Which word best describes george lucas as a child?
Asked by Wiki User
Lucas was born in Modesto, California,(1913-1991).
His experiences growing up in the sleepy Central Town of Modesto and his early passion for cars and motor racing would eventually serve as inspiration for his Oscar-nominated low-budget phenomenon, American Graffiti. Before young Lucas became obsessed with the movie camera, he wanted to be a race car driver, and he spent most of his high school years racing on the underground circuit at fairgrounds and hanging out at garages. However, a near-fatal accident in his souped-up Autobianci Bianchina on June 12, 1962, just days before his high school graduation, quickly changed his mind. Instead of racing, he attended community college and later got accepted into a junior college to study anthropology. While taking liberal arts courses, he developed a passion for cinematography and camera tricks.

What are the codes and conventions of Woody Allen films?
Asked by Wiki User
Hitchcock had many signatures in his films.
A good deal of his films feature a male lead who was either framed or just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and essentially become the wrong man on the run. These plots would force him to run after the leads which put him in the predicament in the first place, often times having to reassert his identity. These stories would often lead to suspenseful climaxes either at or on top of famous national landmarks. North By Northwest and Saboteur are excellent examples, and even The Wrong Man exemplifies this convention in its title.
His films were almost always of the first person perspective and exemplified his yearning to place the audience as the voyeur.
A cool, elegant blonde was a typical female lead that would become a romantic interest for the male.
If a landmark is not a key part of the film, some sort of audible cue is. The 39 Steps and both versions of The Man Who Knew Too Much had a central audible cue involved.
Of course, many of these intriguing narratives were fueled by international spy anxieties, augmented by the Cold War.
Hitchcock would also litter his films with black humor, or gags which are of morbid taste.
Motherhood is also a theme in his films, Psycho of course features the most twisted version of this signature theme.
Lastly, Hitchcock made a cameo appearance in nearly all of his films. Sometimes these appearances were easy to spot and others more difficult. Late in his career, he put these cameos earlier in the film to not distract his audience.
