Film Analysis

Introduction Paragraph

The Disruption by Kerry Nyx and Jared B. Scott looks at the science behind the climate change.  It talks about how Humans are one of  the bigger causes of  climate change and how we as humans should do something about it before they have any  consequences. This film also looks at the political process of things and how even thought we know what’s going on how we aren’t doing anything about it. This documentary film was released in 2014 and reached the lengths of fifty-two minutes. The purpose of this film, whilst still looking at the devistating affects of climate change and how most humans are turning a blind eye, it is also showing the positives and how some people are acting to make a change in climate change.

Explanation 
The film starts off with Apollo 9 on the moon, then as the music gets increasingly loud it goes into starting to talk about how if we don’t change what is being done now then we will affect our lives and our future generations. It then goes on to count down the days till the March starting with 100 in which between it mentions a  typhoon that hit the  Philippines. This typhoon made the  Philippines cry out so that someone would listen to the fact that we need to do something about the Climate change. The March that was planned was planned to inform the uninformed about the problems of climate change and how it is not affecting everyone the same way. I’ve noticed that the director went back in time and  showed an older clip of a nuclear disarmament movement. There is a lot of movement with the camera when it is showing the general people, but it is still during interviews and when there is a single person talking. The setting constantly moves around, but it is mainly stationed in the U.S. the Central conflict presented in this film is obviously the climate change, but also the lack of political views on this matter and how we need  politicians to  acknowledge  and take action to what’s going on with our earth.


Analysis and Evaluation 
I really enjoyed watching this film. This film put my mind in a whole new mindset in understanding the real risk of climate change. The author achieved his purpose by using emotion and facts, for example when the man from the  Philippines spoke about how much it hurt him to see his country like that he even cried and showed very powerful strong emotions. While also the got professional speakers like such as a speaker from Harvard, New York Times, etc to go down the timeline to tell us about the rise in CO2, and the discovery of our atmosphere, etc. I believe that the  acting, writing, and music  in this film was powerful especially how the music constantly got louder and either slower and faster it seem to really set the mood for the current even happening in the film.  I would recommend this film to others because they can get to know what is going on in their society and how their actions in everyday life is constantly affecting them and everyone around them, and also i think it will be helpful for them to know the actions they can take to make this earth a better place for us and the future.


Conclusion 
The impression this film left on me was that while us as the people are constantly trying to do what is right for our country, the people of power are mostly ignoring what is happening. I believe that this is mainly because like i explained early on how it is not affecting everyone equally. While it is mostly hurting people of color, low income communities, etc, people of power aren’t getting the same affect, therefore they ignore it until they are impacted personally. I really want you guys to understand the disastrous affects of climate change and how it is affecting you personally.  Whether or not You see it, it affecting our  atmosphere and lives all the same. Climate change is slowly killing us and we need to change. That is what that March represented, a need for change on earth. And with that, I’d give this film an A because it was really clear and and appealed to more people, sure as people who’ve lost their homes, and people of color, etc, it also really got in depth with the timeline and scientific facts and research on climate change and its affects on the earth.
