A Comparison of Two Versions of The Big Sleep

“The Sleep” by Caitlin Horrocks basically tell you about the people in the small town of Bounty. Protagonist Albert Rasmussen wife was killed by a drunk driver on an icy road. In this town the people looked up to Albert Rasmussen because he was smart and decided to stay in Bounty after graduation. Albert had gathered the whole town over in his family room to have a discussion. This discussion took place “…before the cameras, before the sleep, before the outsiders, and the plan sounded as strange to us as it would to anybody” (Horrocks 104). This literally means that they didn’t have anything much technology and before they actually decided to sleep. In this short story “The Sleep”

“The Seems The Glitch in Sleep” by John Hulme and Michael Wexler. I think the main message is if you don’t solve the problem quick enough, the problem will get bigger. I think this because the the glitch is getting worse, if Becker doesn’t do something, the glitch will get worse. In the story, Becker had a very bad nightmare.

In the books The Big Sleep and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, both authors, Raymond Chandler (The Big Sleep) and Simon Armitage (Sir Gawain and the Green Knight), create the protagonist of each story into archetypal knights. The protagonist of The Big Sleep is named Phillip Marlowe and in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight the protagonist is named Sir Gawain. The 3 knightly qualities that we will be focusing on in this essay are self-sacrifice, loyalty and courage. These qualities are displayed throughout each story in different and similar ways throughout each book.

David K. Randall, author of “Rethinking Sleep”, best supports his argument . One reason is that Randall has credible sources that show examples of his claim.

The magazine article describes the stark contrast in the portrayal of female sexuality between pre-Code and post-Code movies. Pre-Code movies are flagrantly sexual; although some contemporary film critics believe that women were simply embracing their sexual freedom through these pre-code films, the marketing for many of these brazenly sexual films often included derisive comments from males, suggesting that the intent of overt sexuality in films was more crude. Post-code films often used screenwriting strategies to stay within bounds of the Code. Denby argues that this censorship actually created a net benefit for women, who were given stronger personalities and more interesting plot lines instead of simply being sexual objects. The article suggests that censorship led to the inception of the screwball comedy genre, which was forced to “create sex without sex.”

Ageism and rage are key concepts of All about Eve, Phoebe 2002, and film Showgirls. Women in each of these works experience an increasing concern for their spot under the sun, that is, their standing in the entertainment industry. They experience growing dissatisfaction with their age, and find themselves disturbed by the fact that their professional field prefers younger girls over them. Producers and directors use women as tools, and discard them when they unveil a newer and more profitable niche. Stars’ inability to cope with competition and unsuccessful personal relationships cause emotional disaccord; the best manifestation of fear of replacement main characters of All about Eve and Showgirls, Margo and Cristal, experience is aggression.

I decided to choose the real one because I thought it showed how Santiago gained knowledge, and had a great experience. I thought the other ending was good too, but I felt that it would confuse people on how the crystal merchant and Fatima got there. If you were wondering, they came together on a trip, and Fatima stayed at the pyramids waiting for Santiago. The crystal merchant and Fatima planned the whole thing. I thought that the real ending was straight forward, and even though Santiago ending up going back to Spain, it shows how he wanted to follow his Personal Legend. I felt that my alternate ending was very good too, but I could only pick
