      <description>In case of Hollywood Approach, they think always to make money on movie. They will go for definitely one single screen unless the story is complicated to visualize on the screen. A movie with Split screen might confuse the spectators understanding about the story. Besides, Hollywood movie is good budget movie and they don't want their viewers to leave the theater which may cause the movie flop.  </description>

      <description>I would say that sometimes it is difficult to understand the story on split screen, because we lose control of understanding of what's going on. But, I believe that as the story and scenarios were difficult to visualize on the screen. That's why I think the screen was spitted into half and half to show both back and front of character's emotion, gestures in a certain situation of story.   </description>

      <description>When a movie story is taken from novel, a screenwriter or director cannot take every aspects of scenario. Sometimes, in some movies scenario of a novel are shown as flashback if it is needed. But, in As I Laying Dying it was difficult to visualize efficiently, so director used screen half and half which will show a motion or gestures from different angle which give a sense of understanding the character emotions and body language at a crucial situations. </description>

      <description>The main protagonist Tommy Lee Jones dominates this version with his powerful depiction of Abner&#8217;s icy and controlled anger and also known for his independence. He was cold and violent. Ab Snopes has a harsh, emotionless voice.</description>

      <description>I feel that this is symbolic and metaphorical meaning that whenever the family hopes to move forward, they get stumbled again and again, no matter they move one town to another. It looks like Snopes sitting and holding a clock which can stop any time anywhere.</description>

      <title>Censorship problems and Hollywood requirement to root for a hero.</title>

      <description>Faulkner's novels were informative which contain explicit scenarios like sexuality, death and so forth. In thirty's sexuality or death scene was impermissible by censorship. So script writer had to rewrite the novel to show the explicit scenarios alternative way. Also, in the film Tarnished Angel, the reporter had no name which the director had to create one to make understand the audience.  </description>

      <description>As a Pilot, Roger was more focused on plane and airshow rather than wife Lavern. Besides, it seemed that the love or relationship between Lavern and Roger was delicate. But Hudson's presence in the film made both to feel each other. As Hudson got weak on Lavern which actually helped the couple understand that a relationship exist between them. </description>

      <title>Faulkner called the film honest..</title>
      <link>https://nowcomment.com/documents/56428?scroll_to=620204</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://nowcomment.com/documents/56428?scroll_to=620204</guid>
      <description>Faulkner called the film honest which is very true I think. Although the novel was not very popular or likable to many people even Faulkner himself did not like the novel much. Faulkner described many world war-I experiences of others, even though Faulkner himself did not participate in World War-I physically. He put many scenarios in the novel which he admitted could not recognized at all. For example, one of the scenarios was having sex in the plane during flying which is not in the film, could be because of censorship which could be the reason for calling the film honest. Moreover, he mentioned about many displaced people which reflect through film as well.   </description>

      <description>As Chick was growing in a white family where black people are considered as salve and inferior in the society. So, Chick had no idea about generosity, hospitality which could have among black community. He had always thought if someone offers or helps with something, it has to be exchanged by money all the time. But it is true that he got his best education through Lucas hospitality at his home. </description>

      <description>As Chick Mallison was practicing law with his uncle, so he had helped himself helping convicted Lucas from lynch and learnt the rules and law should work for everyone equally. It could be his best practice while working with his uncle. </description>

      <description>Intruder in the dust, Faulkner's novel illustrates about racism, hatred to minorities, justice, hospitality and so forth which is very critical issues he talked about, and also sarcastic and sharp to some people who are against Faulkner's writing. He not only Intruder in the Dust but also The Story of Temple Drake, The Reivers, The Big Sleep wrote about distinguished issues which is very mordant. </description>

      <description>Since, it was not huge development in the decade of thirty's and forty's in the setting where the two movie shooting took place. The Oxford was more likely suburbs area like Court and Lawyer's offices, small stores presence especially in Intruder in the dust, and concrete houses and street in The Reivers, but most places were looked like small village and there are green trees, muddy roads and ponds and so forth.</description>

      <description>Chick has been rescued by his black friend and Lucas. Lucas took Chick to his own house and offer food and dry clothes. Chick offered money for offering food but Lucas did not accept for his hospitality, because Chick was his guest. In the movie, it was almost same treatment of race. Chick Mallison got little angry for not accepting his payment and left the house with his coins. </description>

