Seinfeld Trip Part 1 And 2

George and Maggie have a dream they want to achieve. On their way to the ranch with Lennie. “O.K. Someday - we’re gonna get the jack together and we’re gonna have a little house and a couple of acres an’a cow and some pigs and -.” (Steinbeck, 14). Maggie comes from Southern Missouri and came to Los Angeles to become a professional boxer. George dreams of buying a ranch and Maggie comes from across the

Every time George and Lennie obtain a job, Lennie gets in trouble and they are forced to leave. But they hope after all of their intense work that they can finally have their dream and get a place that they can call their own, “we’re gonna have a little house and a couple acres”.

“That was a big thing in the South. You’re white, and even if you’re a Jew, since you’re white you’re better than a so-called colored. Well, I didn’t feel number one with nobody but him, and I didn’t give a hoot that he was black. He was kind! He was good! I knew that!”

George demonstrates how the dreams he made created a false security for him to rely on. George describes their dream to Lennie when he says, “O.K. Someday-- we’re gonna get the jack together and we're gonna have a little house and a couple of acres an’ a cow and some pigs and-” (14). George uses the dream to distract himself from his life as a migrant worker. The life of migrant workers, isolated and repetitive, usually ends in no success. Migrant workers often spend their paychecks on alcohol during excursions into town. This lack of success leads to a vicious cycle of endless work with no destination, meaning they never leave the ranch to start their own life. Opposing, George and Lennie have a hope for success and want to buy a house like in their dream. Before they arrived at the current ranch, Lennie’s lack of self control resulted in their quick getaway from Weed. On page 7, George exclaims, “They run us outa Weed,’ he exploded triumphantly. ‘ Run us out, hell,’... ‘ We run. They was lookin’ for us, but they didn't catch us.’” George wants to focus on achieving his dream but he knows that Lennie could potentially mess it up for both of them. In the end, Lennie eventually holds his reputation true and causes trouble on the ranch. As a result, George kills Lennie which ruins

Kevin believes that he is not racist, yet his actions betray an unconscious prejudice towards African-Americans. This is evident when Kevin reacts angrily when Dana refuses to type up his writing for him. “He really had asked me to do some typing for him three times. I’d done it the first time, grudgingly, not telling him how much I hated typing, how I did all but the final drafts of my stories in longhand. That was why I was with a blue-collar agency instead of a white-collar agency. The second time he asked, though, I told him, and I refused. He was annoyed. The third time when I refused again, he was angry.” (Butler 109) Kevin does not see that Dana has a choice whether or not to do this typing for him, and feels entitled to her time and labor. Another instance in which Kevin feels entitled to her time is when they first meet. “‘Buz told me you were a writer,’ said the voice that I thought had gone away. ‘Look, I can’t count with you talking to me.’ I pulled out a tray full of large screws—twenty-five to a box. ‘Take a break’” (53) Kevin ignores Dana’s request for him to leave her alone, and pesters her. Kevin assumed that he knew what Dana needed to do better than she did, and decided that whatever she wanted did not matter. Though he may have

They had an American dream, a dream, a life they wanted to fulfill and they were working trying to make that dream come true. They wanted to buy their own land and have a house on that land, alfalfa field, and rabbits, chickens, and a garden. A place where they didn’t have to take orders from nobody. It was going to be their own place. As George was going on he said something that really hit me hard in the chest and it was these words, “Guys like us got no family.

In 1990, "Seinfeld," a sitcom based on Seinfeld's humor, debuted as a summer replacement show. Seinfeld allowed characters on the show to embody some of the idiosyncrasies his stand-up comedy had observed. Seinfeld played himself on the show, and the other characters on the sitcom were based on friends and acquaintances in Seinfeld's real life. The show was set in a recognizable Manhattan with specific storefronts and locales in the cut scenes and dialogue. The plot of an episode of "Seinfeld" usually centered on the daily menial tasks of the characters and the little quirks that they observed along the way. "Seinfeld," widely

In the film, Danny and Derek are both influenced by the dinner with their father by referring to the Black teacher's views as "nigger bullshit" and cautions his son Derek that he "has to watch out for that." Derek replies: "Yeah I know. I get what you're saying. I will." Danny who was sitting on the other side was listening wide eyed. Danny seems to be stunned by what he has heard from his father. His "nigger bullshit" comment and other crude hits indicate that his views are motivated less by a concern for fairness than by feelings of raw hatred. Under Young’s explanation of cultural imperialism we can see how the fathers point of view is shaped by the culture he grew up in. Young states,” Cultural imperialism involves the universalization of a dominant group’s experience and culture, and its establishment as the norm.” Since their father grew up in the racial discrimination era he is unable to understand or accept the changes of equal opportunities for any

1) Lennie and George arrive at their new workplace, the ranch and meet an old man named Candy in the bunkhouse.

Seinfeld is one of those iconic shows to ever air on TV. It is one of those shows that everyone has either seen or heard of in their lifetime and for good reason. Seinfeld first aired on July 5th, 1989, and was first produced to be a comedy regarding every day relatable life events. The star of the show, Jerry Seinfeld, who is a comedian, was cast in order to put a funny spin on everyday life situations. It took place in New York in the late 1980’s and the 1990’s. Seinfeld started out as just another show on TV but grew in popularity and eventually became a common name in almost every household in the United States during the 1990’s. Today, Seinfeld is seen and remembered as one of the most iconic and popular TV shows to ever air. The show's plot was

Cheers, Seinfeld and Frasier each dedicated an episode to financial markets that closely paralleled the prevailing economic conditions in the United States.

The title of the source I listened to was “The pilot episode for the comedy TV show ‘Seninfeld’ formerly known as ‘The Seinfeld Chronicles’”. I think this TV show could be divided into two parts. One is Jerry’s personal presentation and another is comedy. In my viewpoint, this listening is difficult(rated 8) for me to some extent because of not only the speed, but also the logic. As for the speed, I think they talked so fast that I can hardly understand what they said at the first time, but after I repeated, I found that it could be easier for me. So what was the most difficult for me is the logic. When I listened this at the first time, I was extremely confused that how the event developed. It was just like a comedy that some people talked

Kramer enjoyed challenging his audiences and wanted to implement something into the script that would somewhat allow the audience view something they would not typically witness. For example, in the film we see the Kramer challenged the more legalistic Southern white folks with the scene of John and Joanna kissing on their way to Draytons. Kramer knew that the kissing scene would tick off the Southerners and as a result, Kramer had received a lot of negative comments and letters that had mentioned death threats after the film had been released. Katharine Houghton, who portrayed Joanna had also received death threats because she had done something

The transitions between the multiple one-on-one conversations that comprise the ending will elucidate the conflicting “sides.” And despite the inevitable conclusion, scene length will be explored in regards to retaining any semblance of suspense. As for establishing opposing sides, it is clear that Kramer wants to pit the women up against the

“If a white woman sees two black men walking towards her and turns the other way, she’s a racist. Well I got scared and didn’t’ say anything, and the next thing I knew, I had a gun shoved in my head!”
