One of the interesting things about the writing of John Steinbeck is the way in which such an ostensibly egalitarian writer condescends toward so many of the characters in his novels. The life story of four peasants was told by a writer with a cheerful sense of humor and at the same time was permeated by a sad sympathy for ordinary people, who were noble, honest, faithful to each other, but did not find their place in life. Even though those people live a simple (even poor) life, they are happy, because they are not suffocating from the spirit ...

Larry Gopnik was an ordinary, average ‘good man’ who tried to live an ethical life while advancing his mediocre life as a physics professor, when his personal and professional life fall apart on him completely. Nothing makes sense or has meaning any more, and Larry struggles to find out why all these disasters have occurred to him. No one can tell him why, though, not even the rabbis at the synagogue. It just seems that God and the universe are completely arbitrary and unjust, and Epicurus would have told him this was because there was no God. There was no ...

Blood Diamond: From Political Conflict to Film

Over the years, there have been many motion pictures that have depicted political conflict. The influences of politics are among elements that influence and shape the development of national identity in various countries (Fuller, 2006). It wouldn’t be wrong to assume that development of cultures and identities of such countries are also orchestrated by the prevalence for political conflict. Can the same be said about cinema, especially motion pictures? In motion pictures, politics has always been a key element. Thomas ‘Tip’ O’Neill had once famously said that “‘all politics are local’ one might readily assume that motion pictures ...

In the case of a young man growing up in a culture in which he is not the ethnic majority, developing identity can be even more complicated, as he has his own cultural identity to contend ...

Leon Uris’ Battle Cry is the product of an era in which patriotism and service to one’s country were the highest ideals. World War II was, after all, the “good war,” a fight for survival against an ideology diametrically opposed to the principles of Democracy.

Uris’ war opus is equal parts Marine rouser and combat-chronicle-cum-soap opera. As such, it helped establish a literary paradigm that Hollywood would mine exhaustively for decades, supplying a stream of movie ...
