now, you see, you can make youself a little island paradise. With the right supplies and more importantly, the right attitude, you can be sun-drenched(充满阳光的), tropical, a maganet for the young Swedish tourists2.Setting:On the dead duck day Fiona overdoses and is sent to hospital. Will drives Marcus and Suzie home from the hospital at night and he doesn’t want to experience such things again.The thing is, a person’s life is like a TV show. I was the star of the Willshow. And the Will Show wasn’t an ensemble(合奏,合唱,整体) drama. Guests came and went, but I was the regular. It came down to me and me alone.3.Setting: At the end of the movie, Will changes his attitude.Every man is an island. I stand by that. But clearly some men are part of island chains. Below the surface of the ocean they’re actually connected.Forrest GumpQuestions1. The movie begins with a feather flying in the air and ends with it, too. Whatdoes this suggest?2. How did Forrest get his name?3. How do you understand the following quotations?Life is a box of chocolates. You never know what you,ve gonna get.Stupid is as stupid does.4.

It was written by Ron Nyswaner and directed by Jonathan Demme. The film stars Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. It was inspired in part by the story of Geoffrey Bowers, an attorney who in 1987 sued the law firm Baker & McKenzie for wrongful dismissal in one of the first AIDS discrimination cases.Answer the following questions1. What makes Andrew Beckett decide to sue the law firm which he haspreviously served?2. At first glance, Miller is a w orld apart from Beckett’s interests: he is a personal injury lawyer, better known for television commercials than for legal talent, and has had conflicts with Beckett in the courtroom before(Miller lost). Why does Beckett ask Miller to represent him?3. Why does Joe Miller initially refuse to take the case?4. What finally makes Joe Miller take the case?5. What do you think of the scene where Beckett plays an aria(咏叹调)from hisfavorite opera for Miller?Answers:1. Beckett’s bosses claim he has been fired for incompetence andmisplacing an important document for an important client, but Beckett is sure that it’s because he has AIDS. He considers that he is a victim ofprejudice, and is determined to win his case even as his own life begins to fade.2. Because the law firm is so powerful and prestigious, and Beckett is a gayinfected with AIDS, no other lawyer will take the case. After many rejections, with no one else to turn to, Andrew Beckett consults Joe Miller to help him pursue litigation.(诉讼)3. Joe Miller represents the everyman who harbours homophobic tendencies.He does not like homosexuals, who make his skin crawl. He also hasextreme fear of AIDs, and can hardly keep himself from wiping his hand on his pants after shaking Beckett’s hand.4. A chain of events has turned Miller’s emotions in line with Beckett’s case.His wife has a baby, from which he has learned what birth is about, and then he has found out about death too. He comes across the ailing Beckett in the library. Seeing through the face of AIDS, he sees that there’s a dying man there. Then he has a change of heart, recognizing a hint of familiar discrimination in the way Beckett is being treated. He is essentially homophobic but he is also against prejudice. After initial reluctance, he takes the case.5. It’s a brilliant scene where Beckett tries to give a passionate translation ofthe aria “La Momma Morta” while Miller looks on in stunned silence.Miller’s isn’t an opera fan, but as the music plays and Beckett talks over it,passionately explaining his acceptance of death in the midst ofdisplaying his continuing passion for life, Miller undergoes a conversation of the soul. And finally, what Miller sees is a man who loves life and does not want to leave it.Character AnalysisAndrew Beckett: a victim of prejudice, gifted, genuine, forgiving, kindJoe Miller: honest, warm-hearted, prepared for fight for justice, relaxed, witty Charles Wheeler: elegant, smart, selfish, hypocriticalThe setting of the film Philadelphia, which concerns the struggle of an AIDS sufferer to assert his legal rights in the face of prejudice, issymbolic. Think about the (1) the literal meaning of the city’s name, and (2) the city’s role in American history, try to explain why.(1) the literal meaning of Philadelphia is the city of brotherly love. The prefix“phila-“ means “love”; it also occurs in the words “philanthropy”( love of mankind) and “philosophy” (love of wisdom). “Delphia” comes from the Greek “adelphus” meaning “brother”. This is significant because the film seeks to contrast the old ideals of America (i.e. love and tolerance) with the reality of modern prejudice( against AIDS sufferers).(2) Philadelphia was the city in which the first public reading of theDeclaration of Independence occurred. It is also the city in which theLiberty Bell is located. This is significant because the Declaration ofIndependence states America’s commitment to individual’s rights to “ life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. These are precisely the rights that are denied to the protagonist of the film. The film uses this symbolicsetting to draw attention to the way that the old ideals of the AmericanRepublic are being systematically ignored in the face of the AIDS threat.。

How does the title reflect the themes and narrative of the movie?"The Shawshank Redemption" is a poignant title that encapsulates the essence of the film. It refers to the Shawshank State Penitentiary, the central setting of the story, and the redemption that unfolds within its walls.

