"Monty Python and the Holy Grail" is a satiric comedy about the quest of King Arthur. The movie starts out with Arthur, King of the Britons, looking for knights to sit with him at Camelot. He finds many knights including Sir Galahad the pure, Sir Lancelot the brave, the quiet Sir Bedevere, and Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-as-Sir Lancelot. Through satire and parody of certain events in history (witch trials, the black plague) they find Camelot, but after literally a quick song and dance they decide that they do not want to go there. While walking away, God (who seems to be grumpy) come to them from a cloud and tells them to find the Holy Grail. They agree and begin their search. While they search for the Grail, scenes of the knight's

When I was in the third grade I was extremely obsessed with the Nickelodeon soap opera, House of Anubis. If you’ve never heard of it before, it was centered around an American teengaer in a British boarding school where the faculty was involved in some strange cult obsessed with Egyptian mythology and “The Chosen One.” On top of that there was four love triangles, child kidnapping, carrot eating competitions, masquerade balls, a disturbing amount of taxidermy, and a crapload of other random things. Yeah, that existed.

The film Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a parody of Arthurian stories. It is a film that is not very elaborate on special effects, costumes and such as it even includes invisible horses with coconuts to mimic the sound of the “galloping” horses. All which indicate the low budget set on the production of the film. Although, the quality of the film does not suffer with it’s low budget since this adds uniqueness and more comical pieces to the film. The concepts triggered in the film come from elements of the Arthurian legends. The elements are concepts related to the education, health of the time, code of chivalry, divine rights, Christianity and social division.

Oxford Dictionaries defines the word responsibility as “The state or fact of having a duty to deal with something or of having control over someone” (1). From a young age, every person must accept responsibility for decisions that he or she makes. As situations arise that must be dealt with, people have a duty to deal with those situations. In many ways, the act of living itself is an act of ultimate responsibility. In Robert Penn Warren’s classic novel, All the King’s Men, the central characters of the novel all have to deal with the consequences of their actions, although many of the characters try to avoid this solemn duty of life. Through analyzing the actions and inactions of the central characters, many important lessons on responsibility can be derived from the novel.

Are Girls To Mean To Each Other I do believe that girls are to mean to each other because well with girls there's always something. It could be an argument, fighting over a boyfriend, something someone said on the internet, or they just don’t like each others. Honestly I don’t know why girls are even like that I mean us guys we don’t really trip off of what people say about us.

"The Graduate" is a great film, with Dustin Hoffman, playing Benjamin (Ben) Braddock, the epitome of the confused and isolated young adult male. Ben is confused about where his life is heading, he fumbles for an answer whenever one of his parents' friends asks him "what are you going to do next?" He stares mournfully into his fish tank, perhaps likening himself to the fish dwelling within it. He is trapped in this glass cube. This movie is for anyone who’s ever wondered what he or she are going to do with their future. Not a classic love story, “The Graduate” is a coming of age film. You can see that by the different types of love portrayed

“When I was your age, television was called books” (The Princess Bride). A quote from the timeless movie, “The Princess Bride”, when the grandfather is talking to his sick grandson about an old family tradition that was about to get passed down to him. The grandson had previously been playing a video game on the TV that he had in his room, when his grandfather walked in and told him he was going to read him a special book to make him feel better. Reluctantly, the boy turns his game off to listen. Even though the movie was not necessarily trying to make this point, it did show that kids were slowly becoming addicted to the new technology, and cutting themselves off from everything. Since those times, our

Cormac McCarthy’s No Country for Old Men has created controversial views on the significance of this novel. This piece involves a drug deal gone wrong when Llewelyn Moss, a veteran, happens to stumble upon three dead bodies, heroine, and a briefcase full of 2 million dollars. Told in different perspectives, the story continues with Moss on the run from a psychopathic killer Anton Chigurh in search of the money while also being tracked down by Sheriff Bell. Critics like James Wood from The New Yorker see this novel as “an unimportant, stripped-down thriller” solely based on the novel’s outer surface . On the other hand, William Cobb from the Houston Chronicle refers to McCarthy as the greatest living writer and that this novel “... has conjured up a heated story that brands the reader 's mind...and this is a novel that must be read and remembered”(Cooper 2). The literary merit of the novel becomes noticeable when looking beyond the thriller perspective. McCarthy’s literary merit in the novel is discrete, which is why it just appears to be a western thriller that many believe has no greater purpose other than an entertaining story. No Country for Old Men is a neo western thriller based on its writing style that divides the story into different perspectives containing elements such as fragmented sentences and untypical dialogue. The novel remains within the context of a 1980’s Texas plot which influences the diction so it can reflect a western atmosphere. Although it contains

First let me explain the roles of married Greek women. Women from this era hated marriage. They were not allowed to choose who they wanted to marry. If they didn’t love their husbands, they still had to get married to a man that they didn’t even know. During this era, a father would offer up his young daughter to get married, to join two families together. The fathers would look for a man deserving of his daughter, and offer her to him. Young women did not have any choice and they had to obey the will of their fathers or other influential male figures. Very often, there were unequal marriages. For instance, a 13-year-old girl could have a 50-year-old husband. Doubtless, this factor was very dramatic inasmuch as the age gap between husbands and wives was very solid. The result of such gaps was clear. Mature husbands did not treat their young wives like a wife should be treated. They could hardly talk about anything with them. Consequently, the only duties of a woman were having babies and household duties or taking care of the man’s needs.

The film that I choose to analysis is The Stepford Wives. The Stepford Wives is a Sci-Fi film which was released in 2004. It was directed by Frank Oz, who is famously known for his acting roles. Frank Oz has done the voice of Yoda in the Star Wars series, and several Muppets’ characters, such as Miss Piggy. There are three editions to this story, the book, the 1975, and 2004 film. The 2004 version varies from the others, as it has a slightly different story line. In the 2004 version, the women tend to hold higher up and specialty jobs, where in the other two, the characters were stay at home mothers with a hobby in photography (Thompson, 2009).
