Classical Hollywood Style

I am not that of a fan of Hollywood movies or any kinds of movies but when we watched "The Hollywood Style", I appreciated the way these films were, created, filmed and produced. The show showcased the classic Hollywood films like The Heiress, Casablanca, Scarface, Carrie, A place in the sun and a lot more. in the movies that were exhibited, I noticed that they wanted the audience to have an escape to their daily lives. The movies were grand and you can really see a tremendous amount of richness and royalty. 

Movies in the Classical Hollywood

I loved how the directors of this generation always, in some ways incorporated the old and classic hollywood style to their movies, the camera movement and the seamless storytelling to be exact. But directors also made it a point that the camera movement, the set and other technicalities won't affect the storytelling element that they want to convey to their audiences. The hollywood movies also got some influences from the European films and according to the documentary, some of European directors also went to U.S.A. to film some movies and inspired American directors.

Warner Brothers' Studios

The show tells the evolution of Hollywood movies, the way it was before and the way of new Hollywood movies were influenced by the past. It also tackles the other parts of movie production (writing/script, sound effects, music, set and the editing). The Hollywood style mention the big playmakers in the movie industry like, 20th Century Fox, MGM, United Artists Incorp., Universal Stuios, to name some.

I personally liked the part when the studio type movie houses were showed, because I think that, that type of movie production is cost-efficient and effective, because you can call anyone that you need in the fastest time possible. 

At the end of the docu, I also commend the last statement that, yes the tools in creating a movie may change but they will all go back and they will get their inspiration to the classic and ever-reliable, old Hollywood Style.