Cinematography and Visual Storytelling: Evaluate the use of color and lighting in "Schindler's List" and how it contributes to the emotional impact of the film."Schindler's List" is a masterclass in visual storytelling through its use of black and white cinematography, punctuated by the stark contrast of color. The film's monochrome palette immerses the audience in the bleakness of the Holocaust, creating a sense of desolation and despair. The introduction of color, such as the red coat of the little girl, serves as a symbol of life and hope amidst the darkness. This visual technique enhances the emotional impact of the film, making the moments of humanity and compassion stand out in stark relief against the backdrop of horror.4. Sound and Music in Film: Discuss the role of the score in "Jaws" and how it contributes to the suspense and tension of the film.The score for "Jaws" by John Williams is one of the most iconic in film history. The simple yet effective two-note motif becomes synonymous with the shark itself, creating an auditory association that heightens the sense of dread. The music is used sparingly, allowing the silence to build tension, and then striking with the sudden appearance of the motif to shock the audience. This use of music is a keyelement in the suspense and terror that define the film, making the unseen threat of the shark all the more palpable.5. Cultural Representation and Impact: Examine the portrayalof mental health in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and its impact on societal perceptions."One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" offers a powerful portrayal of mental health and the institutional treatment of patients. The film challenges the dehumanizing practices ofthe mental health system, showing the oppressive nature ofthe institution and the impact it has on the patients' autonomy and dignity. The character of Randle McMurphy,played by Jack Nicholson, embodies the struggle against the system, and his journey highlights the need for empathy and understanding in the treatment of mental health. The film has had a lasting impact on societal perceptions, prompting discussions about the ethics of mental health care andpatient rights.6. Director's Style and Influence: Analyze the distinctive style of Quentin Tarantino and its influence on modern cinema.Quentin Tarantino's films are characterized by their nonlinear narratives, sharp dialogue, and graphic violence, often interspersed with humor. His style is heavilyinfluenced by grindhouse cinema, spaghetti westerns, and martial arts films, which he blends with a unique flair. Tarantino's influence on modern cinema is evident in the resurgence of interest in these genres and the adoption ofhis storytelling techniques by other directors. His films,such as "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bill," have left anindelible mark on the cinematic landscape, inspiring a new generation of filmmakers to experiment with narrativestructure and visual style.7. Adaptation and Fidelity: Compare and contrast the film adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy with its source material. Discuss the challenges of adapting such an epicwork to the screen.The film adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy isa monumental task, translating J.R.R. Tolkien's richlydetailed and expansive world to the screen. The filmsmaintain fidelity to the source material by capturing the essence of the story, its themes, and its characters. However, due to the constraints of film。

