...Ryan Fosgreen Prof. Simon Cine 105 Film 2: Mise-en-Scene and Cinematography in “The Untouchables. When Al Capone was introduced the mise-en-scene was shown by him receiving a wet shave which was a popular service to receive back in the twenties. He was having his shoes polished and reporters were asking questions. Al Capone’s opening shot was a high angle shot from directly above. We know Capone is wealthy and holds a lot of power when the reporter says ‘some say you are the mayor of Chicago’. We also learn that Capone has a criminal background when he openly admits that he is a business man who took advantage of prohibition. Ness was introduced in his home with his wife the mise-en-scene again reflects the twenties when you see his furniture and clothing. He was wearing a suit with a vest and eventually a brim hat as well which accurately captures the apparel worn in the twenties. Elliott Ness is introduced as a caring individual disgusted by the rising crime in Chicago. It is easily seen that he is not corrupt and wants to clean up the streets of Chicago. Malone was introduced on a bridge passing by and confronting Elliott for littering. The police uniform worn by Malone was old fashioned especially the hat he wore, he also carried a wooden baton like the police used to carry in the early nineteen-hundreds. A low angle shot is used when you see Ness on the bridge at first but then it merges into an equal level shot once Ness and Malone begin conversing. The...

...Life: Just Beyond Your Reach “Untouchables” by Mulk Raj Anand was published in 1935 during a period of caste systems, political disturbances and potential changes in India’s future. Anand was one of the first Indian writers to connect Punjabi and Hinduism lifestyle into English for the rest of the world to understand. He wrote about the day in the life of a sweeper and toilet keeper which is the lowest of castes. Sweepers are considered untouchable as they work in a polluted environment and are therefore thought to be contagious to all higher castes. He chose to specifically write about Bakha the oldest son to Lakha as well as his two siblings, younger brother Rakha and sister Sohini, and also includes an honorable mention of his deceased mother. The memoir is on the subject of Bakha and all his trials and tribulations that are associated with the lowest caste from betrayal, humiliation, accusation, racism and even a hint of family incest. While the author is convincing that life as an untouchable is dreadful it is a journal from one person’s point of view that can be bias as well show emotions to exaggerate a situation and promote feelings of sympathy from the reader. Anand attempts to help the Westerner understand life in India, but because it is one sided it may not be historically relevant. Some of the more optimistic themes that Anand attempts to portray are the birthrights or caste levels within each society and how they intertwine with each other. For example...

...“This is the word of the LORD: 'Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the LORD of hosts” Integrity Produces Excellence This morning I will share how integrity produces a life of excellence. Remember to project your voice Open In Prayer Father I pray that as I share today your word will bring revelation to our lives. AMEN Opening Today we continue with the subject of Honesty and Integrity. Ps John has shared on Honesty is the only policy reasons we lie and facing the consequences. Last week he also spoke on Integrity today I will share on how integrity in our lives produces a life of excellence. 1. God loves a person that holds fast to their integrity Job 2:3 says: Then the LORD said to satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause." We can see in this scripture that God loves a person that holds fast to their integrity so much that He boasts to satan that Job is a man of integrity and he holds fast to it. Remember to project your voice Today I would like to ask you, are you a person that holds onto your integrity when difficult times comes? Integrity is defined in the Webster’s dictionary as: Integrity comprises the personal inner sense of "wholeness" deriving from honesty and consistent uprightness of character...

...1st Essay 09/14/2006 An Untouchable Rose The story, “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner in 1900‘s, is about one woman’s life, from her being a teen to her death in her home. The town’s people did not like her, her family did not like her, but when she died, everybody showed up to Miss Emily’s Funeral. The only person to see Emily was her old manservant, a black man that was the cook and the gardener. The only time that the town would see him was when he went to the grocery store to shop. He would never talk to anybody while he was there. Miss Emily was not always alone. When she was younger, her father lived at the house with her. He was a man without his sanity. When ever a male would come to the house to see Emily, he would greet them at the door, and see them off before Emily could even say hello. The town used this excuse for Emily when her father died. The town had always respected Emily. She was “A slender figure in white,” as contrasted with her father, who was described as “a spraddled silhouette.” After the death of her father she became distant and aloof. Miss Emily seems to live in a sort of fantasy world where death has no real meaning. Miss Emily refuses to accept or even recognize, the death of her father or that of Colonel Sartor is . She does not want to acknowledge the fact that the world around her was changing therefore Miss Emily surrounds her self with death. Everyone in town thought she had gone crazy. Even through all her mysterious...

