Realism, antirealism, and verisimilitude is used in many films. Realism reflects life and wants the veiwers of the film to feel like it happens in every day life. Films using realism are going to try to depict things how they actualy are like a mother going through labor and how difficult it is for her. Antirealism is abstract and focuses in on a veiw making a point stand out. It does not reflect what would happen on a daily basis for instance in the movie “Avatar” it is not realistic to change a human to a creature. Some films use both realism and antirealism. Along with realism and antirealism is verisimilitude. Verisimilitude is a way to convince the viewers that something is real. For example in the movie “Honey I shrunk the Kids” It seams beleivable to the audiance that the kids actualy did shrink and everything is huge to them.
Each different movie in the same genre have many connections. Gangster movies are usualy shot in an area that looks unwealthy and dangerous. Most gangster movies are about territory or drugs. The characters as well fallow along with the genre of “gangster.” Though stereotypical it’s true, majority of the characters are African American all together creating a gangster setting.