      <description>What I think is, a novel brings out every aspects of a scenario in details, when people read novels they feel the different scenarios from their hearts. In contrast, in late 40s most likely people knew the story of the movie and people especially white people did not go to theater to watch the movie. There could be an issue about insulting or hurting sense of humor where the movie is about racism of white people. That could be the reason flopping the movie in the box office.  </description>

      <description>The picture here is  racism which has been passed through video messaging or movie to every people. In the novel or movie Intruder in the Dust is mainly about racism and its cause and effect which has been depicted well through movie.</description>

      <description>..but the best reason what I think is, in a malicious and white southern racist society a black man Lucas Beauchamp was wrongly accused of murdering a white man. In Mississippi, white controlled southern area racist whites were ready to lynch him, but young boy Chick Mallison from southern white family helped to find the real murderer and save Lucas life from death sentences. As Chick Mallison got rescued from icy creek during rabbit hunting by Lucas and treated him as guest in his own house. Chick knew that Lucas was a good man. Besides,  Chick wasn't racist enough as others. Since, nobody wanted to save a black man where a white young boy Chick's endeavor helped to reveal the truth and established equal justice.    </description>

      <description>Although Faulkner was experienced in script writing, Hawks did not take risk making film with flashbacks, but he instructed Faulkner to be ease in the process of making film. Also, he focused on character development and keep the story in right flow. Besides, there could be time or film budget concerns too.  </description>

      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://nowcomment.com/documents/56417?scroll_to=593566</guid>
      <description>The movie is also confusing, complex and logic-defying in characters. The Big sleep refers to death, so there are many blackmails, murders and committing to ill deeds, such as gambling, pornography, corruptions, deceptions and so forth. </description>

      <title>Ethos means the fundamental values peculiar to a specific person, people, culture, or movement. </title>

      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://nowcomment.com/documents/56415?scroll_to=585947</guid>
      <description>What I think Faulkner means Ethos in the novel is the lifestyle, attitude, culture and the values of people and family. As Boss Priest is an elite in the community which has been passing on generation to generation. So it was expected from family or community to Lucius will carry on with Ethos or Ethics.</description>

      <description>Lucius was quite gentle, When Miss Corrie's nephew Otis proudly tells Lucius all about Miss Corrie and her activities as well as the peephole business where Otis charges the children of the neighborhood to watch her activities with her guests, Lucius could not take it easy way, he could not tolerate the insult and he fought with Otis and cut his hand which made Ms. Corrie cry and make her feel better to young Lucius. </description>

In Hell Creek the road was muddy and swampy, the car got stuck in that muddy sport, Boon and Ned had to got off to pull out from soft mud, but they failed. The houseman pull out the car with his horses and had charged six dollars which was very expensive. In the novel, Hell Creek is described that, Boon and Ned were talking about Hell Creek and it should be on the way to Memphis, they were looking for it. The road was dry and dusty, the land was vacant, children and dogs were running toward to fence or road to watch as they pass. while driving a wide valley lay before them, the road descending from the plateau toward a band of willow and cypress which marked the creek.

      <description>The house was whorehouse, and the people in the whorehouse would live like a family. They were having meal in dinning table together, people come and have good hospitality by ladies who work in the whorehouse. It was ironic because little boys had access to it as guests anyhow. Importantly, ladies were inspired especially Corrie by young boy Lucius through his respect and honesty. Ladies were start thinking to quit working in the brothel.
On the other hand, in The Story of Temple Drake, Temple has been raped by street boy Trigger and force her to be in the whorehouse. Although Temple was delicate and indifferent in relationship, rather she was liking having intercourse with various people and that's how Temple end up in the whorehouse. </description>

      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://nowcomment.com/documents/56415?scroll_to=585352</guid>
      <description>In the movie, the protagonist  Lucius played great role as gentleman through his some certain activities. When Lucius went to Memphis, he did not drink on the dinner table as requested because he followed his promise which he made with his mother and family. Also, he raised his voice against Otis who was accused of peephole business and he fought against and cut his hand with Otis's knife. Otis charges other children of the neighborhood to watch Corrie's activities with her guests in the room, which Lucius thought was unfair. Eventually Ms. Corrie had known and was crying because eleven year old boy fought for her and she promises not to do the work in whorehouse, instead she will fine something else. The community history has been violated when Lucius has been temped to go to Memphis, stayed in whorehouse, participated in horse race and so forth. But, at last Lucius admitted everything to his grandfather that he did neglect the responsibility and family discipline which have proved of being gentleman. </description>

