pOst 5 - 3 shOrt films

(if your looking for decent short films/eppisodes to watch, go to www.clarkandmichael.com it is so freaking good.)

With the following vids, I chose them for various reasons. I do Film History and we have been discussing the different styles of films that have been created over the years. We have discussed montage films which emmerged around 1918, and became rather popular as it showed various independent shots. The shots did not necessarily come together to make a story, in fact they usually were of different locations, allowing the viewer to see various parts of the world :)
AND THEN!! I chose a 'slasher film' because these types of films took a while to come to cinemas, and when they did, audiences were horrified!!! 'Psycho' and 'The Exorcist' were films which horrified their audiences.
AND THEN!!!!! I chose a classic silent black and white. This is for obvious reasons.. Because silent black and whites were the first films. They amazed audiences (LOL I KNOW). People would flock to cafes in Paris to be one of the first people to witness 'films' that were simply very short (15sec) black and white clips.
AND THEN!!!!!!!! i put up an extra vid 'Please!' for you to watch. It has Gerrard Butler on it!! If you're like me, and think he is bloody gorgeous, you'll watch this film.
Here they are:


LOVEFIELD (I chose this one because it looks like a slasher film! They took a while to come out to cinemas.. around 1960!)






SNAP (This reminds me of when they used to make montage films... way back in 1922. Lev Kuleshov got together with some Russian filmmakers... and yea. Montage baby!)






PLEASE! (i KNOW it does go over the 10min max. but i thought id put it up as an extra vid if your interested... only because i liked it so much. So basically, this has nothing to do with anything).






VINCENT (I chose this short film because it reminds me of when movies were done in black and white and characters did not speak.. Back in the day...early 1900's)
