Man with a Movie Camera

 

Recent histories of cinema highlight evidence that female creators played a significant role in the silent era. Write a short essay discussing that evidence. Who were influential or representative women in filmmaking of the 1910s and 20s?
In addition to directors, you may consider producers, writers, or editors. Rather than simply making a list of names and film titles, select one major figure to discuss in detail. Contextualize: what was the scope and impact of the work? Conclude by more briefly (perhaps a paragraph) acknowledging a second filmmaker whose work is distinctive from the first (even if they are less well-known).

You can look through the resources (and is preferred that information from there is used) that I provide in the additional materials section to help reference. Please reference the rise of the ‘New Woman’ within the cinema scene.
For the filmmaker, Mabel Normand may be easy as there is a lot of content about her in the resources I provide (especially Why Women in Hollywood Had More Power in 1916 Than They Do Now) or Lois Weber (info about her in Why Women in Hollywood Had More Power in 1916 Than They Do Now and Stamp_Lois_Weber_bio).

Sample Solution

inly Chinese was a very good idea since it brought huge result to CTs.

The timeframe also had significant effect on the success and failure of both conflicts. Since Malaya Government had been co-operation with British Military Administration which lead to a successful in signing the peace between communist Thailand and Malaya in 1989. Although in Malaya television could not show the horrors of war during that time, but through the story from people to another we knew that the Malaya had establish a campaign to the citizen about the violence of the Communist towards Malaya citizen especially in isolated area. For example, Sir Robert Thompson offers six essential principles for how to succeed in counterinsurgency warfare. First, the government must have clear political aims, such as a free, stable, united country. Second, the government must function in accordance with the law. Only by doing so can the government preserve its legitimacy in the eyes of the people. Third, the government must have an overall plan for coordinating civil and military efforts. Fourth, the priority should be to defeat political subversion, not the guerillas themselves. Fifth, after military operations have been conducted in a specific area, civic action programs must be initiated. Finally, the government must have already secured its base areas first and by working outwards from their secure areas, government forces are more likely to have some morale-boosting successes early on. From this example we can surely know that this timeframe had led to the successful of the counterinsurgency in Malaya. While in Vietnam, historical tells us that United states eventually lost their war through lack of national support. This is because the Government Vietnam and United State army only focuses on the first layer in the devising their strategic Hamlet program as mention pervious point. The plan and strategy were dawn very neat with full of preparations, but when it comes to execution the whole thing became waste. The sensitivity to the citizen does not given priority as the program conduct. They execute the plan without taking into consideration to the population of the Vietnam’s. thus this kind of time frame are one of the reason that led to the failure of both conflicts.
