Read the extract carefully and answer the following questions : Almost every passing phase of the American Cinema has had its repercussion on the Indian film. Stories have been written based on Hollywood successes and the ditches preserved with care. Even where the story has been a genuinely Indian one. The background music has revealed an irrepressible penchant for the jazz idiom. It should be realised that the average American film is bad model. If only because it depicts a way of life so utterly at variance with our own. Moreover, the high technical Polish, which is the hall mark of the standard Hollywood product, would be impossible to achieve under existing Indian conditions. What the Indian cinema needs today is not more gloss, but more imagination, more integrity, and a more intelligent appreciation of the limitations of the medium. (i) Name the topic and the author? (ii) What is the influence of American films on Indian cinema? (iii) What is the symbol of standard of Hollywood's films? (iv) What does the Indian camera need today? (v) What is the idea of the writer about American film? |
|
Answer» (i) The topic is 'What is wrong with Indian Cinema' and the author is Satyajit Ray. (ii) The American Cinema has had its repercussion on the Indian film, such as stories, they are based on Hollywood success. (iii) The high technical polish, is the hallmark of the standard of Hollywood product. (iv) The Indian camera needs today is not more gloss, but more imagination, more integrity, and a more intelligent appreciation of the limitation of the medium.

Read the extract carefully and answer the following questions :As an example, when I go to the cinema I find myself in a hopeless fog, and after two or three minutes I have to turn to my wife for enlightenment. I whisper : 'Is this the same girl as the one we saw at the beginning?" And she whispers back: "No there are three girls in this film—a tall blonde, a short blonde, and a medium-sized brunette. Call them A, B and C. The hero is that man who takes his hat off when he comes indoors. He is going to fall in love with girls B, C, A in that order." And so it proves to be. There you have a mind which has trained itself to work in high gearthough as a matter of fact it can work in other gears just as well. But my point is that most of my follow-patients in the cinema do think fast enough to keep up comfortably with rapid changes of scene and action. They think much faster than people did thirty years ago: possibly because those who do not think fast in the High street now a days may not get another chance in this world think at world to think at all. (i) Name the topic and the author. (ii) What does the author find when he sees a cinema? (iii) To whom do the letter A, B and C stand for? (iv) What does the author prove? (v) In which situation does the writer find himself during watching the cinema? |
|
Answer» (i) The topic is 'The pace for living' and the author is R.C. Hutchinson. (ii) The author finds himself in a hopeless fog when he sees a cinema. (iii) 'A' stands for tall blonde, 'B' stands for short blonde and 'C' stands for a medium sized brunette. (iv) The author proves that there is a mind which has trained itself to work in high gear. (v) He finds himself in fogless situation during watching the cinema. |
