337.424 Alma, Hitch, Niece Charlotte and Uncle Charlie: Are They all One in the Same?
This paper examines the Alfred Hitchcock film Shadow do a Doubt from an artistic, theatrical and personal perspective. It draws a relationship between Hitchcock's personal life and his characterizations. It concludes that Uncle Charlie is Hitchcock and niece Charlotte is Hitchcock's wife Alma. Shadow of a Doubt is a film of doubles and opposites; a paradox of good and evil, and a portrait of Hitchcock's dissatisfaction with the family life in the 1940's Uncle Charlie appears to be the rich uncle and on the surface the Santa Rosa family is average America, but in fact it is hot bed of unrest, sexism, and anger with each family member vying for personal identity and recognition. Considerable evidence in the film indicates that the social and family relationships portrayed in this film may have been a reflection of the relationship between Alma and Alfred Hitchcock.

342.486 An Analysis of The Shining.
This paper discusses Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation of Stephen King's novel The Shining. It provides a stunning example of how a great director is able to maximize the potential impact of the film medium. Through his use of recurring themes and a unique stylistic vision, Kubrick succeeds in putting a stamp of individuality on all his films. One theme that is prominent in The Shining is the passage of time. The significance of time, as an agent of constant change, is touched upon throughout the film in a variety of ways including the obvious and the subtle, beginning with the opening sequence in which we travel up the long, winding and foreboding mountain road to the Overlook Hotel. Subsequently, in his interview with the hotel manager, it is made clear to Jack that the job of being the off-season manager at the Overlook Hotel is not an easy or desirable task.