...What is it like to be an untouchable in India (Dalit) and Japan (Burakumin)? To be an untouchable in India or Japan is to be a part of the population that would traditionally be placed at the bottom of the social hierarchy. These untouchables are traditionally associated with occupations that are considered impure, such as waste removal and the handling of human or animal carcasses, and therefore cannot interact with other members of their society, for fear of the pollution they would spread. In both India and Japan, there has been action against untouchability, yet there is still widespread discrimination of these people because of cultural ideals, the impure history attached to them and the traditional occupations that they are associated with. While the abolishment of caste discrimination in India in 1950 and the Buraka Liberation League in Japan has improved the lives of many people within these communities, there is still a great level of discrimination against the Indian untouchables, the Dalits, and Japanese untouchable population, the Burakumin. A Dalit is a member of the lowest rank in the Hindu caste system and Indian society. The term, Dalit, translates to “oppressed” or “broken”, signifying that members of the Dalit caste are immediately labelled as inferior to the rest of Indian society. In India today, Dalits make up 16.2% of its population, that number being approximately 166 million, which conveys the large spread of Dalits across the Indian population. The...

...Gabriela Rochabrun Illustrious Corporation Illustrious Corporation is a small assembly shop preparing their operating plan for the next 10 weeks. The process began with part H590 which they bought from another company but the complete shipment of 900 H590 was returned since poor quality, therefore part P712 will be delayed since P712 is H590 with tapped holes. As briefly explained on the Bill of Materials, X500 contains parts L477 and L600 (x2), a delay in getting H590 will affect both parts causing an impact in schedule. X500 requires 7 components in 4 assembly levels. Assuming tha all dependent items came from the same manufacturer, and since part H590 was returned, an alternative of evaluating different suppliers would be an option, this action can take time and extra cost but supplier can avoid any delays in schedule and mantain good relationship with customer since new suppliers can be used as a back up. Also if the Master Production Schedule is not accurate (the forecasts frequantly changes), the MRP won't be showing realistic numbers. 1. What is the lowest dependent item on the BOM H590 2.

...INTRODUCTION The case of the “Untouchable Water Carrier” to the best of my knowledge can be viewed as dealing with human resources management and organizational issues surrounding two categories of relationship: Employees and Traditional customs. It also deals with the constraints that traditional social structures and relationships place on hiring and promotion decisions. After reading through the cases stated in this article, I have decided to analyze the article according to paragraphs as they appear relevant for purpose of analysis. RELEVANCE TO INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS To my understanding, I believe the first paragraph tells us that as Managers we should not deprive employment to a prospective employee based on his/her societal standing or neither affiliation, neither sexual orientation nor religious affiliation, race and gender, Managers should strive to hire the best candidate for a position. This paragraph relates to paragraph 3 on the appendix talking about the “Caste” system which defines a “Caste” as a group of families whose members can marry with each other and eat in each other’s company without believing themselves polluted. This also relates to black and white segregation in the United States. As managers we should know this ethically wrong in business, employees should be hired based on their capability to perform their job description task and not based on race, political affiliation, gender and societal affiliation. To my understanding, I believe second paragraph...

...Canada's Untouchables! Perri Klass is a young doctor who is just out of medical school in the United States. In her story India (2005), she talks about coming face to face with the grim realities of poverty and poor health in the third world; she compares them to her experiences in the first world. Klass implies that the health issues in India do not exist in North America. She states that in her world, where she got her medical training, "all children are supposed to grow up" with only a few exceptions to the rule (p.104). My intent is to confirm that Canada has a similar group of people living in poverty and poor health, and that the problems of India exist in our first world country too. I will do this by identifying the poorest people of each country and show how each group suffers from social and economic exclusion. I will also clarify how the health of each group suffers, and demonstrate how these groups are marginalized. Social exclusion can be defined as, 'the process through which individuals or groups are wholly or partially excluded from full participation in the society within which they live' (Thorat, 2007, n.p.). Dalits (formerly known as the 'Untouchables'), of India and most of the Natives (ironically, they are also known as North American Indians) of Canada live under adverse conditions and poverty. In India the Dalits are the poorest of the poor. They have been kept from getting an education and from possessing land. They are left to do the heavy manual...

