Ultimate Film List

 

 

Warning: May contain subjectivity.

I will be compiling a list of my favourite films, in no particular order of favouritism of course, that would be far too tricky. Each choice will be classified into a genre and will be analysed for brief examples of iconography, codes and conventions used to assist in classifying it to that particular genre.

Martin Scorsese's The Aviator



The Queens-born director has maintained a very high standard of work once more throughout his phenomenal and successful career.

The Aviator delivers the story of one of the greatest pioneer’s to grace early Hollywood and the aviation industry, Howard Robard Hughes. The viewer gains insight to the stress involved in the film directing industry, Hughes’ sexual relationships; perhaps most notably Katharine Hepburn, and the inevitable anguish experienced through his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
