June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Trailer analysis
At the beginning of the trailer a conforming establishing shot pans
the scenic view of an urban city, Paris. It occurs at dusk suggesting
many scenes in the film will fall at night building the trailers sense of
enigma. The camera movement somewhat circles the cities
skyscrapers suggesting themes of wealth and business. The shadows
in the shot cascade over the city below where as the skyscrapers are
enlightened by sunbeams, this may infer the hierarchy of power
within the film suggesting the lower class, yet innocent people, are
those who get hurt.
3. VOICE OVER
The non-diegetic voiceover overlays the montage of clips from the
perspective of a character of whom we trust. The voice creates an
enigmatic atmosphere due to the content of the dialogue and the husky
undertones of the character. Majority of the diegetic dialogue in the clip
changes to non-diegetic as it turns into a sound bridge cutting to clips of
the content of the dialogue.
4. This trailer challenges the typical trailer and conventions of a normal neo noir film through
the inclusion of diegetic comedic dialogue in the scene involving the ‘Italian chef.’ The
inclusion of this scene promotes the film to have light hearted elements and as a result
more versatile to a variety of audiences broadening the typically niche genre. The camera
shots in this scene begin close up, this exaggerates the fearful facial expressions and
showcases the nervous sweat on the victim’s face. This is then juxtaposed when the non-
diegetic backing track is cut off by the sound motif of the trigger of the gun. The silence
emphasises the importance of the dialogue and the camera switches to a wide shot to fully
capture the comedic element by the location of the scene.
Challenging the conventions
5. At the beginning of the trailer a three way split screen occurs implying
multiple scenes of action are occurring at once. This montage of
synchronised footage suggests there are many branches contributing to
the narrative suggesting the film has a complex and intellectual plot line
for audiences to immerse themselves in. This fulfils the uses and
gratification of escapism once again.
6. In one sequence involving a suggested strip club chiaroscuro lighting occurs. This highlights the protagonists discomfort
in the scene. Because of this it is suggested that characters will be ‘pushed to their limits’ and audiences will witness
scenes of tension and discomfort themselves. The shades of blue depict the emotion of sadness and isolation typical
emotions characters face when within a neo noir film.
A generic convention of a neo noir film is for its trailer it feature an analepsis. This is prominent in the three days to kill
trailer with flashbacks and flash-forwards featured throughout. The flashbacks are made evident through various jump
cuts to different lines of action and multiple fade to blacks implying the passing of time and a shift in location.
7. FEMALE FATALE
The female fatale character is a convention of neo
noir films. Her costume of a dark trench coat
connotes a sense of power also reinforced by her
icy hair and bold red lip creating a dominating
presence.
8. TENSION
DYNAMIC
Further conventions conforming to the neo noir
genre are the multiple camera angles utilised
throughout the trailer. Multiple obscured scenes
and inverted frames contribute to the making of the
genre accompanied by Dutch angles. They are
featured in a montage of shots where a fade
transition is used to highlight the confusion of the
character. These angles provide an insight to the
delusional state he is exhibited to be in and creates
an erratic feel to the trailer.
ABSTRACT ERRATIC
UNSTABLE
MENTAL PICTURE
9. OVER THE SHOULDER
The over the shoulder shot positioned behind the main protagonist when looking at
his daughter evokes emotion amongst audiences. The shot suggests we will feel
compassion for his character and form a relationship through understanding his
viewpoint and being supportive of it.
10. FONTS
The non diegetic soundtrack of
the trailer runs parallel to the
editing screened. For example, as
the text enters the screen it is
amplified by an increase in beat
and sound of the backing track.
The entrance of the text fly in
from either side of the screen
followed by a colour trail of reds,
oranges and yellows. The colours
connote a sense of urgency and
danger heightening the tension
amongst audiences. This use of
colours makes the text seem
alarming and of importance so
are acknowledged greatly by the
audiences in return.
11. Iconography throughout the film consists of
high class weaponry such as the foot
detonated bomb, guns and violence. Further
iconography of neo noir is the dark yet
professional clothing worn by the actors and
elements of drug use (even though medical.)
These components together succeed in
creating a trailer fitting to the genre.
