being horror (thrillers). Now while there a lot of horrors that come out every year (as I mentioned). One that caught my attention was “Don’t Breathe”. Not just because of the action and suspenseful drama packed throughout the movie, but because of the theme enlocked deep within and throughout the movie and the plot. I would go too far to argue that “Don’t Breathe” is the best thriller with a lesson in all of 2016! Fede Alvarez did a magnificent job putting together this film. It goes well with what…

Each student needs to justify why they made each frame the way they did. Everyone did theirs differently. My first frame was when Odysseus and his crew, returning from Troy, raid the village of the Cicones.

Breathe Me I am awoken by the faint, soft meow of the cat I’ve had for years. I wake and my first sight is her. She sits in front of me with her huge hazel eyes, long snow white whiskers, beautiful grey and white marking surrounding the frame of her tiny head.
