Good Will Hunting

This is an extraordinary film I think anyways. It had a good story line and a good theme. It was a story about someone not realizing what they have until the last minute and going after it. The article ' Two thumbs up, five stars and an Oscar?' states that it is about a misunderstood and undiscovered genius. Will Hunting does not care if he is talented because it comes easy to him and won't allow others to try and push him into a life where he supposedly "belongs" as they try to tell him. He came from a troubled childhood and that is what he knows it reality and cant contemplate the fact that there are other paths that he can take instead of working construction for the rest of his life. He sees nothing wrong with the way he is living and doesn't want to be cast out because he can absorb knowledge the way he does. I liked this movie and feel that it has a good point behind it, my point of it may be different than yours but it is still a point that is made.

On the Waterfront

This is a revolutionary movie because of the history that comes before it. It generated alot of controversy relating to previous happenings with the films director. Waterfront is a film about defiance and respect at the same time. While conflict that occurs in the movie is between everyone in the town it is set in. Terry Malloy ( Marlon Brando) has a love for his fellow co-workers in the mob but also for a Edie. Blind by love Terry has a revolation as to who he is and why he treats people the way he does. It is a movie about a journey or a transformation if you will on someone's character and how it changes his world and everyone's around him aswell.

Casablanca

A legend in films Casablanca is one of the most quoted movies of all time. A lot of the expressions we use today are from this picture. The classic line " Here's looking at you kid." has been one of the most memorable lines in history. I believe this movie is telling the most universal story which any audience can comprehend. A love triangle between three people, who have very different view points about almost everything. Who are constantly reminded of their past. The main character Rick is often reminded of his lost love when hearing a certain song. From the article ' Play it Again and Again' it is said that Casablanca is the most familiar film in American history. Which i believe to be true, it is a wonderful epic movie about love, war, and resolution.
