Since the 1990’s Quentin Tarantino has been viewed as one of the most iconic directors of modern cinema. His most praised scenes are always his combat scenes, or the finals scenes of each film. While there are plenty of good combat scenes in each Quentin Tarantino film, the Showdown at House of Blue Leaves scene from Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) is by far the most beautiful and impactful. Kill Bill Vol. 1 follows an female ex-assassin- The Bride - on a brutal

Conclusion: Roald Dahl uses his characters to portray his personal views that troubles in life can be solved by rationalizing the situation before making a decision, that you should appreciate what you have, and that ultimately that everyone is a lamb, all with the power to break free of their

Was Al Capone the man who killed the seven men in Chicago on Valentine’s Day February 14, 1929.

Today in the world there are several men and women who once thought they had everything going for them. They had the money, the fame, and the fortune. Of course being caught up in the moment means no worry, no stress, and no problems. However, that doesn’t work out for everyone. One of those people are Alphonse Gabriel Capone or as you may know Al Capone.

In the era of The American Civil War their were many battles between the North and the South; also known as the Union and the Confederates. Although there were a lot of deaths in this war, The Battle of Gettysburg has been recorded to be one of the deadliest battles in history. The Killer Angels was written to be based on The Battle of Gettysburg; in which the author claimed that he wrote the story in a different angle than the way they teach it in “school”, the story was based on the perspective of the people themselves. (Killer Angels pg xiii) Although the soldiers had different motivational factors; I will go over the soldier’s reasons for fighting, the difference in the reasons that each side had, and the matter that enabled these men to fight in the face of death.

JFK was a leader whose charisma is unmatched during his presidency, while gaining popularity during a very progressive era, specifically Civil Right movement. Many Civil Right activists fought to end discrimination and segregation throughout the United State. The 1800’s is the most hellish era for African Americans, as they suffered lynching, being slaves, and brutally beaten by white people. While slavery was abolished in 1865, the hate crime and bigotry continued anyways as it wasn’t enough to stop the hatred. Many African Americans voted JFK in hopes of having someone that represent change into society for the greater good.JFK was a supporter of the Civil Right movement during his presidency, yet he never made it his top priority. JFK, who had few personal interactions with blacks in his life, was reluctant to address

A. O. Scott from The New York Times wrote a review of Kill Bill: Vol. 1. Titling this review as “Blood Bath & Beyond”. This title is not only accurate but it fits the theme of the movie by adding humor to an extremely tense situation. The film focuses on the Bride (Uma Thurman) as she starts marking people off of her “Kill List”. While the movie is not in chronological order, it is clear who she is killing, and especially who she is saving for last. The last scene is the unnamed main character creating this list, but this is actually the first thing she does, prior to killing anyone. The opening scene is the Bride being brutally beaten and is displayed in black and white. It is quickly revealed that she is bearing a child and after the harm she

Pulp Fiction is a black comedy, and crime movie that was written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. The movie features graphic violence, drugs, and a mysterious briefcase. Pulp Fiction tells several stories in a nonlinear way, meaning that the narratives are not told in a chronological order and do not follow the rules of space and time. The usage of a nonlinear format in Pulp Fiction was quite compelling as it did not follow the typical cause-effect sequence in any scene, instead Tarantino chose to open the movie with a non-typical effect rather than a cause.

Napoleon Dynamite is an over-hyped, poorly delivered, slow-paced film about Napoleon, a tall, lanky and red-headed kid who wants everyone to know he's lonely. It is set in the Idaho desert which perfectly reflects the dry humor forced throughout the film. The film was also poorly made and reportedly made less than 400,000 US dollars. I did not enjoy or get the appeal of Napoleon Dynamite, the film consisted of irritating characters saying unpleasant things to each other in a monotonous tone which was expected to draw out a laugh.

I was a little late on the Kill Bill train and did not watch the movie until last year. As soon as the film started, I knew that it was going to be extremely intense. The same goes for Pulp Fiction. These two films directed by Quentin Tarantino were very different from all the other films that I’ve seen in my life. The mise en scene, dialogue, and music, were all different factors that intrigued me. I watched Pulp Fiction after watching Kill Bill and at first I thought that Pulp Fiction was an odd spin off to Kill Bill or that it took place in the same kind of universe because the worlds are so similar, the characters are just as intense, and the amount of violence was just as common. These are just a few things that make Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill similar. In this essay I will be discussing more similarities and slight differences between the two films.

The trailer for Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003), the fourth film directed by Quentin Tarantino, is a fast paced, violent, and action packed trailer that pays homage to Japanese sword fighting, martial arts, and gunplay. The main character known as The Bride (Uma Thurman), is a former assassin whose former lover, Bill (David Carradine) attempted to kill her on her wedding day. After waking up from a coma, The Bride begins to tell her story about how she was attacked by the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, which she was once a part of, while pregnant. The trailer begins with the "click" sound of a revolver 's hammer being pulled back, and then firing. The camera is then positioned behind The Bride 's butt, as she begins to narrate her story. Frames of the bullet are shown as she talks, until it hits its victim - The Bride. She hits the floor in her wedding gown, after being shot in the head. A montage of violent sequences that start in an average suburban neighborhood, where she fights Vernita Green (Vivica A. Fox) in her own home, and leads to a Tokyo nightclub bloodbath, where she fights yakuza boss O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu). Contrary to your average movie trailer involving action and violence, the perpetrators of these violent acts are the female characters, instead of the male characters. The protagonist is on a path of retribution against the assassins who crashed her wedding and attempted to kill her, but despite the fact that there is a male member of the Deadly Viper

Oliver Stone’s 1994 classic, Natural Born Killers, excited and traumatized its audiences while also causing controversy. The tale of white trash lovers caught up in a realm of chaos that includes a continuous murderous rampage from state to state, draws in audiences with its graphic violence and riveting pulse inducing music. Yet, the message of this film seems to be much deeper than just exposing audiences to yet another chaotic action movie filled with guns, blood and mayhem. Stone’s Natural Born Killers examines the subject of media’s investment in serial murder very thoroughly, and so it seems likely that it has the potential to offer a more rigorous interrogation of the nature of the American public’s fascination with the serial
