Personal Statement: If You Like French Bulldogs By Wes Anderson

As I was browsing Netflix for a new exciting movie, I came across a new movie for one of my most favorite actors, Nicolas Cage. As known, Nicolas Cage is famous for being an adaptable actor in which he appears differently in each role he plays. His wide variety of experiences in acting has also given an impression to his viewers in which he could be perceived as an unpredictable actor in each role he plays, and that is one of the reasons why I like him.

Napoléon proved that Greenblatt's essay is true. That there are pigs in every society, he wanted all the power and be the center of everyone's attention. Napoléon didn’t like snowball's idea about the windmill, when it was snowball's idea. However, he really did like the idea. So Napoleon chased snowball out of the animal farm. Once that was done, he took all the credit for the windmill idea. During this the animals were building the windmill, but Napoléon was sitting back and doing nothing. It became necessary to elect a president. There was only one candidate that wanted the job so Napoléon who was elected.

I have like art since i was in elementary school. I had always enjoyed going to art class and learning new things and practicing them when i had a chance to do use it. I have like to draw or sketch things out. Art got me to become an extroverted

Since I was a child I have always enjoyed a wide variety of music. This would include: Queen, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Boy George, Journey, Cyndi Lauper, Clint Black, Blake Shelton, Matt Maher, Hill Song, Beatles, Elvis, Bach and Beethoven to name a few. For me music fills the soul and creates so many emotions and memories that are so vividly represented it feels as if the event just happened. My interests in music vary widely within most genres.

“I love music, and I listen to it constantly, and obsessively. I enjoy spending time with friends and equally spending time in my own company, I really enjoy traveling and exploring new places, exhibitions and current affairs. I love to watch films. I don't think you would find a designer who would deny that their work is informed by their interests. They go hand in

My favorite hobby is the sport of running. I have been actively practicing this sport since I was 10 years old and in 6th grade, and have exercised this through running for Cross Country, Track & Field, and most significant to me, annually training for and running the LA Marathon. My other hobbies and activities include general fitness, pursuing a healthy and nutritious diet, adventuring outdoors, hiking, climbing, visiting new places, listening to music, and most importantly, doing all of this with family and friends.

I am a writer. I love creating my own stories about whatever comes to mind. I like writing stories about adventures and mysteries. I like to watch movies with action and then go back and write about the movie, but with my own twist on it. I started to do this after my first discovery of a mystery book called The Hardy Boys by Franklin W. Dixon.

Today’s society is essentially powered by consumerism, capitalism, and the media; supplying people’s thoughts, behaviors, feelings, and lives. The psychological novel, Fight Club, by Chuck Palahniuk, uses a man’s need for a male role of identity to fit in into society as a way of showing how consumerism can be threatening a man’s identity and masculinity. Palahniuk explores the life of a man who in an attempt to break free of a capitalist society forms a clandestine “fight club” as a form of rebellion towards society. Palahniuk illustrates in, Fight Club, a character that, challenged by today’s consumerism culture, struggles to find his true self-identity and express his masculinity.

In Chuck Palahniuk, novel Fight Club, it appears that freedom and the pursuit of happiness was the fundamental reason for the creation of fight club. However, fight club seems to lack any real freedom only representing a place of dictatorship where its’ members are imprisoned by their core belief that

Interestingly, I find my love of music has a strong correlation to my interest in science and engineering. In both, there is a pursuit to explore, discover, and create.

Those of Generation X found themselves born into a unique situation that generations before had not. They were born into a society fueled by rampant consumption of material goods, accelerated by the constant advertising of corporations. Many of Generation X found themselves drawn to the idea of rejecting this culture of consumption and the practice of identifying themselves through what they buy. Instead they look to find themselves in different, sometimes violent ways. In Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk, the unnamed narrator begins as someone living the perfect consumer life, letting his Ikea furniture define him as an individual. As the novel progresses however he develops an alternate persona of Tyler Durden who rejects the consumer culture, like many of Generation X. They are outright disgusted with the society they were born into and as a result reject the blatant love for material goods and the idea of one’s worth or identity being defined by what goods they have accumulated and instead seek a new way to self identify and find happiness but find more problems along the way.

My biggest two interests are stocks and music, specifically Kanye West. If you were to ask me why I like stocks I wouldn't have an answer for you because even I don't know. All i know is that they interest me for some reason. I love Kanye's music mainly because

First you probably need to know a little bit about me, I love watching sports mostly just football and basketball, I like playing video and I love watching movies especially from the 80s, for example some of my favorites are the back to the future trilogy, the first three Indiana jones movies, Ferris Buller’s day off and the Breakfast club, just to name a few. I remember the first time I watched all those movies. I remember me, my dad and my brother went to blockbuster and we rented the Indiana jones movies, the first time I seen them I was terrified, then in grade eight me and a few friends had a movie marathon and watched all of them at once, we also did a star wars, lord of the rings, and Rocky movie marathon. The first time I watched the breakfast club and Ferris Buller’s day of I was in my basement with my brother. I know that sounds like it has nothing to do with me and who I am as a person but I love watching movies and watching those kind of started my love of movies.

The movie I have chosen for my review paper is Schindler 's List. The film was directed and co-produced by Steven Spielberg. Schindler 's List is an American made movie although it was filmed in Poland. I chose this movie because I am interested in history and in World War 2. The setting takes place primarily in Krakow, Poland during World War 2 (1939-1945). Poland was under German occupation at the time. The setting of the film shows us the Holocaust and the mistreatment of the Jews. This makes it of historical importance in understanding its social stratification value. It was especially important to Steven Spielberg because he is also Jewish and his family has direct ties to the Holocaust. The social stratification concepts I chose are social differentiation, social inequality, and the stratification systems. Specifically the slave and social class systems. Social Stratification is defined as “A form of inequality in which categories of people are systematically ranked in a hierarchy on the basis of their access to scare but valued resources.” (Thompson, Hickey 199). Concepts of social stratification revolve around inequality, differential treatment, and unequal access to wealth, power, and prestige. The plot of the movie revolves around these concepts with the differential treatment of the Jews by the Nazi Germans. This is what makes these stratification concepts sociologically important. The plot shows how the Jews were stripped of their wealth, power, and prestige.

Have you ever thought about what kind of movies you have watched and why you have watched them? Ever since I was a child, I always liked watching movies that had unique and interesting characteristics in it. My parents told me that when I was a child I never wanted to watch movies that were long and had boring plot. They tell me that I was very fussy on what movies I wanted to watch, and that I always watched movies that encouraged or taught kids something good about behaviour or environment.. Since my parents told me this, I can now very much relate to my childhood and I think that I have not changed at all. This is because I am still very picky about the movies I watch. All the movies should have certain characteristics such as acting, villain, and plot in order to be considered good movies by the audience.
