After leaving class on Tuesday, I couldn't help but think what the hell did I just watch? Cars, aliens, drugs - I was very confused. However, I didn't totally hate the movie and after reading the articles and the discussions on Thursday all helped me to understand it more. The first thing I want to talk about is the youth culture. I thought it was interesting that we compared it to the Wild Ones. I also thought that the movie Wild Ones was less violent then Repo Man. There was definitely more shootings and deaths in this movie. I also thought that Wild Ones considered themselves as 'badasses' with little respect to anyone or anything, whereas in Repo Man, even though mainstream society might call them badasses, the kids themselves didn't think of themselves like that. It seemed that they didn't want to or care to be known as anything. They were who they were and no one was going to change that. Even though they didn't consider themselves anything, they didn't want to be part of the mainstream 80's society. In doing so however, there were so many of them who felt this way that it actually became part of the mainstream society. It was normal in the 80's to be part of this 'punk' crowd now. I thought it was also different how in this movie, no one had any sympathy for anyone in the movie. The characters really didn't even seem to care about what happened to them. Otto, would take on these cars who had owners that were bad guys or would carry guns around and walk into the situation like nothhing. Even when people are being shot and dying, there still is no sympathy for anyone.
There were so many times throughout the movie where I either just had no idea where it was going or thought I knew and it went in a completely different direction. I kept thinking that it was going to get more into the drug scene, or more about Otto growing up with this new job. Then when we meet the girl, I automatically thought that they would hit it off into a somewhat love story. Fail. Not only did they not even close to fall in love but she's working for the government I think and what's even worse is she's the one who is electricuting him. Would never have seen any of that coming, let alone to end the movie with a flying car.
It was clear to me that a lot of the movie was driven by consumerism. Basically the entire 'plot' of the movie is everyone is out to get this Malibu that is worth $20,000. It seems that this is the only thing anyone really does care about and no one really cares what they have to do to get there. Selling out friends, killing people, it's all about the car which equals the money. There are also numerous parts of this movie that are seen as satirical. One would of course be when the one kid is dying and blaming society - obviously funny. One part that goes along with consumerism though that I thought was funny, was the fact that in one scene that had just taken a car and were driving down the highway. Otto had found presents in the back seat and starts to throw them out the window. What they don't know is that the packages were filled with cash. Which is very funny and satirical seeing that this movie is largly about consumerism. It was also interesting that the alien sub plot didn't seem to faze anyone at all. In past decades, people would be running for the hills hiding out, but not here. They couldn't have cared less about the aliens or have given them a second though, it was all about the car and the money.
Moving on to the articles - postmodernism is definitly seen in this movie. There is a complete collapse of distinction between almost everything. They have no values, no meaning, no prpose, but is all somehow satirical. This is all seen here by the characters lack of care for anyone else and who have no values. No one cares what happens or how it happens - as long as they get he car. Also, with the scene where the kid is dying (which in its self is funny) is going on and on with his last dying breath about how society is to blame and how society shaped him into the life that he had. This was just laughable. He was just looking for a way out - someone to put the blame on because of course it wasn't his fault. No one wanted responsibility and would look anywhere to blame - even society.
Reagan. It was interesting what he did for that time. It seemed that now the 50's were deemed the 'golden years' - the amazing years where everyone was happy and the times that they wanted to get back to. With this, he also brought back the fear of bombs and communism. Only now, the bombs were more high tech, and could kill people but leave buildings perfectly unharmed. However, the fears were not taken seriously. Everything was a big joke and no one cared that something serious could actually happen. They now didn't have one main enemy where everyone could come together to fight.
These are some of the main things that defined the 80's, other then of course, the million and a half teen high school movies. Even though I couldn't relate to any part of the movie, somehow I didn't hate it at all, and thought it was a good way to show postmodernism.