Reading Comprehension (20%)Passage OneMost people think that the capital of the movie world is Hollywood, in the United States. However, the real movie capital is Mumbai, in India. Mumbai used to be known as Bombay, and so the film industry there is called ―Bollywood ‖. Bollywood makes twice as many movies each year as Hollywood-more than 800 films a year.The movies from Bollywood are very different from Hollywood movies. For one thing, Bollywood movies are much longer than most Hollywood movies. Most Bollywood movies are more than three hours long, and contain singing, dancing, action, adventure, mystery, and romance. Because Bollywood films contain so many different features, this style of film is sometimes called a ―masala ‖ film. (Masala is an Indian word for a mixture of spices.)Another big difference between Bollywood and Hollywood movies is the way the movies are made. It takes much longer to make a movie in Hollywood than in Bollywood. In fact, filming may begin on a Bollywood movie before the script is even finished. The director and writers can make up the story while the film is being made. Sometimes the will even write the script by hand instead of taking time to type it.Bollywood actors are very popular and some are in such high demand that they mayQuestion 23work on several movies at the same time. They may even shoot scenes for several films on the same day using the same clothes and scenery(舞台布景). Since most Bollywood movies follow the same kind of story, shooting scenes for several films at the same time is not a big problem for actors or directors. This also helps keep the cost of Bollywood movies lower. The average Bollywood films, with a budge of only two million U.S. dollars, seems very cheap compared to the average budge of sixty million U.S. dollars for a Hollywood film-thirty times as much!31. The main topic of the passage is_________.A. famous stars in BollywoodB. how Hollywood movies are madeC. the differences between two movie industriesD. the history of movie-making32. What is NOT true about Mumbai?A. It is the movie capital of India.B. Its new name is Bombay.C. More movies are made there than in America.D. Bollywood is there.33. Why are Bollywood movies often called ―masala‖ films?A. They have interesting stories.B. They are much longer in time.C. They show Indian culture.D.They mix different styles of movies.34. Bollywood movies are cheap to make because_________.A. they are shorter than Hollywood moviesB. the scripts are written by handC. the movies do not use special effectsD. most movies reuse things from other movies35. Which of these statements could the writer probably agree to?A. Most Bollywood movies are very similar.B. It takes much money to make films.C. Only Indians can understand Bollywood movies.D. Hollywood movies are violent.Passage TwoMetro Pocket GuideMetrorail(地铁)Each passenger needs a farecard to enter and go out.

英文影视赏析复习提纲

英文影视赏析复习提纲

英文影视赏析复习提纲基本知识电影史(History)电影的历史并不漫长。

以好莱坞电影来说,主要分三个历史时期—早期电影(early cinema)、经典好莱坞电影(classic Hollywood cinema)、和后经典好莱坞电影(post-classic Hollywood cinema)。

每个时期的电影在艺术风格上都有各自的特点。

(1)早期电影(19世纪末20世纪初)1826年摄影技术的发明给电影的出现打下了基础。

1889年柯达(Kodak)公司研制出一种又薄又软的底片即赛璐珞(celluloid),这种底片可以高速穿过镜头,拍摄影像,并且可以高速连续地在投影仪上放映。

另外一个突破性发明是美国的爱迪生(Edison)和法国的吕米埃克兄弟(Lumiere brothers 法国人)分别发明的可以拍摄连续活动的摄像机,于1895年拍摄了世界上第一部电影(《火车进站》),这标志着美国电影史的开端。

这个时期的电影主要通过镍币影院(nickelodeons一种门票一律五分镍币即五美分的小型电影院)放映。

早期电影的制作基本是依靠“摄影师制度”(cameraman system),即每部电影都是由个人(摄影师)制作,这个人负责策划、编剧、摄影和剪辑。

这时的电影业被两个公司垄断:爱迪生和贝尔格拉夫(Edison and Biograph)公司,两家公司合办了电影专利公司MPPC(Motion Pictures Patents Company)。

从美学角度看,早期电影最显著的特点是倾向于记录和重视现实生活的某些方面,这种“真实摄影”(actually filming)是对单个人,名人或运动员,地点(风景区)或者行动(日常生活或新闻事件)进行长距离的连续拍摄。

虚构的场景也不过是小品、歌舞杂耍或对真实事件的重现。

这一时期的电影主要依赖于景象,而不是叙事。

喜剧小品、魔术表演是其核心内容,我们最熟悉的是卓别林(著名的英国喜剧演员,编剧,导演,喜剧电影的奠基人)的电影。

大学英语电影鉴赏-当幸福来敲门

大学英语电影鉴赏-当幸福来敲门

A film review on The Pursuit of HappynessThe story takes place in 1981 in the United States, which is reeling from the effects of the Vietnam War. The economy of the United States was in deep depression. Nearly 40 percent of the people were out of work. The whole society was in the dark.The film's main character, Chris Gardner, played by Will Smith, lives in such a person in the society. Chris started out as a salesman for bone density scanners, but the machines didn't sell well, so he lived in poverty. By chance, Chris got an internship in a securities company with no salary and an internship period of six months. Chris decided to give it a try. But his wife left him because she could not bear to live in poverty, and Chris and his son were evicted by their landlord because they could not pay the rent. For six months, he worked as an intern, selling bone-density scanners and competing for a bed at a church. Although the process was hard ,his persistence brought him success in the end.What impresses me most in the whole movie is the scene where Chris and his son are playing basketball on the rooftop. The son says he's going to be a professional player when he grows up. Chris says he wasn't a good player then, and he probably won't be any better when his son grows up. He wanted his son to do something else and not play ball all day. After listening to his father said this, the son some lost put away the basketball. Then Chris looked at him and said, "Don't let anyone say you can't do anything, even if it's me. The son nodded. Chris went on to say, "You got a dream, you got to go for it. "I think that's a good explanation of why Chris was successful. Chris was confident that he would win out of 19. Even when his wife left him, his landlord kicked him out and he had to sleep in the toilet at the station, he never gave up. It is because he has been marching towards his dream that he can finally achieve happiness.T here is no “y” in happiness, but there is an “I”. This phrase is a central idea throughout the film. Happiness does not always come with the question "why", the real key is "I", we experience all the pain will pass, do not complain, as long as we try to live, then life will return to us.。

