    Moulin Rogue as a postmodern film

    of course its a postmodern film, its a montage of filmic eras and 'spectacle' through the ages - despite being set in the late 1800's/early 1900's its main focus points are on different eras in film history. take for instance the role of satnine - she pasty as anything; but she was picked for...

    Need a bit of help with something

    Could you look at magic in terms of the essence of trickery in relation to religion ? I had this from a lecture a few months ago Primitive man was enslaved to magic; luck, good and bad, entered into all the affairs of life. At first, these luck petitions were monologues--just a kind of...

    Why did Freud Abandon his Seduction theory?

    fair enough to that its not a good MW question - any other ideas based around philosophy or philosophers? theyre my main interest - history in itself doesnt particularly phase me to be honest. Thanks ! Kaitlin

    Which Idea Is Better! Please Help!

    While the first one seems more practicle for a society and culture pip - im inclined to suggest you dont rule anything out on the basis that it is too much. We are young and with not many chances to have a say - so if this is where you get to express yourself then i say do it. be that your first...

    PIP cross-cultural component

    although your focus is on adolescent rites of passage in terms of their social liberties i think an aspect to take into account is education; because even though while we're young it seems a prison it is our rite of passge to presumably greater things. just a though - but deffinately a...

    Pip Help!

    Thats a really broad and politic based topic. I think when looking at something politically influential as the environment it's important to take into account not what we ARE or AREN'T doing about it but peoples preceptions towards the action or lack of action taken to right the wrong [or as...

    Topic to Broad? What is your opinion on my PIP topic?

    I agree that it might be too broad and that you could either - (a) decide on one paradigme under which to make the comparison or (b) make chapters and have the analysis of attitudes relatively shallow. Either way what kept nudging at me while I was reading your brief was that I think it would...

    PIP Survey: Socio-economic status and teenagers

    Hey, Firstly just thought I'd say hey - because my topic seems fairly similar to yours and it's always useful to be in touch with someone of similar interests etc. I'll let you know what mines about and see what you think - I'm looking at fine arts -namely the ballet - as a social barometre...

    4u HELP

    This is a cry for help to any-one doing 4u English - or anyone who has done 4u English. I'm STUCK for a concept like you have NO idea. I started with a critical analysis of the Red Curtain Trilogy, which proved to be tooo massive. So I cut that down to looking at Moulin Rogue on its own - but...

    I'm trying to start my critical response for 4u - and I don't know where to start :S any idea? I know I want to look at post modernism in Luhrmans red curtain trilogy - but even thats waaay too broad. I want to look at 'structure' of post modern filmic techniques; as the themes and concepts...