...traders and artisans; and Shudra, tenant farmers and servants. Some people were born outside of (and below) the caste system. They were called "untouchables." The Caste System in Brief: Practices associated with caste varied through time and across India, but they had some common features. The three key areas of life dominated by caste were marriage, meals and religious worship. Marriage across caste lines was strictly forbidden; most people even married within their own sub-caste or jati. At meal times, anyone could accept food from the hands of a Brahmin, but a Brahmin would be polluted if he or she took certain types of food from a lower caste person. At the other extreme, if an untouchable dared to draw water from a public well, he or she polluted the water and nobody else could use it. In terms of religion, as the priestly class, Brahmins were supposed to conduct religious rituals and services. This included preparation for festivals and holidays, as well as marriages and funerals. The Kshatrya and Vaisya castes had full rights to worship, but in some places Shudras (the servant caste) were not allowed to offer sacrifices to the gods. Untouchables were barred entirely from temples, and sometimes were not even allowed to set foot on temple grounds. If the shadow of an untouchable touched a Brahmin, he/she would be polluted, so untouchables had to lay...

...Brandon Veltre HIST 303 Fouraker 10/17/13 Lagaan vs The Rising: Mangel Pandey The two films Lagaan and The Rising: Mangel Pandey are stories that tell of the Indian people banding together to defeat the British in rejection of their rule over the sub-continent. Movies set in the colonial periods of India are well like by the Indian people as it portrays a significant role in their history and helped form India to what it is today. For example, the British built cities and infrastructure like railways that the Indian people still use today. But the British also inadvertently banded the many different peoples of India together against them, which is what these two movies are all about. Lagaan and The Rising express the unity of Hindus and Muslims, and the breaking of the caste system to form friendship. These two films also depict the British in almost identical ways; all but one of the Britsh characters is scornful about and neglects the Indian people and their customs. It may be coincidence that the same actor, Aamir Khan, plays the main character in both movies that unites the different groups together and share a bond with the “good” British character. However, the extent of the historical accuracy of the portrayal of colonial Britain is up to debate. Of the two films, The Rising presents a more accurate presentation of colonial Britain than Lagaan in its portrayal of the British, Indian society, and the reason why the peoples of India converging to combat...

...characteristics of these people. They were the highest and the most important of all of the levels. The Kshatriyas were the people next after the Brahmins. They were the warriors of India. These people were said to have a heroic mind, inner fire, and courage. The Vaishya were mostly the merchants, but they also consisted of people involved in trade and agriculture. Everybody that did not fall under these categories was a separate class which, to most people, was separated from the system. People who had jobs involving any type of death or people who ate meat were apart of the Harijan class. The people of this class are better known as the “untouchables.” Untouchables weren’t able to enter temples, schools, or to use wells used by other castes. All jobs and habits of these people were considered to be “polluting activities.” Many untouchables were able to leave their social structure by...

Considering how long the humanity has been in existence, Finding Jobs is a extremely difficult concept. There are many arguments about how to find and keep a job in today’s world and ways to make it more practical. In “The Untouchables”, author Thomas L.Friedman discusses how the American fungible and non-fungible jobs are affected by the Globalization. In Hudson Institute’s article “Work and Workers in the Twenty-First Century”, their analysts show their opinions about the current trend of jobs in the near future and envision it in the next twenty-plus years. In both articles the authors discuss the topics of why the American workers has reasons for both optimism and pessimism regarding to the changes in the workforces. Firstly, both authors discuss how the Globalization affects to the workforce market. In Friedman’s article, he advised his daughter to finish her homework beacause people in China and India are starving for these jobs. His advice is the another way to say that Globalization affected to the fungible jobs, in the flat world, people who has the fungible jobs will be automated easily. Hudson Institute’s Analyst Richard W.Judy said that in the Global economy, Automation will continue to displace low-skilled or unskilled workers in America’s Manufacturing firms and offices. He said the new jobs will also be safer, more stimulating, and...
