2,006 wordsThe deconstruction of the conventions of the theatre in Anton Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard predicts the more radical obliteration presented later by Pirandello in Six Characters in Search of an Author. The seed of this attack on convention by Chekhov are the inherent flaws of all the characters in The Cherry Orchard. The lack of any character with which to identify or understand creates a portrait much closer to reality than the staged drama of Ibsen or other playwrights who came before. In reco...

Lopakhin and Madame Ravensky are clashing individuals, who are not to be judged as either good or bad. Both ...

Takes The Earrings Madame Des Camera
930 wordsThe Madame De MADAME de The film Madame de, directed by Max Ophuls is perfection. This tragedy of love, which begins in narcissistic flirtation and passes from romance to passion, to desperation, is set, ironically, in aristocratic circles that seem too superficial to take love tragically. Everything from the writing, casting, direction, photography and finally to editing is flawless. It is an example of a film done right, an example of a director with a vision, and the choices he makes to execu...

Madame Bovary Emma Bovary
3,634 wordsScenes from a provincial life Part two This is a clear visual picture of a place but it is loaded with Madame Bovary's ennui and her way of seeing.

The vine is just a vine, not the True Vine, and is indifferently identified with the serpent, who is sick. Cloportes which drag themselves along are not angels to close the gates but woodlice. The verbs are in the indefinite past seem...