高校公共英语《英语影视欣赏》课程小结
本学期所授班级中机电2031、机电2032合班和机电2033班采用的教材均为《英语影视欣赏》,选取了其中的“穿普拉达的女王”、“当幸福来敲门”、“天生一对”、“辣妈辣妹”、“肖申克的救赎”以及根据学生的情况和主题系列另加了“公主日记”等六部影片供学生欣赏、学习和讨论。

学生在欣赏影片情节的基础上,也加强了听力训练、词汇学习,让学生感受不同文化背景下的文化差异,接受多元化的现代社会素养。

由于机电2033班学生是分层教学的C层班级,学生英语基础普遍较差,所以在学习要求上和AB层学生有区别。

对C层的学生更多的是加强基础方面的复习和提升,一些重要语言点、语法知识、翻译技巧,或是词汇理解、写作练习,以及趣味阅读,都只能少量地、循序渐进地贯穿在生动有趣的课堂活动中,让学生在轻松愉快的氛围中更好地掌握语言知识,提升语言应用能力。

其中的医药A2班采用的教材是《新职业英语》。

授课时在该书八个单元中选取了部分单元的课文阅读A、阅读B、语言实验室或Mini项目等,其中以第三、四、七、八四个单元为重点学习单元,每个单元以Reading A的学习讨论为主,课文学习后,配合课后练习中的阅读理解、词汇和结构、完成句子、翻译等来加以知识的巩固,使学生能更好的掌握和运用知识。

