1983

In the first video, what really stuck out at me was when the women started dancing int he streets, some men actually joined in also. In the article, it mentioned them pushing passed the stereotypical male worker and that symbolized the leadership role and somewhat rebellious role women were starting to take on. When the men joined in dancing, they didn't move to the front or push any woman out of the way. They actually conformed to the way the women were dancing and followed in their direction. They both have a strong message of how women started to speak up, but i think love is a battlefield had a little more perspective. It showed how Benatar was treated by her family and by males on the street before she and other women started to speak up openly in the bar. My video shows that society cares entirely too much about materials, and that the priorities of the 21st century are extremely out of order. My video is "Grapevine Fires" by Death Cab for Cutie. While watching these videos did not directly remind me of anything in my video, it did get me thinking a little more about what i need to look for in my video. Such as the background, settings, and the background characters involved. If i can have this much fun analyzing these videos that i don't really care for, i'm really excited to dig deeper into mine.
