In 2009, The Blind Side took hold of both the big screen and the hearts of American families. Since its debut, the movie has won 7 awards, as well as an Oscar. This inspirational movie fits into multiple categories: drama, comedy, sports, but most importantly biography.

Although being the brains behind a two-person operation Daly’s partner, James Walton, comes off to the workers as a charismatic masculine playboy, causing Daly to disappear behind the shadow of his counterpart. While the relatable nature of Daly makes most of the show 's audience feel for him, it is quickly proven that the viewer 's compassion has been misplaced. While Walton originally comes off as man dripping with toxic masculinity and entitlement- it is Daly who is the antagonist of the show.

Looking back on this movie, there were numerous instances that I really felt the religious impact of the film, and the search that the main character was on. From going back home from the war and all that happened, to living normal life again, and then going to various places looking for something. It was a pure aspect of searching for a higher calling, or looking for explanations that are not available to the every day person. How The Razor’s Edge depicted Hinduism was a little soft in my opinion, it is not an in your face kind of religion like some of them out there. It did however, really bring into light the various degrees that one must go when you are walking the path in search for a higher power.

According to Maier, “It is evident that the selection of shots from the film influences the viewer to adopt certain evaluative viewpoints in the first place” (Maier 166). The shot described near the beginning of the paragraph can cause viewers to pick or select a certain viewpoint regarding the situation in the shot. It may cause viewers to develop an opinion about the Tuohy family and their kind gesture or about Michael’s non-existent family and their unsupportive ways.

When the film The Sixth Sense, directed by Night Shyamalan debuted in 1999, it mesmerized audiences near and far with its appealing paranormal plot, its deceptive nature and its top-shelf talent from its actors. The film was immensely prosperous and quickly became a cultural phenomenon. However, most casual moviegoers overlooked its underlying philosophical significance.

It baffles me to see how these men, women, and children were treated as animals. I ask the question, how could these owner treat the slaves like this and not have any regrets or fears as to what would happen to them when they die. It also made me think on the slaves who were not born slaves that came from Africa who did know the language, customs, and how they were up rooted from their lives. I always thought that slaves were separated from their families because one of the family members did wrong. This film taught me that that was not always the reason some slave owners sold members of the slave families just because they could.

I don’t believe that this film expresses any political view. I believe that image, speech, sound, music, and writing interact to produce meaning. They are all in sync with one another, but I believe writing dominates because the film is based off of a novel. The facial expressions and speech of the younger actors add to the film, evoking emotion and sympathy from the viewer. The novel emphasizes the spectator more so than in the film.