Apocalpse Now
I guess I want to start by saying that after all the horror movies I've watched, this movie really creeped me out. I know a little bit about the Vietnam war, and none of it's pretty. My dad served two terms over in Cambodia, and very rarely talks about it. When asked, you can tell that it's something he doesn't want to talk about and when he came home, he was never exactly the same. I know how much it scared him, and on top of the movie being already creepy, neither one helped at all. It also doesn't help, that through classes and media I already had my own opinions of the war and none of them are good. For some reason, if I think of WWII I think of yay we won and not horribly bad things. However, whenever I think of Vietnam, I think of horrible bloodshed deep in the woods - kind of right along the lines of what the movie showed us.
The first two things that really jumped out to me was the music and the visuals of the movie. I kept thinking that if I have a halloween party next year, i'm buying the soundtrack to this movie. The background music made the movie extra creepy. The Doors, Rollingstones, and other bands who had music in the movie all had great mood setting music. Minus the song "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" I can't remember one other upbeat song. Even when the background showed the lights that made it look like a carnaval, it wasn't lighthearted carnival music, it was creepy evil clown music. Also, throughout the entire movie I thought the visuals were really interesting. I'm not sure if it was the loud music, the bigger screen, or what but this movie made me feel like I was almost there. At different times I actually got really into the movie like it was really happening. Even though annoying at times, I think I liked the movie being played louder to really set the mood for the movie. I thought the sceens with the helicopters flying were visual appealing along with a lot of the other sceens. I'm not sure why, if it was the camera angle or whatnot, but I couldn't get my eyes off the screen.
One of the sceens I want to mention was where they brought in the playboy girls to put on a show for the soldiers. I couldn't help but notive their outfits - cowboy, indian, and a female version of uncle sam. I don't think it was ironic that these were the outfits they were wearing. Also, the whole sceen just seemed like the soldiers and lost control. Even during the fighting and shooting no one really went crazy but as soon as the girls started dancing they were screaming and jumping all over the place. It really did seem like this was not for entertainment purposes rather more for getting them hyped up about fighting. The girls were only on stage for a matter of minutes before the men started jumping each other and taking over the stage. It seemed that they had all their energy back and then some, to go out and fight. (I also like the big Playboy bunny stamped on the helicopter.)
The reading as well as class touched on the subject of "playing God". I'm not sure how I feel about this. I don't think anyone should be assigned with having to 'play God', but I guess soldiers basically have this job. They ultimately have the choice of who is going to live or not. One specific example of this that came to my mind is when they are going up the river and they stop the other boat that they really didn't have to stop. Not only did they not have to stop, but they really didn't have to shoot anyone on the boat. They didn't do anything wrong and because of the soldiers they ultimately lost their lives. So in this aspect, I guess they do get to play God.
Another sceen that really stuck out to me was when the animal (bull, ox... i'm not sure) and Kurtz were both being killed. I thought there were a few reasons that they made the film like this. One, would be that they didn't want to show the whole bloodshed sceen so much. Another would be though, how symbolic it was to kill him and the animal at the same time. From being in Cambodia for so long and living in the jungle, it's almost like Kurtz himself had become animalistic and losing a lot of his human instincts. Cutting off the heads of people and the other horrific things he did seem very savage and not humanly.
Theres many other things I could mention but I'll leave it here. I overall liked the movie but it really did creep me out and give me an even better idea what it was really like for the Vietnam war. The movie really opened my eyes to how horrific war can be and how mentally straining it can really be on a person.

The Stepford Wives
I really liked this movie and thought it was interesting. From the start there were a few things that were apparent. One of them, being that the first woman neighbor they meet who comes over to offer food acts like a zombie (or robot). She is very soft spoken, well mannered, and was just there to do her job. She wouldn't even go over to the house when he offered. The worst thing was her apparent blank stare. The camera would zoom in on her face and you could tell that it seemed like there was nothing there behind her eyes. She was just like a robot. The second thing I noticed quickly was that this new town they moved to was clearly middle to upper class white suburban neighborhood. It seems that they all are very close knit and everyone seems to know what is going on.
I think that there were a lot of sterotypical housewives stuff throughout the movie. It seemed that most of the women were always working around the house doing something. When they were trying to gather the women for their group, all the women they were trying to recruit were home either cleaning, doing dishes, or doing laundry. They all dressed basically the same. Lots of makeup, and very nice flattering dresses to look good for their husbands. Their mannerisms were interesting too. They were very soft, well spoken and never questioned or argued with anyone. This seems all very sterotypical with the women in the house with their aprons on never questioning anyone or anything, just doing as they are supposed to do. Also being more broad, the women were just supposed to stay home clean and take care of the children and the men were the ones who got off free. They could basically do what they wanted, could come and go as they please, and were the ones who had the jobs.
