1. Relate what was discussed in class or the text to the screening.
Stagecoach was made in 1939. AlWesterns weren’t as big during this time period as before, John Ford made it it so good that it won oscars. In class we talked about the characters (anti- heros, characters who have somthing quirky about them or dont fit the persona... "prostitute with the heart of gold") The prostitute Dallas was actually a realy good person even though everyone else didn’t treat her like a Woman. The banker, who is supposed to be someone people trust, who is respected in the comunity , unlike the prostitute, but in reality he was just a greedy person who stole money from his own bank and was later arrested.
2. Find a related article and summarize the content.
http://articles.latimes.com/2010/may/23/entertainment/la-ca-second-20100523
this article talks about how Typically for Ford, the making of a western was unheard of and was both unassuming but well calculated. It also talks about how ford got so much worldwide recognition for this movie and will go down in history as one of the best movies made.
3) Apply the article to the film screened in class.
The article really showed what it took to make this movie . Ford had a risky idea, on John Wayne and that not only bettered his career but gave Stagecoach the perfect actor to play Ringo. This is what we learned in class that at the time westerns were not that popular or taken as a joke. Ford proves that he is a great director.
4) Write a critical analysis of the film
4) Write a critical analysis of the film
There were Westerns before it, Stagecoach i believe set the tempo for all movie Westerns to come. Director John Ford combined action, drama, humor, and a set of well-drawn characters in the story of a stagecoach . I believe stagecoach is not just one of the greatest and most influential Westerns ever made. The way the characters are portrait keeps you on the edge of your seat and doest let you sit back.