有些课外的资源和一些等级考试的词汇练习放在学习通里进行,以方便有需要的学生进一步学习和检测,使学生能更直观的感受学习的成果。

英语电影知识点总结

英语电影知识点总结Movies are an essential part of popular culture, and understanding the key concepts and knowledge related to movies is crucial for anyone interested in film and entertainment. From the history of cinema to the different genres and styles of filmmaking, there are a wide range of topics to explore in the realm of film studies. In this article, we will delve into various aspects of movie knowledge, including the evolution of cinema, important filmmakers and films, as well as the impact of technology on the film industry.The History of CinemaThe history of cinema dates back to the late 19th century, with the invention of the motion picture camera and the first public screening of a film by the Lumière brothers in 1895. Since then, cinema has undergone significant changes and developments, leading to the establishment of major film industries in countries such as the United States, France, and India.Key developments in the history of cinema include the introduction of sound in films, known as "talkies," in the late 1920s, which revolutionized the way movies were made and experienced by audiences. This era also saw the rise of Hollywood as the epicenter of global filmmaking, with studios such as Warner Bros., Paramount, and MGM dominating the industry.The Golden Age of Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s produced timeless classics and iconic stars, including actors like Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn, as well as directors such as Alfred Hitchcock, Howard Hawks, and Frank Capra. The emergence of television in the 1950s and 1960s posed a challenge to the film industry, leading to the development of new technologies and formats, such as widescreen and 3D, to attract audiences back to the theaters.The 1970s and 1980s saw the rise of independent filmmaking and the emergence of new talents, such as Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, and George Lucas, who revolutionized the art of storytelling and visual effects in cinema. This era also witnessed the birth of blockbuster movies, with franchises like "Star Wars," "Indiana Jones," and "Rocky" becoming global phenomena.The 1990s and 2000s marked the advent of digital filmmaking and computer-generated imagery (CGI), which transformed the way movies were produced and consumed. Directors like James Cameron, Peter Jackson, and Christopher Nolan pushed the boundaries of visual effects and storytelling, creating groundbreaking films like "Avatar," "The Lord of the Rings," and "Inception."Today, the film industry continues to evolve with the advancements in technology, the rise of streaming platforms, and the increasing diversity of voices and stories being told on screen. The history of cinema provides a rich tapestry of cultural, social, and artisticsignificance, and studying its evolution is essential for understanding the impact of movies on society.Genres and Styles of FilmmakingOne of the key aspects of movie knowledge is understanding the different genres and styles of filmmaking that have emerged over the years. From classic Hollywood genres like the western, musical, and film noir to contemporary trends such as superhero movies, horror, and sci-fi, there is a wide range of genres to explore in the world of cinema.The western genre, characterized by its iconic landscapes, rugged heroes, and themes of justice and morality, has been a staple of American cinema since the early days of Hollywood. Directors like John Ford, Sergio Leone, and Clint Eastwood have left an indelible mark on the genre with films such as "The Searchers," "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly," and "Unforgiven."The musical genre, known for its spectacle, song, and dance, reached its zenith during the Golden Age of Hollywood with classics like "Singin' in the Rain," "The Sound of Music," and "West Side Story." The genre continues to thrive in contemporary cinema with films like "La La Land," "The Greatest Showman," and "Moulin Rouge!"Film noir, a dark and stylish genre characterized by its moody visuals, femme fatales, and morally ambiguous characters, has influenced generations of filmmakers with classics like "Double Indemnity," "The Maltese Falcon," and "Chinatown." The genre continues to inspire modern interpretations in films like "L.A. Confidential," "Sin City," and "Drive."Superhero movies have become a dominant force in contemporary cinema, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe and DC Extended Universe leading the charge with iconic characters like Iron Man, Batman, and Wonder Woman. Directors like Christopher Nolan, Joss Whedon, and the Russo brothers have redefined the genre with films like "The Dark Knight," "The Avengers," and "Avengers: Endgame."Horror films, known for their ability to scare and intrigue audiences, have a rich history in cinema, with iconic monsters like Dracula, Frankenstein, and Freddy Krueger haunting the screen. Directors like Alfred Hitchcock, John Carpenter, and Jordan Peele have left their mark on the genre with films like "Psycho," "Halloween," and "Get Out."Science fiction (sci-fi) is another influential genre that has captivated audiences with its futuristic visions, space exploration, and mind-bending concepts. Filmmakers like Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg, and Ridley Scott have created landmark sci-fi films such as "2001: A Space Odyssey," "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," and "Blade Runner."Understanding the different genres and styles of filmmaking is essential for appreciating the diversity and impact of movies on popular culture. Each genre has its own conventions, themes, and visual language, which contribute to the rich tapestry of cinematic storytelling.Important Filmmakers and FilmsAnother key aspect of movie knowledge is recognizing the contributions of important filmmakers and their influential films. From the pioneers of cinema to contemporary auteurs, there are countless directors and their works that have left an indelible mark on the medium of film.The Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, are credited with inventing the motion picture camera and pioneering the concept of projection, leading to the first public screening of a film in 1895. Their