It seemed that most of these roles were a trap and dehumanizing. The men had the life. They could come and go as they please, had their own mens club, had their jobs, and had the women do all the work for them. They basically would expect to come home to a clean house, with dinner on the table. The men completely benefitted from all of this. This was all free labor that was just expected to be done everyday. These roles were also very dehumanizing for the women. All the women did the same thing: cook, clean, and take care of the kids. They had no idividuality. They could not speak for themselves or doing anything that would 'upset' these roles for the women. Also, they have no personalities or attributes. They're just expected to act and talk a certain way and all the housewives act the same.
It's also interesting how the housewives have no time. I like how the article talks about by the time they get up, take care of the kids all day, cook, clean, etc. they get it all done just in time to go to bed to get up and do it again the next day. It's this never ending cycle that they can never get out of. There is always something to clean or cook. The days turn into weeks turn into years. Same thing over and over everyday. The housewives have nothing to look forward to. They seem to be stuck in time and not be able to move forward. Since they barely have enough time to get their housework done in the day, they definitely don't have time to start any sort of womens organizations or do anything else that they would want to do. Until they start doing something out, they are just going to stuck in time.
So directly about the movie, it was interesting how after about four months and a drawing later, all the women start to act like the sterotypical housewives. It's apparent in the movie that after you start to meet some of these characters a lot of the women are the same. They all have that vacant expression in their eyes and they seem just like zombies. One thing that I found really intersting was that near the end of the movie, she was hiding in her bedroom and they show the door right before she comes out. The door had the shadows of maybe the staircase on the door which made it look like she was in a prison cell. I thought this was ironic because she basically could be in prison. She's about to be turned into a robot zombie who is only going to do what her husband says and all the housewife stuff she was running away from.
I also couldn't help but notice all the similarites between two other movies: Invasion of the Body Snatchers and Rosemary's Baby. In Invasion of the Body Snatchers, both movies had characters who were running from a 'zombie' person who was going to be taking over their real body and transforming into the zombie body. Both movies had people taking care of the other bodies getting them ready for when the time came for them to take over. For Rosemary's Baby, I can't remember the name of this (if anyone does remember let me know please!) but it's basically the fear of something normal, an everyday thing. Just like the pregnancy in Rosemary's Baby, and now being a housewife, something that people do everyday can become something terrifying. Also, in both movies people who are close to them like both of their husbands are in on the whole thing and both women have no one to turn to. What happens when you have no one to turn to because everyone is in on it? That's scary.
Theres more I could go on about but the one last thing I wanted to mention was the movie making the movie out to be a negative image of a housewife. Is it really such a bad thing? I don't think I would mind staying home cooking all day; I love food. However, it is true that I would go insane doing the same thing day in and day out. It wouldn't go fun to have to watch everything you said and do as you are told. I don't think that it was as bad as they made it, and that some women actually injoyed doing all the housewife work. I'm sure there were women out there who totally hated it though and this is where the movie came in.

Manchurian Candidate
I'm not even sure where to begin with this movie, however I guess I can start with the fact that I honestly really liked this movie. The first thing I thought when the movie was over however was, well if he didn't shoot his mom I would have. Mrs. Iselin is one of those charcters that I honestly wanted to punch through the screen. From the first scene with her I could tell that she was going to be a problem character and that I wasn't going to like her. Anyways, besides me disliking the main character I never saw this ending coming and thought it was a great movie that kept me guessing till the end. I didn't like the fact that he shot himself because over the course of the movie I grew to like his character and pretty much felt bad for him and everything that he went through.
