The Great Depression’s impact

/in /by

If films often reflect the values, attitudes, hopes, and fears of the societies that make them, we should be able to measure the impact FDR and the New Deal had on the nation through the films of the 1930s. How is that impact evident in the ways “I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang” (1932) and “The Grapes of Wrath” (1940) explain the success and failure of their protagonists?

Scenario: Culture, Psychology, and Community

Imagine an international organization has approached you to help resolve an inter-group conflict. You are an authority in cross-cultural psychology and have been asked to serve as a consultant based on a recent violent conflict involving a refugee community in your town and a local community organization. In the days, weeks, and months leading up to the violent conflict, there were incidents of discrimination and debates regarding the different views and practices people held about work, family, schools, and religious practice. Among the controversies has been the role of women’s participation in political, educational, and community groups.

2002 Chicago Movie

/in /by

While viewing Rob Marshall’s 2002 film adaptation of the Ebb/Fosse/Kander script, I’d like you to think about the ways this adaptation plays with conventions set by the musical’s book, considers social issues most present for its audiences, and challenges/disturbs/omits/alters some of what that 1975 telling found most significant to highlight.

In an essay of 750-1250 words, compare the text of Ebb/Fossee/Kander with that crafted by Marshall in his visual adaptation for the screen. Consider both the thematic/literary elements highlighted by the director and his cast and the mechanical or physical ability of the film to stress (or decenter) elements in the script. You may choose to do this in the manner of the critic – considering comparison in a subjective judgment similar to that of the Tony Award committee – or in the manner of the scholar of culture – considering the relevance of the film adaptation to the cultural space in which it was produced for a specific (American) audience.
