Her Way (1929)

Rather than following in the footsteps of poorly made horror flicks, “The Quiet Place” follows original concept.

The social issues The Half of it takes on are handled well, between the antagonization brought on to Ellie for her race and the conflict that arises from her being gay. Both aspects of her character are built up over the course of the film and don’t seem abrupt or rushed. The film shows racism towards Ellie and her and father in varying levels, from having her schoolmates specifically address her as "Chinese girl” to the fore mentioned way her Dad is treated due to language barriers. The same can be said about Ellie being a lesbian. While she never truly “comes out” in the narrative, that does not undermine her journey of self-discovery from being meaningful. These ideas aren’t thrust upon the viewer in a preachy manor, the scenarios that occur feel believable given the rural setting. The film presents watchers with problems whom those like Ellie may face, and leaves us to sit with them and reflect.

An attempt to capture nostalgia that unfortunately just doesn’t work

Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 film "Pyscho" is an American film classic that still resonates today.

Endgame not only did not drop the ball, but it delivered for fans so much that it went on to become the highest-grossing movie of all time!

Films can alleviate alienation by presenting realities where the viewers feelings are shared by onscreen characters. The film 'Shrek' can be interpreted as a transgender story.
