The movie Dances with Wolves main genre is western, it’s a western genre because it deals with Indians, and usually with western movies the main plot is fighting for land or man vs man, and horses/animals. The music in Dances with Wolves is usually dramatic, especially with the part where Dances with Wolves is dancing around the fire and chanting. There is also a scene when Dances with Wolves is going to leave the Indians and while he is leaving, sad slow music starts up. Another scene is some kind of happy tune while Dances with Wolves is getting married and time passes by throughout winter . The acting really impressed me, Stands with a Fist, her pretending she didn’t know English very well, it had me fooled. The music was really intriguing also, it dealt a lot with emotion also, and the directing was amazing, everything about the movie, I liked it a lot. My overall take on the film on a scale 1-10 I’d give it a 8 it was really good, actors were good, plot was good but original. 

In Chariots of Fire, the acting was okay, personally I didn’t like the main character and he ran, it was kind of goofy too me.  The five points covered in class, it was pretty good, I’m not sure if the main character was popular in Hollywood at the time, but that’s probably why they used some budget on some nobody. The music in Chariots of Fire was really good; it made me feel the feeling it was supposed to do to the audience. It was really beautiful music, and it was perfect in the moments of the movie. The editing would use a L Cut, you could hear the music at the beginning of one scene, and it would transition from another scene, but you could still hear the music, and it matched the circumstances.  The theme of the movie is just to prove their selves. One man is devoted to God, and another man is Jewish. The camera movement throughout the movie would me a wide shot, and you would just watch them run around. I have no idea why this movie won the Oscar for best picture in 1981, because I thought this was the most boring movie ever. I mean I love running, I love sports, but this movie was really confusing, and I had no idea what was actually going on the whole time. I didn’t even know who the main character was. 

The diegetic sounds in Rocky are a lot. Diegetic sound is what you hear on the screen and can see them.  One of them is when Rocky is hitting a piece of meat, and you can see him hitting the meat and the sound of meat getting beat. Other sounds are when Creed and Rocky are in the ring and hitting each other and you can hear them hitting each other. Non-diegetic sounds are sounds playing in the background but you can’t see them on the screen. Some examples is when you hear the crowd booing and cheering while rocky is in the ring. Another one is when you can hear the train on the tracks while rocky is on the streets. Also when Rocky was in the locker room you can hear other people boxing and jump roping. The theme of the film is never giving up. The film was well received in 1975-1976 because they made an amazing movie that made Sylvester Stallone famous. Some save the cat moments are when Rocky makes the young girl go home instead of smoking and getting in trouble. Another is when Rocky is nice to Aiden after her brother was being so rude to her, and when Rocky credits his friend on T.V.
