The analysis was done using the descriptive analysis method with the film approach and the films are analyzed on both the narrative and cinematographic aspect. The result showed that two films show a lot of similarities since they were both made on the same story. The analysis of the narrative aspect showed that they have different opening and conclusion in plot, have extra more characters in the new film, as well as show different social setting of the film. The cinematic examination proved that the new film put more details on the props of cuckoo clocks made by Geppetto and the lighting analysis showed that the 1940 version used constant high-key lighting while the new version used both low-key and high-key lighting. The 2022 version also used various camera angles and movements, while the 1940 version used constant standard camera angles throughout the film. The overall analysis showed that while the old version is made simply for young audiences, the new film targets audiences of not only young children, but also young adults.","PeriodicalId":429925,"journal":{"name":"Lililacs Journal : English Literature, Language, and Cultural Studies Journal","volume":"466 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140469236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Golding, inspired by his own experience, crafts this brilliant narrative that wills its viewers to realise the sheer savagery human beings possess behind a veil of civility. It follows the popular narrative of characters having lost their way and finding themselves stranded on a deserted island. However, instead of exciting adventures with promises of mirth and triumph over the brutal forces of nature, Golding unravels his story to reveal the darkness and bloodlust in human nature that instantly begins to project on the loss of social order. He conveys his perceptions of the need for governance over humans because they are inherently violent. This research paper analyses the relationship between the characters to concepts of civility and savagery and explores the story’s subversion of the colonial narrative present in various other novels of the same trope. It also hopes to convey the criticism of the novel and its messaging and explain the significance and timeless nature of the novel that remains relevant to date. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":429925,"journal":{"name":"Lililacs Journal : English Literature, Language, and Cultural Studies Journal","volume":"45 39","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140464606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The participants were two senior high school English teachers and two junior high school English teachers. Interviews were conducted as the data collection and transcribed for the data analysis. The results showed that all English teachers had acknowledged and were well-informed of the benefits of extensive reading. However, half of them projected their positive beliefs through implementing extensive reading in their teaching practice, but the other half did not. The obstacles found in applying extensive reading were the students' need for more interest in reading, their lack of vocabulary mastery, and opposing views toward reading.

The plan is formulated with a top-down approach since each plan and move is decided by the actors or authorities on the upper hierarchical level (top) and centralistic. To understand how LL reflects the top-down tourism approach, any signs along the main road in the village were collected and classified according to the language use. Only two languages were found to be significant for this study: Indonesian and Sundanese language. The Indonesian monolingual signs dominated the LL in the area. The anticipated appearance of local language from the mobility of language in periphery and the anticipated multilingualism from the grand plan of Kampung Bahasa by the university does not translate into the LL.
