 TWIN DRAGONS (1992), ChildCare Action Project (CAP) Media Analysis Report Report MAR05099
"Twin Dragons" (PG-13) -- a foreign film with English dubbed over (not subtitled), was a violent and sexual comic romp in the lives of two brothers separated at birth.
"Twin Dragons" presented a lot of footage of Jackie Chan in action - a god display of the Martial arts -- but it was still fighting to gain or to control.
And the use of firearms to control in a theme of gangster control "supported" the control by karate maneuvers.

 Regnum Crucis
Note that so far the only places where there's been reported violence (Baghdad, Diyala, Mahmoudiya, Baquba, and so on) are all areas where the Mahdi Army is known to have been active, so they don't seem to have expanded their zone of control by much.
They also have de facto control of a number of other areas in northern Mali, Mindanao, Bangladesh, and so on, as well as a state-guaranteed haven inside Iran.
And real briefly on the issue of Waziristan, al-Qaeda has probably in de facto control of the region since 2002 and has certainly been consolidating its control ever since they beat the Pakistani army back in 2004.

 DVD RE-RUN: Jehane Noujaim On "Control Room": "My Loyalties Are to the Characters"
If ever a film could be termed incendiary, it's "Control Room." Helmed by 29-year-old Egyptian-American filmmaker Jehane Noujaim (co-director of "Startup.com"), it scans the inner workings of Al Jazeera and comes up with a balanced view of the Arab satellite news agency, even suggesting it might traffic more in truth than our own news media.
iW: So much is going on in the film: news feeds coming into the control room, conflicting reportage, debates on world politics.
Noujaim: I won't know until after I've finished with "Control Room." I'll continue making films because I love being able to drop into other people's worlds.

 Review: Fast, Cheap & Out of Control
Fast, Cheap & Out of Control isn't much like any of Morris' other well-known films -- Gates of Heaven (about a pet cemetery), The Thin Blue Line (about a murder), and A Brief History of Time (about science, space, and infinity).
By piecing the film together with fast cuts and sequences where the soundtrack of one interview overlaps images depicting the activities of another of the subjects, Morris explores at least two intriguing, interrelated themes: the evolution of humankind and our never-ending attempt to control our environment.
Fast, Cheap & Out of Control functions as a requiem for the past and a nod to the future.

 Fast, Cheap & Out of Control
Fast Cheap & Out of Control contains a multitude of parallels and tiny intersections, culminating in what feels like an elegy (the film is dedicated to Morris's late mother and stepfather).
In some ways the slickest film yet from nonfiction auteur Morris ( The Thin Blue Line, A Brief History of Time), Fast, Cheap & Out of Control is reportage of the highest order.
The film is balanced on that airy precipice dividing the already musty past from the alternately exhilarating and terrifying space that is the future.

The film proceeds coolly and cleverly, as Morgan starts to grapple with questions of identity and control, with determining what and who he really knows.
What lingers, in the end, is the kind of unstable reality the film establishes, the atmosphere of conspiracy, control and threatening banality.
And, although there are some neat twists involved in the way this plays out, the final stages of the film are less satisfying.

Continuing the story where the film Tron left off, 20 years have passed since Alan Bradley's defense program (portrayed by Bruce Boxleitner in the film) defeated the evil Master Control Program's diabolical plans of worldwide computer corruption and control.
Not only did the designers of Tron 2.0 effectively re-create the sound effects featured in the classic film, they also enlisted the aid of the Wendy Carlos (the creator and composer of original film soundtrack) to once again work her magic with the musical score found in the game.
20 years since its release the film Tron still seems as brilliant and innovative as it was back in 1982, and remains a huge cult-classic hit.

 Review of 'Secretary' on the official website of Laura Hird
The manual typewriter which types up the titles at the start of the film, and on which Spader insists she types all his letters is the ultimate means of control.
The film then charts the increasingly bizarre SM relationship between the two characters, the harsher the Spader character treats her, the further she wants him to go.
A thoughtfully and subtly sexy take on the sexual politics of the workplace and the suppressed human need to be controlled and take control of others.

Likewise, in the case of the projection of a film, the director/producer is one who will have control over the shaping of the myth, and once shot as wished, the film will have a power of stability not guaranteed by the stage play.
In the film, Jacob's Ladder, for example, one is confronted with a flux of seemingly disconnected images, which only make sense to the viewer after having seen the end of the film.
Throughout the film, at least up until the end, the viewer attempts over and over again to formulate a sensible, coherent account of the images portrayed, assuming of course one views it from the upper portion of Plato's divided line.
