This a link for you to look at my work on documentary Where to Invade Next This blog post is inspired by events in the documentary "Where to Invade Next" produced film director Micheal Moore. It is a documentary about how the American government approached about how to solve some of most talked about issues. Like Health Care Reform, College Education debt, Labor Law, Women Right, Decriminalizing Drugs, Our judicial system and abortions etc. So he took flight to foreign countries such as France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Finland, Portugal, Slovenia, Iceland and Tunisia South Africa. His plan is travel to international land and invade there soil and take some of their resources, ideas and polices to bring back to the states to solve our problems. And what he discovers will surprise and blow his mind. In the documentary "Where to Invade Next, Michael Moore plans to fictitiously invade foreign soil on request from the American government. They approached Michael Moore in desperation because they need more answer to solve some major issues, that American can't themselves out off. To help improve our social and economics problems. He touches on the chronic issues that Americans have been dealing with since the beginning of time. Issues such as Health Care, Decriminalizing Drugs,Education, Labor Rights, Women Right and much more. So while in international lands he carries the America flag and plants it at the spot where he has successfully invading in a humorous way. And at times in the movie his reactions to what he has been told, leaves him in total shock and disbelief. But come to find out that all of the inner workings and structure of their perfect systems, came from the United States model of the way they should carry out their polices. So in retrospect is America holding up their end of the bargain. But who is to say that these ideas and laws won't be a reality for us in the near future. Truthfully they have already start adopting some of the ideas by decriminalizing marijuana, so maybe this is a look into what is to come. How does Michael Moore establish ethos? Well his credibility comes from his previous films like Fahrenheit 9/11, Sicko and Bowling for Columbine. His way of bringing the truth through facts, legal officials and public opinion. He is also an American citizen living in the reality of this harsh land and has 2 views from a citizens side and from someone in a position to spread awareness. How does Michael Moore use logos? He uses logos by presenting the differences of what happens in the states, compared to what happens abroad. He would the differences by using videos and text. How does Michael Moore appeal to pathos? He appeals to audiences emotions by using music and visuals. Like the scene when he show's the inner workings of an American jail and how a inmate was being beaten by the guards. He paired that scene with some somber music. And the scenes where he was in the international community the music was upbeat and pleasant. Making you feel some sense of happiness and no worry. What is Michael Moore's telos? Micheal Moore purpose was to show how other countries handle their social and economics ills, in comparison to the U.S. And by these countries uses their methods, transformed their peoples total quality of life and self development. Also to inform that people live longer by enriching their lives. What is the kairos of this film? The setting of the film was to demonstrate that American is desperate for answers from anyone that can solve our social and economic problems. And that maybe travel abroad will have all the answers to our problems. If we try people with dignity, respect and love anything is possible.