      <description>Temple Drake is a southern women who love clothe, she is beautiful woman and intelligent in certain way. Southern woman Temple came from rich and wealthy family. She like to make up instead of going to serious relationship. She was more likely to enjoy her life doing fun things like kissing, hugging and sleeping with strangers. She is being raped by city boy who is neglected in the society. Eventually she ends up living at whorehouse, I guess because of she was liking the place. </description>

      <description>What I mean is not showing the full rape scene on screen, but give a short scene which gives message to audience. Like in the movie Trigger raped Temple which has shown the screaming of Temple. Likewise, kicking up during rape which means ejaculations. Using sign or sound which indicate and give message to audiences about actual scene.  </description>

      <description>Even in some cultures, production code or censorship of film industry is strict, because lets say in a family oriented movie or film you are not allowed to put obscene although it is required, you got to  come up an alternative idea to deliver the story to audience. It makes an embarrassing situations among people especially family members when an unexpected indecent scene show up. But it has been changing among people nowadays and many people are comfortable of such situation.   </description>

      <description>Since the movie was made back in the decade of thirty's, the production code of movie industry or studios was strict. Yet, in other movies such kind of horrific or romantic scene was shown promptly which actually make sense to understand the facts or story. But in twentieth century, it is more open and evolved to viewers which seem censorship no longer exists.  </description>

      <description>As the southern belle women particularly the main protagonist Temple loves flirting, serious jokes as well as having sex instead of going for the relationship in the novel. She was being raped by bad guy, actually she was liking it and placed into whorehouse. These kinds of obscene wasn't shown in the movie because of the censorship's obligation. </description>

      <description>What I understand based on the comment is that every movies have some meanings and facts of life or movies give us information of various lives. So movies cannot show us every single things, such as some obscene facts. For example, in the novel the character Southern belle women Temple is raped, so in the movie it is not allowed to show actual raped scene, otherwise it will be fined against movie by censorship. In such case the director of the movie has to do something alternative to carry out the facts. </description>

      <description>Claude did not want to go to Torpedo boat, because he loved Diana very much. He was in doubt that if he dies or can't come back to his lover again. Afterwards he was very excited while going to fly with Bogard, but ultimately he lost his eyesight which is enough to lose her.  </description>

      <description>The war movie definitely will be big budget movie, people like such a movie where war and love present. People more likely would be curious to watch how the war and love blend together. So I think, the story must be the best to attract spectators in the theater. </description>

      <description>I have seen many times and also believe that people cannot forget the first love in life. The same situation happened in the movie, when Bogard and Crawford met each other in France, they hugged and kissed each other. Although Crawford had got married to Claude, she did not care at all being intimate with Bogard. First love is remarkable and unforgettable.  </description>

      <description>I feel the flashbacks depend on how big the story and novel are, In a film, the director or screenwriter try to cover the whole story or novel in a short film. Sometimes we might need flashbacks, sometimes we don't need it. In the film &quot;Today we Live&quot; We don't know and the movie did not show that how Bogard fell in love with Crawford, maybe we could see a couple minutes of flashback of how they falling in love each other, when Crawford describe Bogard to her brother Ronnie. So I feel sometimes we need sometimes to understand the movie. </description>

      <description>Since Hawks did not want Faulkner to concentrate on Flashbacks, but Faulkner was told to keep the flow of the story. I don't think Faulkner had not enough experience to implement flashbacks. Flashbacks make the story back and forth and it sometimes destroy the coherent of plot and sequences.  so that's why I think, Hawks and Faulkner just ignored flashbacks.</description>

      <description>Faulkner's story writing as well as screenwriting is outstanding. In the movie &quot;Today We Live&quot; Faulkner has shown how to divert the love story. Although in the story Crawford has fallen love with Bogard but got married to Claude. Both of the characters been to war, one lost his eyesight and another were thought dead. In such a situation, character Claude started sacrificing his love, he couldn't carry on properly because of his blind helplessness. Bogard came back alive and the love was rolling back to him slowly. It makes the story and the film more tension and exciting.</description>

