The purpose of this study is to analyze the spatial structure of director Im Kwon-taek's film , which was released in 1997. The space of the film contains the character and characteristics of the characters, and allows us to understand the contemporary reality and external circumstances surrounding the characters. For this purpose, this study used Michel Foucault's concept of heterotopia. The concept of heterotopia defines the character of the era and provides implications for how capital, power, institutions and norms surrounding our lives are being visualized through space. Based on this understanding, this study first dealt with the theoretical considerations of Michel Foucault's concept of heterotopia and its meaning. And through this, we investigated the possibility that the space of the film can be defined as a heterotopia. Through the analysis of the film's dialogue, scenes, and editing, the space of the film was divided into a heterotopia of deviation, a heterotopia of resistance impossibility, and a heterotopia of boundaries. The meaning of the film obtained through this analysis is as follows. The woman in the film is passively represented and floating on the border of heterotopia. And the film represent history and memory at the same time, and presents a heterotopia as the arena of competition.

On movie review sites, movie ratings are determined by netizens' subjective judgement. This means that inconsistency between ratings and opinions from netizens often occurs. To solve this problem, this paper proposes sentiment sentence sets which affect movie evaluation, and apply sets to comments to infer ratings. Creation of sentiment sentence sets is consisted of two stages, construction of sentiment word dictionary and creation of sentiment sentences for sentiment estimation. Sentiment word dictionary contains sentimental words and its polarities included in reviews. Elements of sentiment sentences are combined with movie related noun and predicate from words sentiment word dictionary. In this study, to make correspondence between polarity of sentiment sentence and sentiment word dictionary, sentiment sentences which have different polarity with sentiment word dictionary are removed. The scores of comments are calculated by applying averages of sentiment sentences elements. The result of experiment shows that sentence scores from sentiment sentence sets are closer to reflect real opinion of comments than ratings by netizens'.

According to the findings, appeared to appropriate the ocularcentrism aesthetic to film form and give the self-regulation to definite the idea of film art through picturesque imagination of dramatic stage. Such a result means that it converts the filmic time-space to the virtual things and practicalize the classification of the ethical doctrine of innate goodness and innate sin of human and the definition of humanism.

Sally Potter's movie, Orlando is a bold re-make of Virginia Woolf's classic novel, Orlando: A Biography, in which an English nobleman survives 400 years - as a man and then a woman. This paper focuses on a study of the film of Orlando in light of the feministic view. In Woolf's gender-bending, time-traveling novel, Orlando, Woolf probes the ideology of patriarchal society through an androgynous persona. Sally Potter's adroit revision of Woolf's novel not only duplicates Woolf's Orlando but it also catches Woolf's feminism by using cinematic expertise. The film is incredibly true to Woolf's spirit. The most explicit changes were structural so the storyline was simplified. Thus Orlando gives us a license to travel freely from a man to a woman. In short, Orlando is not about feminism but the unity and harmony of male and female.

The film scholar Vincent Amiel divides into three types of montage through his book The Aesthetics of Montage ; Montage narratif, Montage discursif, and Montage decorrespondances. These three categories are the concept that encompasses the aesthetic class to which most movies belong. Early films pursued the essential and basic functions of editing, which tend to be modified in the direction of enhancing the director's goals over time. In this way, "Expressive Montage" is one of most important concepts of montage, not as a 'methodology' that combines narrative but as a 'purpose'. In the montage stage, the expressive montage work is done through three steps of decision. The process of 'combining' to combine the selected films in a certain order, after the process of 'selection' which selects only necessary parts of the rush film, and 'connection' to determine the scene connection considering the duration of the shot. The connection is the final stage of the montage. There are exceptions, of course. When fiction films of classical narratives use close-ups, or when using models or objects of neutered animals, the film induces the tendency of a "montage decorrespondances" rather than a "montage narratif" or "montage discursif". This study attempts to analyze the tendency of montage of works with 'uncertain connection' through 'collage' used by close-ups and montage decorrespondances as 'fragmentation tendency of modern films'. The fragmentation of the montage in contemporary film breaks the continuous and structural nature of the film, and confuses the narration structure that is visible on the surface of the film. The tendency of the fragmentation of the montage, which started from this close-up, seems to give an answer to the extensibility of the modern image.

본 논문에서는 1940년대 헐리웃 영화 <로라>의 특정 시퀀스를 분석함으로써 영화의 극적 요구를 음악적 어휘로 전환시키는 데 있어 작곡가들이 어떤 방식으로 작곡 기법을 적용하는가를 고찰하였다. 한개의 시퀀스를 장면 별로 나누어 고찰한 결과, 일관된 주제의 성격과 그 주제가 내포한 음악적 동기의 반복과 변형, 주제의 중단과 생략, 시종일관 모호한 조성적 구조 등의 음악적 기법이 도출된다.

본 논문에서는 1940년대 할리우드 영화 <우리 생애 최고의 해>의 '귀향 장면'의 주제를 연구하였다. 그 장면 속에 제시되는 몇 개의 주제의 음악적 성격과 그 주제가 반복되고 변형되는 스타일을 분석함으로써 작곡가가 영화의 장면에 대응하는 방법을 밝히고자 하였다. 여기서 작곡가 프리드호퍼는 주제의 반복과 변형, 특정 음정과 분산화음의 빈번한 사용, 조성구조에서의 해결 지연과 화음의 연장이라는 방법을 주인공들의 심리 묘사에 사용한다.