short films, including "Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory" and "Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat," are considered some of the earliest examples of narrative cinema.Georges Méliès, a French filmmaker and magician, is known for his pioneering work in the realm of special effects and fantasy storytelling. His film "A Trip to the Moon" (1902) is considered a landmark in the history of cinema, featuring innovative techniques and imaginative storytelling that set the stage for future filmmakers.D.W. Griffith, an American director, is often regarded as the father of narrative filmmaking, with his epic film "The Birth of a Nation" (1915) making significant strides in editing, storytelling, and cinematography. Despite its controversial subject matter and racial stereotypes, the film's technical achievements have had a lasting impact on the medium.Charlie Chaplin, a comedic genius and versatile filmmaker, is best known for his iconic character, the Tramp, who found humor and humanity in the face of adversity. Chaplin's films, including "The Kid," "City Lights," and "Modern Times," continue to be celebrated for their timeless comedy and social commentary.Alfred Hitchcock, the master of suspense, is renowned for his mastery of tension, visual storytelling, and psychological thrills. His films, such as "Psycho," "Vertigo," and "North by Northwest," have left an indelible mark on the thriller genre and continue to captivate audiences with their suspenseful storytelling.Akira Kurosawa, a Japanese director, is revered for his epic samurai films and humanist storytelling. His films, including "Seven Samurai," "Rashomon," and "Yojimbo," have had a profound impact on global cinema, influencing directors like Sergio Leone, George Lucas, and Martin Scorsese.Francis Ford Coppola, a maverick filmmaker of the New Hollywood era, is best known for his epic crime saga "The Godfather" and its sequel, as well as the Vietnam War film "Apocalypse Now." Coppola's bold storytelling and visual style have solidified his place as one of the most influential directors in American cinema.Steven Spielberg, a visionary filmmaker and master storyteller, has crafted a diverse range of films that have captivated audiences and defined popular culture. His works, including "Jaws," "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial," and "Jurassic Park," have set new standards in blockbuster filmmaking and storytelling.Martin Scorsese, an auteur known for his gritty and visceral filmmaking style, has created a body of work that explores themes of crime, violence, and the human condition. His films, such as "Taxi Driver," "Raging Bull," and "Goodfellas," have earned him critical acclaim and a reputation as a master filmmaker.Christopher Nolan, a contemporary director known for his mind-bending narratives and innovative storytelling techniques, has redefined the concept of blockbuster filmmaking with films like "Inception," "The Dark Knight," and "Interstellar." Nolan's commitment to practical effects and ambitious storytelling has made him a trailblazer in modern cinema.The works of these filmmakers and many others have shaped the art of filmmaking and left an indelible mark on the history of cinema. Understanding their contributions and the impact of their films is essential for appreciating the evolution of the medium and its cultural significance.Impact of Technology on the Film IndustryThe impact of technology on the film industry is another crucial aspect of movie knowledge, as advancements in cameras, editing software, and visual effects have transformed the way movies are made and experienced by audiences.The invention of sound in films, known as "talkies," revolutionized the medium in the late 1920s, leading to the decline of silent cinema and the rise of a new era of filmmaking. The development of synchronized sound technology, such as the Vitaphone system, allowed for the integration of dialogue, music, and sound effects into motion pictures.The introduction of color in films, known as "Technicolor," marked another significant milestone in the evolution of cinema, adding a new dimension to visual storytelling and expanding the possibilities of cinematography. Classic films like "The Wizard of Oz," "Gone with the Wind," and "Singin' in the Rain" showcased the vibrant and immersive nature of color filmmaking.The advent of digital filmmaking and computer-generated imagery (CGI) in the late 20th century revolutionized the way movies were produced and experienced by audiences. Directors like James Cameron, George Lucas, and Peter Jackson pushed the boundaries of visual effects with groundbreaking films like "Terminator 2: Judgment Day," "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace," and "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring." The rise of digital distribution and streaming platforms in the 21st century has transformed the way audiences access and consume movies, with services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ providing a plethora of content at the click of a button. The convergence of technology and entertainment has reshaped the film industry, leading to new business models, marketing strategies, and audience engagement.The ongoing advancements in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and artificial intelligence (AI) are poised to further revolutionize the film industry, offering newpossibilities for immersive storytelling, interactive experiences, and personalized content delivery. As technology continues to shape the future of cinema, understanding its impact on the medium is essential for anyone interested in the art and business of filmmaking.ConclusionMovie knowledge encompasses a wide range of topics, from the history of cinema to the different genres and styles of filmmaking, as well as the impact of technology on the film industry. By understanding these key concepts and exploring the works of important filmmakers and films, audiences can gain a deeper appreciation for the art, cultural significance, and evolution of cinema. Whether one is a casual moviegoer, a student of film studies, or a professional in the industry, having a comprehensive understanding of movie knowledge is essential for navigating the world of cinema and appreciating its impact on society.。

