		<title>Vertigo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow, that was simply amazing.  I&#8217;m going to be honest, though.  I&#8217;ve seen Vertigo twice before this class and I hated it both times.  It seemed like a movie about a horrible detective (I mean he follows her very closely all the time and stands no more than 20 feet away from [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s Wrong With Landscapes?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Eben seems to have a comfort zone when it comes to landscapes.  They are &#8220;safe.&#8221;  A landscape can&#8217;t look at the picture you painted and say, &#8220;I look like that?&#8220;  Is there life in a landscape?  As a photographer/filmmaker, I think there is.  A landscape is easy to compose because not much is moving in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Puttin&#8217; The Soul in Soul Mate</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s amazing how many different concepts of love there are.  It was mentioned in a previous blog that there are numerous perspectives of the essence of a soul mate, and that arguing about it is not productive.  I would agree up to a certain point.  The fact that we all have different ideals for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This blog post may be a little pessimistic as a forewarning.  I&#8217;m going to focus on Rodney Brooks and, more importantly, his view on life.  Thinking of life as a combination of simple processes is not a horrible disservice to mankind.  True it may be a gross oversimplification but it is tangible.  We relate the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Fast, Cheap, and Out of Control?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been reading the blogs posted about FCnOC.  It almost seems like this film either solidifies the faith you have in Morris or shakes the foundation of what you enjoy in Morris films.  One of the more interesting thoughts brought up was that everyone in FCnOC was too articulate.  The men in the film are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creation Control</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I felt that the most interesting person in Fast, Cheap, and Out of Control was the Robotics engineer at MIT.  He had the most mature mindset as far as creating a &#8220;living&#8221; thing.  When he builds his robots he designs them from life that existed, such as ants and other insects.  Allowing his robots the [...]]]></description>

		<title>How Important Are Questions?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Roscoe Collins: You ever seen a man&#8217;s brains? I&#8217;ve seen them. I&#8217;ve picked them up, scooped them up. Put them in, do them up like brains. You buying brains?
What prompted him to say that?  That&#8217;s what I think whenever I see someone in Morris&#8217;s films &#8220;ramble&#8221; on.  Of course, Morris edits the film [...]]]></description>

		<title>Woman in the Doorway</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have not seen Gates of Heaven yet, but our analysis of the scene with the woman in the pink apron was a good introduction to the odd nature of the film.  I just wanted to note some things that weren&#8217;t mentioned in class.  First off, the woman is framed dead center in the picture.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>A &#8220;good&#8221; film and some tips on paper analysis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This started as a response to Robyn&#8217;s post but I thought it was important enough to create a blog about.
The things that make a &#8220;good&#8221; film are hard to list.  There are those films that we have a campy feeling for (Schwarzenegger and Bronson anybody?), but some films excel at some things that others do [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mediums&#8217; Crossing:  Adaptations</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I would like to point out I really enjoyed the chandelier/flashlight example today.  It gives almost a perfect concept of watching an adaptation.  You are only getting fragments of the original.  Some people need to realize the difficulty in crossing mediums.  Each has their limitations and advantages.  Film is able to attract a larger audience [...]]]></description>
