		The Movies will let you be the head of your very own movie studio, starting in any time period between the early 20th century and the early 21st century.

		When your movie is entirely filmed, it will be released to the public and praised (or razed) by the critics--and depending on the time period you film in, you may even be able to make further royalties on it with eventual VHS and DVD rereleases.

	LINGUIST List 9.1612: Movies with Convincing Accents
		In extrapolating the idea of movies as song-lines he examines feature films under the following categories : songs of the land ; the bushman ; the convicts ; the bush-rangers ; mates and larrikins ; the digger ; pommy bashing ; the sheilas ; gays ; the wogs ; flfellas ; urban subversion.
		The movie is taken from a novel by Alan Duff, a half Maori writer who has become a leading spokesman for 'neo-conservative' approaches to Maori culture.
		An important point in the movie is that the bad guys, who are pursuing the guardsmen, aren't really Cajuns, although the guardsmen, whose view of the natives of the area is quite simplistic, classes them all as "Cajuns." (thanks to Linda Coleman for this observation) Rather violent.

	Movies I have recently watched (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		This is a light and entertaining movie about a woman who, tired of feeling unappreciated, decides to take a week's vacation from her family.
		Part of the movie is alternately in blue and yellow monochrome, because the characters have crashed on a desert planet with two suns, and the cinematography is quite imaginative.
		There is the police officer who turns out to be a mercenary addicted to morphine, the pilot who begins the movie by almost killing all the passengers to save her own life, and the brandy-drinking British antique dealer who dies in a spectacularly horrific scene, among others.

	Movie Habit: Darwin Day Movies
		What Darwin Day list could be complete without this classic retelling of the 1925 Scopes trial, the legal battleground of the American schoolteacher who was arrested for teaching evolution.
		The last section, presented documentary-style and set in modern times (i.e., the early 1920s) explains that all the symptoms of witchcraft — kleptomania, pyromania, sleepwalking, and insensitive areas on the back — can be attributed to a common disease known as “hysteria.” For an 80-year old movie, that’s not too bad.
		The movie asks the question by dropping a schoolful of boys on an uninhabited island.

		As I mentioned in my original posting, this was a list I came up with in 1999, providing what I'd consider to be the most important common cultural touchstones in films from the 20th century.
		There are 5 movies on this list which I have told myself that I will never see under any circumstances.
		Even considering that about 80 percent of movies are crap, and another 15 percent are somewhat worthwhile, that leaves hundreds and hundreds of terrific movies to be seen.

		Set in the final year of the Spanish Civil War, as Franco's fascist forces are poised to seize control of the nation, the movie follows young Carlos after he's dropped off for safe-keeping at an orphanage in the middle of nowhere.
		The kids, meanwhile, suffer from an allergy to direct sunlight, so the house is always shuttered and suffused with a muted, soft light that in itself is hugely spooky and suggestive of all sorts of (quite probably awful) secrets.
		There are an awful lot of people who hate this movie, and if jerky hand-held camera action, zero narrative and a sudden ending that seems to resolve nothing are the sorts of things that bother you, then you're probably not a fan.

		But as color processes improved and became as affordable as fl-and-white film, more and more movies were filmed in color after the end of World War II, as the industry in America came to view color an essential to attracting audiences in its competition with television, which remained a fl-and-white medium until the mid-60s.
		However, the cataclysmic failure of some heavily-promoted movies that were harshly reviewed, as well as the unexpected success of critically praised independent movies indicates that extreme critical reactions can have considerable influence.
		There are a few movies every year that defy this rule, often limited-release movies that start in only a few theaters and actually grow their theater count through good word-of-mouth and reviews.

		After a series of setbacks, by the early ‘30s, he was a has-been, living with his wife and children in a basement apartment and working on the docks (when work could be found).
		The movie, which can be enjoyed on any number of levels, speaks of temptation, sin and redemption.

	ACLU-TN Goes to the Movies - American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee
		The Long Walk Home (1990) - This movie is a dramatization of the 1955 Montgomery, Alabama, bus boycott, told from the perspective of an African-American housekeeper who walks to work in solidarity with the movement despite the respectful treatment she receives from her white employer.
		Miss Evers’ Boys (1997) - This made-for-TV movie dramatizes the true story of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study of the 1930s, in which fl men participating in a government study were deceived by physicians and purposely not treated for syphilis in order to observe the natural progression of the disease.

	Chicago Reader Movie Review
		I limit my list of candidates to films that have screened in Chicago, but I could easily fill it with movies that haven't screened in the U.S. at all, and God knows what I've missed altogether.
		Surprised at how much I liked it, I decided it probably belonged on my list, but then some industry executives decided that only the people in New York and Los Angeles should get to see it this year (in time for Oscar nominations), not the less discriminating moviegoers in the Chicago boondocks.
		Part two turns folkloric and allegorical as the soldier travels through a dark forest, alternately stalking and being stalked by his lover in the form of a tiger spirit, with a talking baboon offering sage advice.

	Film History of the 1920s
		She had been a child star, and had worked at Biograph as a bit actress in 1909, and only ten years later was one of the most influential figures in Hollywood at Paramount.
		She was boosted to Paramount Studios' super-stardom in the late 1920s by more publicity campaigns, fan magazine glamorization, and rumor-spreading.
		But by 1933, after years of victimizing exploitation, she had gone into serious decline and retired due to hard-drinking, exhaustion, gambling, emotional problems, a poor choice of roles, the revelation of a heavy working-class Brooklyn accent in the talkies, and a burgeoning weight problem.

	Miller's Crossing - ALL-TIME 100 movies - TIME
		The one movie I feel should have definitely made the list (of top 3 movies, let alone 100), is Seven Samurai.
		Dextrously flipping and reheating old movie genres like so many pancakes, they serve them up fresh, not with syrup but with a coating of comic arsenic.
		Albert Finney runs a corrupt town in the 1920s, Gabriel Byrne is a brainy sort sometimes allied with Finney, and a stellar lineup of eccentrics (John Turturro, Steve Buscemi, Jon Polito) fills in the background of this marvelous, and pretty serious, fresco.

	Internet Modern History Sourcebook: Modern History in the Movies
		A dreadful movie in which a German director takes an event from the Nazi occupation of France (the killing of the French inhabitants of Oradour by lokcing them up in a church and setting fire to it) and attrivutes it to a Nazified British army.
		The movie is historically inaccurate, and focuses on racial distrust.
		The film is interesting in that, unlike even British movies that are critical of the Raj, it is not at all nostalgic about British rule.

		However another more popularexplanation is that the term was first derived from the crowds of people that flocked to queue up for George Lucas's 'Star Wars'in May 1977, and who gathered over several city blocks, hence the term came into existence.
		The term can apply to other productions besides plays (which are rarely successful and often lose money), such as musicals, movies and novels andmultimillion selling computer/console game titles.
		In a looser sense, itmay mean any big-budget Hollywood movie with famous stars that dominates publicattention, even if the movie is a dud.