      <description>Joan Crawford said &quot;Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell&quot;. The quote is very true that we people never know when we fall in love with who. In the movie, she has to fall in love with Gary Cooper but had got married Robert Young, and in real life Crawford has fallen love with Franchot Tone who played role as her brother in the movie &quot;Today We Live&quot;. Love is fire, We never know when it is going to warm someone's mind.</description>

      <description>Since the scripts of the Crawford's character was a situation of choice that Crawford has to fall in love with Gary Cooper and also she wanted to keep her promise to Robert Young. So, the Crawford's character was in dilemma. I assume that it could be one reason as well as  it also could be less female actress against more men in the story or Film.  </description>

      <description>Hawks wanted there will be no flashbacks, and Faulkner wrote the screenplay in five days outstandingly without any flashbacks. Maybe Hawks did not want to put any separate shots of memory from past in the continuous motion of the story, maybe it could be for minimizing time of shooting, or for tighten budget and so forth. However, he continued the flow of the story and character development as well without any flashbacks. </description>

      <description>I don't think Faulkner sold himself to devil, but here I think money could be a factor, and also he was skilled and famous in writing scripts which have been appreciated by many other elite people in Hollywood. I think he had dedicated himself of compassionate writing more for films because he himself loved screenwriting, films and Hollywood as well. </description>

      <description>Many famous authors who did their turns in Hollywood, but Faulkner seemed had gift for film. He was skilled which was observed by fellow novelist Stephen Longstreet that Faulkner was one of the few real geniuses who ever wrote for the cinematic movies. Also, he became favorite to director Howard Hawks for the productive completion of four story treatments in four weeks. He got eventually many scripts writing contract in Hollywood. </description>

      <description>Undoubtedly, William Faulkner was popular and successful in writing scripts or screenwriter. What I believe is no matter what the writers are popular or successful in their carriers or not, they should be credited for their works if it is still minimal work.  Based on the fourth paragraph Faulkner has not been credited for the &quot;The Southerner&quot;, because he was not under contract,  where the film has won grand prize at Venice Film Festival. It was Faulkner's one of the best scripts ever, but I think the studio bosses should have some rules and regulations so that writers could be benefited for their each endeavors. </description>

      <description>In general, the sequence should be studio bosses, actors and writers, but what my perception is here, when studio bosses play role as a screenwriter or scripts then we can think of the sequence other way around. William Faulkner was screenwriter, but he owned a studio and had a role as an actor in the film as &quot;a motion picture doctor&quot; as well. Nothing is impossible, so the order could be any order.</description>

      <title>Studios bosses, actors, writers, everyone has their own responsibilities and activities. So, the prioritizing or order is determined by who is leading what? </title>

      <description>To me, sometimes it is tough to make an order because Studio bosses determine Producers, director, writers and so forth. But sometimes producers act as writers or they hire writers. And they have to take care of locations, cameras, and in charge of anything the production needs for making films.  Likewise, director select actors base on the ability and performance of the characters roles. Also, directors may changes the scripts if its needed base on characters role. The actors have to have ability to succeed the role of characters scripts. So what I think that the sequence should be studios bosses, writers and actors accordingly. </description>

      <description>As Howard Hawks was Faulkner's favorite director in Hollywood, and through his favorite director he had seen positive possibilities towards his screenwriting carrier in Hollywood. He has written five of his six credited screenplays with Howard Hawks. Besides, Based on my understanding Faulkner screenwriting, Faulkner had got contract with Twenty-Century Fox and also claimed his role in the film was as &quot;a motion picture doctor&quot; as well. He had also wrote for Warner Brothers. Although he was successful in writing screenplay in Hollywood, but sometimes back and forth from Hollywood and not getting credit from some studios, and most importantly up and down in relationships made him wary sometimes.   </description>

      <description>William Faulkner was writing poetry at his younger age. He became famous for his novels &quot;The Sound and the Fury,&quot; &quot;As I Lay Dying&quot; and &quot;Light in August&quot;. Faulkner's income was poor when he went to Hollywood first. He had a six-Week contract with Metro Goldwyn-Mayer and wrote six credited screenplays. Faulkner's beloved wife Estelle gave birth to Jill and it was woefully insufficient to maintain his dependents in the family. That is why, Faulkner traveled to Hollywood a dozen time and devoted to write countless films and that only for financial gain. </description>
