Week 3 EOC #2: News of the Oscars
With political tensions subsuming the country’s
collective mood, “Hidden Figures” and “La La Land” appeal to viewers
because they’re human stories brought to life in bright colors with catchy
music and plots that don’t put you through the ringer.

Week 2 EOC: the Deeper Meaning to Swingers
The
deeper meaning of the movie is the like they said when talking about the
beautiful girls that come to Los Angeles, it is a community / area of the world
where everyone is on a constant grind to get where they're going. In a world
where who you know is the most important thing you can watch as people go out
there and try to meet all the right connections. The fact that Mikey is new to
this and is in the middle of a break up, highlights the struggle that people
face when they are unfocused at the task at hand. This is shown very clearly in
there Las Vegas trip, as Mikey assumes that a mere waitress won't actually know
what it takes to get a gig as a comedian. Instead he is thrown back as he
realizes what he thought would go over her head was something she was all too
familiar with. Showcasing the fact that everyone you meet is usually some way
shape or form connected to the industry at hand. Showing Mikey's struggle to
separate his personal and his professional, visually shown when he is out with
his cousin and his friend that focus on the roles that they've gotten only to
shift over to his other friends who care about nothing else at the moment then
the girls sitting right in front of them. The fact of the matter is they
all agree that Mikey is in fact “money”, but he just doesn’t see it. Well in my
opinion he isn’t noticing it because he’s to busy sitting on both sides of the
fence, if he were to sit down and focus on each side he would realize he has it
pretty good, a fact that is finally brought to his attention when he meets the
girl at the end of the movie when she uses his own words against him.
