Airplane

     This movie was originally made in late 1979. (released mid 1980). Obviously everyone wore the typical disco outfits of the time period; however, there were different characters who had certain costumes on because of the different scenerios that were happening. It is a comedy/romance and I highly recomend it. There are many wonderful uses of transitions throughout the film, allowing for more imagination to happen. Special effects are not needed for the most part, although are used. Most things, are not so much as "special" effects as just effects, where you can see how/where/what is being used which in some peoples minds makes it special. However, this just makes the film more enjoyable.


     It is rated PG despite some nudity, and sexual references. There is many different forms of jokes in this film, which are impossible to catch in one sitting.


     There are flash back in where the characters are outside, and the colours are neutral, and everything is bright. In comparsion to when the characters are inside the plane:
the lighting is dim, the clothing, though many different colours, is very gloomy looking and plain. This helps with the plot, so that the focus is on the dialogue, and not the surroundings or other things going on. Many of the jokes have nothing to do with the plot, and are thrown in there, deviating you from what is supposed to be going on. However, it adds to some of the elements Jim Abrahams,David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker tried to use.


     So, until next time--
