| ARTICLES RELATED TO Ivan Passer | | | |  Ivan Passer: Encyclopedia II - Picnic film - CriticismThe film was later dissmissed or mildly panned in retrospective reviews written during the 1970s and 80s. But by the end of the 20th century, spurred by releases in its original aspect ratio on Laserdisc and DVD, later-day critics were praising Picnic's resonant portrayal of small-town life in the US during the Eisenhower era. With its fine soundtrack and strong performances by all the supporting cast, notably those of a young Susan Strasberg, who is said to carry the many scenes she appears in, and Arthur O'Connell, who's small town merchant, and "pressured" middle-age bridegroom role, d ...

| | | | Ivan Passer: Encyclopedia II - Frankenstein - Analysis Frankenstein is in some ways allegorical, and was conceived and written during an early phase of the Industrial Revolution, at a time of dramatic change. Behind Frankenstein's experiments is the search for ultimate power or godhood: what greater power could there be than the act of creation of life? Frankenstein and his utter disregard for the human and animal remains gathered in his pursuit of power can be taken as symbolic of the rampant forces of laissez-faire capitalism extant at the time and their basic disregard for human ...