《Holy Bible》圣经《King Arthur》亚瑟王《Greek Myths》希腊神话判断、简答题1.五大电影公司:Warner Brothers; Loew’s-MGM; Fox; Radio-Keith-Orpheum (RKO); Paramount三小电影公司:Columbia; Universal; United Artists2.Sound and ColorSound–was introduced by Warner Brothers in Don Juan.在华纳公司的《唐璜》中引进Color–was initially limited by its expense and crudity; yet by the 1930s the quality had improved.最初受制于费用而且生硬,但到了1930年代质量得到了改善。

3.角色The main character is the most important character in a film, and the character of greatest interest. Usually the main character is also the “protagonist”, the character whose actions trigger the chain of causes and effects that drive the plot forward.主要角色是电影中最重要的角色,也是最具吸引力的角色。

主要人物通常就是主角,其行动引起的原因,产生的影响推动着情节的发展。

Secondary characters are those who interact with the protagonist and have significant impact on the development of the narrative. They can often be divided into three main functions: the opposition character, the mirror character, and the romance character.次要人物与主角交互,影响着叙事的发展。

它们通常可以分为三个主要功能:反派角色,镜像角色和浪漫角色。

The mirror character also known as the “support”is the character most clearly aligned with, and supportive of the protagonist. Mirror characters offer support to the protagonist through the difficulties he encounters, often because they share with him certain beliefs and attitudes. They have important dramatic function of engaging in regular dialogue with the protagonist, helping him to formulate his goals and at the sametime helping the audience to better understand the protagonist’s character and situation.性格最明确,且赞同和支持主角的角色称为镜像角色。

镜像角色帮助主角度过难关,往往是因为他们与主角分享他们的某些信念和态度。

他们有着重要的戏剧功能,定期对话主角,帮助主角制定目标,同时帮助观众更好地了解主角的性格和处境。

4.叙述Narrative refers to the way that a story is told. It is principally concerned with the way that events are organized in time and space –the way in which the scriptwriter and director take the raw elements of a story and arrange them in the most attractive and interesting way.Narrative–a chain of events in cause-effect relationships occurring in time and space. 叙述是指讲述一个故事的方式。

它主要关注的是事件在时间和空间上的组织方式- 编剧和导演以最有吸引力和最有趣的方式安排故事的原始元素。

叙述——在时间和空间上发生的一连串事件的因果关系。

5.九大故事Achilles, Candide, Cinderella, Circe, Faust, Orpheus, Romeo and Juliet, Tristan, and the Wandering Jew.阿喀琉斯(跟腱),老实人,灰姑娘,塞丝,“浮士德”,奥菲斯,“罗密欧与朱丽叶”,特里斯坦,流浪的犹太人。

6.主题Stated simply, the theme of a film is its main point; it is what the scriptwriter and director want to tell us. In more precise terms, theme is the controlling idea of the film.In addition to constituting a general comment about life, the theme is also the central and controlling idea. It is that center of gravity around which all the other elements of the film (genre, character, narrative, style) imperceptibly revolve. It would be wrong to assume that there is only one theme in every film. It is quite possible that scriptwriter/director has intentionally allowed for the coexistence of more than one theme.简单说来,一部电影的主题是其主要的点,它是编剧和导演想告诉我们的东西。

更精确的讲,主题是电影的控制思想。

除了构成一个关于生活的总体评价,主题也是中央和控制思想。

它是重心,围绕这部电影的所有其他元素(流派,人物,叙事,风格)不知不觉地转换。

假设一部电影只有一个主题这是错误的。

这很可能是编剧/导演有意允许多个主题共存。

7.七大主题Broad Human ConcernsLife PhilosophiesReligious and Ethical ConcernsHistorical IssuesNations and National CharacteristicsSocial/Cultural/Technological ChangesSocial Problems广泛的人权问题人生哲理宗教和伦理问题历史问题联合国和民族特色。

社会/文化/技术变革社会问题8.动作片特征The chief characteristics of the action film are:the domination of the cinematic, the image, and technology;the simplification of narrative, characterization, dialogue and theme. The non-action elements of cinema undergo considerable simplification in the action genre. Narrative structure is reduced to the basic formula of chase followed by chase. Characters are not psychologically well developed; they are used instead as agents and/or victims of the next spectacular event.The self-deprecating humor. The tone of action film is light-hearted and irreverent; they self-consciously make fun of themselves. The injection of humor into the action film has the effect of making its violence and destruction seem comic and unreal.9.爱情片的核心The essence of the romantic film is the “force opposed to love ”that, by presenting obstacles to the lovers, turns a love affair into a story. In the past force has taken the form of so-called “blocking characters”. Traditionally, the blocking characters would be the parents of the lovers. As parental control over children has relaxed, and as the possibility of divorce has arisen, neither of these forces is sufficiently convincing as an obstacle, and scriptwriters have had to employ other mechanisms for impeding the course of true love.Another method employed by romantic films is to start from the so-called “unlikely couple”scenario. The unlikely couple consists of two characters who are thoroughly ill-matched, perhaps because they come from different class or racial backgrounds, are of very different ages or occupations, or are temperamentally opposite, and thus would not normally be expected to become lovers. The differences between the two central characters thus become the source of the conflict and difficulties that drive the plot forward.浪漫电影的本质是“力量反对爱”,把阻碍恋人转变为一个反对恋情的故事。
