The bucket of water is what they sold. The welding is the fact the movie drops.

The review

Everybody remembers the water. She dances in a bar, the bucket goes over, and that became the poster. Fewer people remember she is a welder, which is the better fact and the one the film misplaces. She wants a conservatory audition. The job is in the story. Then the story gets bored of the job.

You can watch the dancing. The nerve of an audition is not fake, and people who have tried out for something will feel it. What I will not do is pretend the work survived the last reel. It did not. Say the welding before you replay the song, or the night belongs to an image. An image can be pretty. It is not a shift.

Journal

Keep Flashdance in the record.

Industry and Household and Piety and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

Saturday Night Fever

46 instead of 34

Saturday Night Fever is still a drama film, and it scores 46 instead of 34. What you gain is industry: The hardware counter is the real job; the disco is the only place he excels.

The eight

  1. 4
    Industry

    Welding is in the film, and then the film forgets the job for the audition.

  2. 2
    Household

    No marriage, parent, or child is a life here. A bar and an audition take the room.

  3. 3
    Piety

    Nothing asks her to stop. The audition is the permission the film keeps giving.

  4. 6
    Courage

    Walking into a conservatory audition is a real risk of being turned away.

  5. 2
    Republic

    No neighbor, law, or town is owed anything. The stake is her own tryout.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    The water-bucket image is what the movie trains you to want again.

  7. 4
    Truth

    It shows you a welder, then breaks that and pretends the poster was the work.

  8. 3
    Stewardship

    Nothing is left for a workplace. The last feeling belongs to the audition.

Before anyone replays the song, say she was a welder and that the film dropped the job.

The review

Mark Kimball has already spent what the house had, in secret, on a race he is losing. His wife is already gone in all but the papers. A call says their son is taken. The son is at home. The boy who was taken is Hector, the son of the man who waits on their housekeeper. A fixer is hired. At the end the public is told that Mark is the man who saved the boy, and the votes follow.

The measure is that last thank-you. A child was the price of a story, and the story is what the city believed. Do not admire the nerve.

The Manchurian Candidate

46 instead of 34

The Manchurian Candidate is still a thriller film, and it scores 46 instead of 34. What you gain is truth: A medal can be a cover.

The eight

  1. 4
    Industry

    The campaign eats the savings. That is not work. It is a bet with someone else's money.

  2. 3
    Household

    The marriage is already leaving. The boy in danger is the housekeeper's, not theirs.

  3. 2
    Piety

    No duty older than the race is consulted.

  4. 4
    Courage

    The taken boy's father moves. The candidate hires the problem out.

  5. 3
    Republic

    A city is handed to a man on the strength of a story.

  6. 4
    Temperance

    The tension is the product. The lie at the end is not treated as a defeat.

  7. 4
    Truth

    He is thanked in public for a rescue he did not do, and the thanks elects him.

  8. 3
    Stewardship

    The other family leaves. He keeps the office.