The whole idea of brainwashing people is interesting to me. Theoretically I feel like it would be very hard almost near impossible to actually brainwash someone. There was a story on the news the other day about kids being brainwashed which I could see happening. They were young and didn't know any better. Kids will believe almost anything. What I don't understand is how adults can be brainwashed and especially be made to do things along the lines of killing people. Furthermore, to be influnced by a queen of diamonds is just crazy to me. This is however, one of the parts of the movie that I thought was really cool. Not that I approve of brainwashing people to kill others, but the idea of it for good rather then evil is interesting. I thought about what I would do if I could brainwash someone - some funny joke or prank like everytime you hear or see the number 3, you have to cluck like a chicken. I don't know, but that sounds fun to me.
Anyways, there was so many things that I could point out in this movie that were completely ironic. One major one being that the husband John is a republican running for vice president and his wife is a communist. Do I really need to say much more about this? However, I feel like she is a confused communist because she's on their side but then again at the end explains how she is going after all of them when she's in power. She's crazy. I thought it was also ironic how after this movie comes out that Kennedy is assassinated. I can see how someone would get the idea from this movie.
The reading was interesting also. I skimmed some of it, but the ideas of Momism and demonology were actually interesting to read about. Mrs Iselin is a complete fit for the idea of Momism. She is very controling (not only literally with his actions but who he can/can't marry etc.) and she is 100% corrupting America by being in the communist party and trying to take over. She also controls her husband who in the beginning I didn't care for but realized he is just another prop in her game. In this movie she is portrayed as the demon. The deomonology aspect is interesting too how there are different parts to it and the idea of having to protect the mother and how the white family again was in danger.
Overall I really liked this movie, I could have gone into a lot about politics but I try to stay out of that as much as I can. This movie was interesting though in the way it was presented and how not many people saw that ending coming.

Atomic Cafe
This movie brought out a lot of different emotions for me. Not only did I think that the movie was funny and ironic, but it was also at times very disturbing. Same went for the article. One of the main things that stood out to me was how ridiculous most of this all sounded. A lot of the movie was dedicated to a variety of different ways that people could try to stay safe in the event of an actual nuclear attack. The "duck and cover" method is obviously the most ridiculous. If you are living within a ten mile radius -or more, ducking and covering is going to do nothing to help you. It also became almost popular and culturally accepted to build a bomb shelter in your backyard. Not only is this something that shouldn't be considered popular, but once again, depending on location it could be a lot of wasted money. Most of these ideas the government came up with as a way to calm the fears of the people so there was mass freaking out. It was stupid for most of these people to believe this also, but they needed someone/something to turn to. So what would you do? I would have probably done the same thing. (Maybe minus the duck and cover).
It also talked a lot in the article about the suberbs and how they came about. It's interesting to hear that they started because a city was a "target area" so they wanted to disperse the population. This isn't neccessarily a bad idea but again, depending on location its not going to matter where the people move to. They also mentioned building highways for people to be able to evacuate the area. I kept thinking though that if they are close enough that they need to evacuate (say if a bomb was actually set off) they probably shouldn't even bother because they have been exposed to the radiation and that's something that no amount of distance can take care of.
In the article and in the movie it talked not only about being able to survive in a fall out shelter but being able to live one. The thought of actually living in one is creepy enough but the image of a woman cleaning the place and adding some special touches is just disturbing (and kinda funny). I thought it was interesting how they mentioned also that its not only enough to be in the shelter but that you need protection from outside intruders also. They mentioned how people outside might try to force their way into a shelter for safety and the famiyl must be prepared. Even letting one person into the shelter will take up oxygen, space, food, etc. and how much is the faily willing to sacrifice to help others?
My very favorite part of the article though was a quote that read, "My mother tells me that my father's whole response to the Cuban Missle Crisis was to purchase a handgun." haha! What the hell is a gun going to help in a nuclear attack?? If anything the gun would provide a sense of safety but realistically not going to help with anything.
Theres much more I could mention about this movie like the different types of women and all the new words that came about which I find ironic (bombshell, bikini, etc.) and how they were (and still are) used in everyday life. I really liked this movie and found it very interesting!

Theres much more I could mention about this movie like the different types of women and all the new words that came about which I find ironic (bombshell, bikini, etc.) and how they were (and still are) used in everyday life. I really liked this movie and found it very interesting!
