Comedy Film
A comedy film is a category of film which emphasizes humor. These films are designed to make the audience laugh through amusement. Films in this style traditionally have a happy ending (black comedy being an exception). Comedy is one of the oldest genres in film and it is derived from the classical comedy in theatre. Some of the earliest silent films were comedies, as slapstick comedy often relies on visual depictions, without requiring sound. When sound films became more prevalent during the 1930s, comedy films took another swing, as laughter could result from burlesque situations but also dialogue. Comedy, compared with other film genres, puts much more focus on individual stars, with many former stand-up comics transitioning to the film industry due to their popularity. In '' The Screenwriters Taxonomy'' (2017), Eric R. Williams contends that film genres are fundamentally based upon a film's atmosphere, character, and story. Therefore the labels "drama" and "comedy" are t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Two Worlds
The ''Giants'' series is a group of five science fiction novels by James P. Hogan, beginning with his first novel, 1977's ''Inherit the Stars''. Origins Hogan revealed in the introduction to the omnibus edition ''The Two Moons'', that ''Inherit the Stars'' was inspired by a viewing of the film ''2001: A Space Odyssey'' (1968) which he enjoyed until the ending. Complaining about what he saw as the confusing, effects-heavy conclusion at work afterwards, each of his colleagues bet him five pounds that he couldn't write and publish a science-fiction novel. The result was ''Inherit the Stars'', which was published by Del Rey Books in May 1977. He later asked Arthur C. Clarke about the meaning of the ending of ''2001'', to which Clarke reportedly replied that while the ending of Hogan's ''Inherit the Stars'' made more sense, the ending of ''2001'' made more money. Background The series is notable for its creation of a substantial prehistory of the Solar System, stretching back mil ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
