Cinematic Rebels

Abstract: A 12 page research paper that looks at three films. Modern filmmakers often use the anti-hero, the rebel, to emphasize the points that they wish to make about society and its moral ambiguity. While traditional values portray right and wrong in clear-edged, well-defined terms of black and white, filmmakers reveal the frequent hypocrisy that constitutes the actual reality of societal experience. This use of cinema is particularly evident in three films, Taxi Driver, Full Metal Jacket and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
