Copyright is a type of intellectual property that gives its owner the exclusive right to make copies of a creative work, usually for a limited time. The creative work may be in a literary, artistic, educational, or musical form.
Copyright is intended to protect the original expression of an idea in the form of a creative work, but not the idea itself. A copyright is subject to limitations based on public interest considerations, such as the fair use doctrine in the United States. It is often shared among multiple authors, each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work, and who are commonly referred to as rights holders.
This means that copyrights granted by the law of a certain state, do not extend beyond the territory of that specific jurisdiction. Typically, the public law duration of a copyright expires 50 to years after the creator dies, depending on the jurisdiction. Some countries require certain copyright formalities to establishing copyright, others recognize copyright in any completed work, without a formal registration.
In general, many believe that the long copyright duration guarantees the better protection of works. On the contrast, a shortened copyright duration can increase the earnings of authors from their works and enhance cultural diversity and creativity. Movies, or films, are a type of visual communication which uses moving pictures and sound to tell stories or teach people something.
Most people watch view movies as a type of entertainment or a way to have fun. For some people, fun movies can mean movies that make them laugh, while for others it can mean movies that make them cry, or feel afraid. It is widely believed that copyrights are a must to foster cultural diversity and creativity. However, Parc argues that contrary to prevailing beliefs, imitation and copying do not restrict cultural creativity or diversity but in fact support them further.
Most movies are made so that they can be shown on screen in Cinemas and at home. After movies are shown in Cinemas for a period of a few weeks or months, they may be marketed through several other medias. They are shown on pay television or cable television, and sold or rented on DVD disks or videocassette tapes, so that people can watch the movies at home. You can also download or stream movies. Older movies are shown on television broadcasting stations.
A movie camera or video camera takes pictures very quickly, usually at 24 or 25 pictures frames every second. When a movie projector, a computer, or a television shows the pictures at that rate, it looks like the things shown in the set of pictures are really moving. Sound is either recorded at the same time, or added later. In the 20th century the camera used photographic film.
A genre is a word for a type of movie or a style of movie. Although hundreds of movies are made every year, there are very few that do not follow a small number of set plots, or stories.
Some movies mix together two or more genres. Action movies have a lot of exciting effects like car chases and gun fights, involving stuntmen. Action movies usually need very little effort to watch, since the plot is normally simple. For example, in Die Hard, terrorists take control of a skyscraper and ask for a big ransom in exchange for not killing the hostage workers.
One hero somehow manages to save everyone. Action movies do not usually make people cry, but if the action movie is also a drama, emotion will be involved. Adventure Movies usually involve a hero who sets out on a quest to save the world or loved ones. Animated movies use artificial images like talking cartoons to tell a story. These movies used to be drawn by hand, one frame at a time, but are now made on computers. Buddy movies involve 2 heroes, one must save the other, both must overcome obstacles.
Comedies are funny movies about people being silly or doing unusual things or being in silly or unusual situations that make the audience laugh. Documentaries are movies that are or claim to be about real people and real events. They are nearly always serious and may involve strongly emotional subjects, for example cruelty. Dramas are serious, and often about people falling in love or needing to make a big decision in their life.
They tell stories about relationships between people. Tragedies are always dramas, and are about people in trouble. For example, a husband and wife who are divorcing must each try to prove to a court of law that they are the best person to take care of their child. Emotion feelings are a big part of the movie and the audience people watching the movie may get upset and even cry.
Film noir movies are s-era detective dramas about crime and violence. Family movies are made to be good for the entire family. They are mainly made for children but often entertaining for adults as well. Disney is famous for their family movies. Horror movies use fear to excite the audience. Music, lighting and sets man-made places in movie studios where the movie is made are all designed to add to the feeling.
Romantic Comedies Rom-Coms are usually love stories about 2 people from different worlds, who must overcome obstacles to be together. Watch options. Storyline Edit. Four magicians each answer a mysterious summons to an obscure address with secrets inside. A year later, they are the Four Horsemen, big time stage illusionists who climax their sold-out Las Vegas show with a bank apparently robbed for real. This puts F. However, this mystery proves to be difficult to solve, even with the insights of professional illusion exposer Thaddeus Bradley.
What follows is a bizarre investigation where nothing is what it seems to be, with illusions, dark secrets, and hidden agendas galore as all involved are reminded of a great truth in this puzzle: the closer you look, the less you see. Come in close, because the more you think you see, the easier it'll be to fool you. Rated PG for language, some action and sexual content. Did you know Edit. Trivia The card trick in the opening sequence works in real life, too.
There is no editing, contrary to popular belief. It is done by performing what is known as a "card force", wherein the magician makes the unsuspecting audience member pick a predetermined card. The audience member believes he picks a random card, a belief which is strengthened by the magician usually re-shuffling the deck several times. This is, of course, just misdirection. It has no field agents.
Quotes J. Crazy credits Includes the credit: "Magic Inspired By David Copperfield". Alternate versions The Blu-ray release includes an "Extended Edition" that adds almost nine-and-a-half minutes of material. User reviews Review. Top review. A fun ride, but something's missing. This is an interesting concept, surely not a genre played out much in Hollywood. The cast is jam packed with all stars giving great but not their best performances. The missing piece of the puzzle?
Character development. That's not to say that there is any lack of interesting characters, each of the four horsemen bring a very unique style to the movie besides Henley, she's rather weak as a character , and the sheer amount of Talent present in each scene guarantees that you'll be entertained.
But definitely a solid 8 for me. Entertaining, fun, and definitely a concept worth exploring on the big screen. Just remember, the closer you look, the less you'll actually see. FAQ 3. What are the differences between the Theatrical Version and the Extended Cut? Details Edit. Release date May 31, United States. United States France. Official Facebook Official site Japan.
