The Benign Indifference of the World: Absurdism in Film Storytelling often brings humans to the edge of what makes us most uneasy.
Existential crisis is a common worry throughout civilization. The theme of
the absurd—and the reminder to live life rather than seek to understand
it—is seen in many stories. Though it’s rooted in pointlessness, there is
significant room for humor in the absurd and a closer look often reveals a
deeper commentary on life. Of course, these movies exhibit aspects of other
genres as well, but these films also use odd, zany, bizarre scenarios to
allow viewers to laugh at the futility of finding meaning in life.

The Top 007: Celebrating Casino Royale at 15 I’ve created a list of the Top 7 007 adventures. You’ll no doubt
disagree—because what is a list without a little friendly disagreement?
That’s what James Bond fans do best. We all approach the series from a
different perspective, a different favorite Bond. Our specific affections
no doubt tied to the era in which we discovered our affection for a
tuxedo-clad globe-trotting alcoholic playboy, womanizer, and blunt
instrument of international espionage.

How to Spot a Film Noir When World War II ended, and films could be seen across country borders
again, there was a certain backlog of unseen movies. By the 1950s, the
French cinema scholars began writing about a certain style that had emerged
in movie making during the 1940s. They dubbed it film noir. There is a case
to be made that it may not have become a codified genre had it not been for
the glut of movies and the insatiable appetite of French audiences for
American films. By seeing so many in concentrated quick succession, a list
of shared characteristics became a tip sheet for films noir.
