Lauf Junge Lauf—translated in English to Run Boy Run—is a 2013 German film adaptation of Uri Orlev’s novel Run, Boy, Run. Pepe Danquart directs the film in a way that manages to provide the viewer with a happy feeling despite many heart wrenching scenes. Every cinematic aspect flows together to create a beautiful and entertaining movie. The main character is played by Kamil Tkacz during flashbacks and Andrzej Tkacz for the rest of the movie; they put on a phenomenal performance that keeps you invested throughout the entire movie. This movie has become a personal favorite and I would highly recommend for others to see it if they have any free time.

Peter's father was a violinist and professor at the university. He spoke out against the expulsion of the Jewish professors and the entire Nazi movement. Because of this, one night, in the middle of dinner, he was taken away by the Gestapo. He was brought back home

Richard Linklater’s Boyhood leaves the audience questioning, asking, and wanting more. The entirety of the film is a recollection of memories and experiences throughout the course of Mason’s childhood.

Certain questions begin to formulate like, why doesn’t Linklater use the typical format of storytelling during Mason’s childhood? How come we never know what happened between Oliva and Mason Sr? Why doesn’t

It is about a boy, Hally, dealing with his abusive alcoholic father and his relationship with Sam, who is more of a father figure than his dad.

In the scene of how we meet Hally who becomes concerned when he hears his dad is coming home from the hospital, we could see the director did such a great job at interpreting the play into a movie. What's significant about this scene is that it draws two major emotions - joy and anger- residing in the mind of Hally and it enhances the

It is then played out one last time. After the first and second sequence, there is a red hued, narrative bridge. There are several purposes of those bridges that affect the movie as a whole.
