enjoyable and some may find books boring. In order to deliver the true feeling of Scotland in the late 13th century and give educational words about hardship times, that would stick within the mind forever, world needs something in larger scale. Mel Gibson gave the world opportunity of enjoyment and education at the same time, by producing a movie called Braveheart. The movie Braveheart is about a peasant boy of the end of the 13th century, William Wallace (Mel Gipson), that grows up into a…

Throughout the years the “Passion of the Christ” movies have been used to tell the story about Christ’s death and resurrection. Then in 2004 Mel Gibson made his version of the movie and as I like to say brought it in to the 21st century with updated graphics, violence, and blood. The combination of images, faith, and history this film truly was like no other Passion of Christ movie ever done. The Passion of the Christ is a serious and deep piece of cinematography, it not just show us how much…

Hamlet the Play versus Hamlet the Movie The movie Hamlet and the play have many noticeable differences. The Hamlet starring Mel Gibson added and cut scenes and lines from the play. The director most likely did this so that viewers could understand Hamlet better. Overall, the movie kept main themes and the plot however multiple noticeable changes were made. The differences start immediately, the play begins with Horatio and the guards waiting outside of the castle for the ghost to arrive.…

For example, when William got captured he was brave as he stood up to the judge. The judge asked William, "Confess and you may receive a quick death. Deny and you must be purified with pain" (Braveheart 2:30:46). William had an opportunity to confess and pledge allegiance to the king but he refused. William said to the judge, "Never in my whole life, did I swear allegiance to him" (Braveheart 2:30:34). If William pledged to the king, his barbaric acts would have been for nothing. Wallace…

The Kenneth Branagh version of the “Mousetrap” scene was both a more sophisticated and a more convincing interpretation of Hamlet, even though this version is a little less intense. First of all, the acting revolving around Hamlet’s behavior towards Ophelia was very different than other versions of the play I have seen. Next, was the staging of the play within the play, which had its unique impact as well seeing that there were many people who attended rather than a small group. Then, there is…

Beep. Beep. Beep. The alarm next to my bed sounded. Looking up, the clock read 6:00. Time to wake up. Time to save the world. I might not look like much. Average height, average build, and an unmemorable face. None of that matters in the Matrix though. In the Matrix, you can be anything. In the Matrix, I am the most elite hacker in the world. Hacking isn 't like what it used to be. Used to be AI sat there covered in their ice and all you had to do was run a program to break through without…

some level. An excellent example of this would be William Shakespeare 's famous play Hamlet. Since 1900, there have been over fifty films of this play have been made, and all have been unique in their own way. The 1990 version of Hamlet, starring Mel Gibson, is one of the more recent and popular…

Honestly, this read was a very informative one at least for me. It explains the tribulations of African Americans and their roles in the film industry. How society labels a black person (taking a quote from Charles Burnett Page[51]) “Making an ass of himself” and thus will be depicted films which in turn puts gives society a stamp to continue the labeling, which is young generation will see this depiction and might believe its reality, a concern expressed by Bobby grandmother in the film…

rather similar, since they are entitled the same and the movie is based on the play. Although this does not seem to be the case in comparing the play, Hamlet by William Shakespeare and the movie Hamlet directed by Franco Zeffirelli and starring Mel Gibson. The movie does follow the basic plot line and have the majority of the same characters as the play, but Zeffirelli added to and took out various parts of the original play by Shakespeare. The differences are noticeable right from the…
