Analysis of “Pulp Fiction” and the Transformation of Jules
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the 1994, Quentin Tarantino movie “Pulp Fiction” and the character of Jules Winnfield. Postmodernism serves as the primary context in which a character such as Jules is moving through his “journey.” Regardless of his reprehensible actions, he is part of a particular aspect of modern life which, for him and his partners has both meaning and depth. His realization of the possibility and even the likelihood of miracles is, in itself, a miracle. Bibliography lists one source.

Analysis/Coppola's Apocalypse Now
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page essay that examines Francis Ford Coppola's film Apocalypse Now (1979). The writer argues that Coppola's visual manifesto on Vietnam is also a journey into the subconscious and the brutal nature that lies beneath the thin veneer of so-called civilized behavior. Like its literary predecessor, Joseph Conrad's novel Heart of Darkness, on which the screenplay is loosely based, Coppola constructed the narrative of the film so that it demonstrates how identity is a social construct predicated on the reconstruction or remembrance of the past. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

[ send me this paper ]

Andrew Niccol's "Gattaca": Philosophical Theme
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. In humanity's quest to embrace the concept of Utopia, Niccol's treatment of the human condition would typically inspire one to envision a world where people live life in accordance with the rule of reason; however, the writer's intent was quite the opposite. Utilizing "Gattaca" as a metaphor for Utopia – meaning true human happiness – clearly displays the need for ethical humanism, inasmuch as it is not difficult to ascertain just how off track society has gone in its urgent quest to reap materialistic benefits and gain individual domination. The writer discusses that as one relates the consequences of a world without moral fortitude, one can also perceive the manner by which humanity has overstepped the boundaries that bring together ethical conscience and humanism. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Andy Kaufman -- A Phenomenon of Sociological Comment
[ send me this paper ]
This 6
page report discusses the comic actor Andy Kaufman (1949-1984).
People who are aware of Andy Kaufman appear to have one of two
attitudes about him -- they love him, thought him to be a comic
genius, and are certain he was greatly under-estimated. The
other attitude is that Kaufman was tiresome, a mediocre talent,
and are certain he was greatly over-estimated. Regardless of
personal likes or dislikes, one can see that Kaufman always
presented his commentary on contemporary life. Whether the
audience liked or agreed with it was not his concern.
