Office Space Movie Review

Ah, The Sandlot. A movie full of fifth and sixth grade boys playing baseball in the Summer. If you think it sounds boring, you're wrong. This is an excellent movie.

Benjamin also had the same kind of conflict when he was devastated by the death of Gabriel.

Internal conflict revolves around fear that one can obtain as Winston Smith had to face the party. He wanted to maintain his values, which is his freedom of thought, trust, expression, along with the truth, as he faces conflict with the party, fighting against it to keep what he believes.

The TV series, which I have chosen, and believe to be one of the best examples of interpersonal communication behavior, is the American television comedy series called The Office.

The plot of this TV series revolves around documenting the lives, interactions, and interpersonal relationships of the manager, Michael Scott, and the employees that he manages, which include Jim Halpert, who is a sales representative and prankster, Pam Beesly, who is a receptionist, and Dwight Schrute, who is a high-ranking salesman devoid of social skills, as well as Stanley Hudson, Kevin Malone, and many other minor characters who play the roles of office workers, working in a variety of positions throughout the office.

The conflicts in this book mainly revolve around Paul and Erik Fisher. One conflict in the book is when Paul confronts Erik for making fun of the death of Erik’s football teammate, Mike Costello. Another conflict is when Paul is not allowed to play soccer at his new school due to being legally blind.

Another conflict is that when Paul transfers to a poor school called Tangerine Middle School he does not get along with his new teammates, Victor and Tino. Another conflict is that while houses in Paul’s neighborhood are being fumigated they are being stolen from. One last conflict is that Paul witnesses Erik order his friend Antoine to kill Tino’s brother Luis with a

The typical office scene around the globe is presented in both the British and American versions of The Office, but perhaps the most stereotypical aspect of the show is the characters. Ranging from the comedic bosses to the unique coworkers, every person in The Office has their own story to tell. Although the characteristics of the two casts vary slightly, the foundation that the characters were founded on is based on common perceptions of office
