Throughout the whole film, the antagonist, the penguin, never spoke a word. Although he devised a plan to steal a diamond without himself having to go inside and take it, he did so without speaking.

When the wolf-like dog attacked Curly London described it in a very particular way. “There was no warning, only a leap in like a flash,” (London, paragraph 1). This shows suspense because it caught everyone- Curly, Buck, the reader- off guard. It is unexpected and a complete shock.

Renowned author Oscar Wilde once said, “the books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame” (Oscar). Wilde’s remark opposes the numerous efforts of many current governments to censor threatening texts. A multitude of books are banned because they showcase offensive themes; however, this depicts America’s appreciation of literature, or rather lack thereof. Books should not be banned because they reveal ideals and conflicts that many people can relate to. A literary classic, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, for example, should not be banned for its depiction of the moral internal struggle that age groups reading this novel endure.

Primary elections are elections held previous to a Presidential election to decide upon the presidential candidate from the two main parties. These are held in each state, each of which then goes on to sponsor the winning candidate of their primary at the national convention, where the party’s presidential candidate is announced. This method of choosing a candidate came about due to the McGovem/Fraser Commission of 1968 (where Mayor Daley refused McGovem the chance to run as he was too liberal). It replaced the old system of decisions being made in ‘smoke filled rooms’ where party bosses were all powerful and made the decision.
One of the ways that Spielberg conveys a sense of suspense in Jaws is by not showing the shark. He gives us man glimpses of it, such as the fin, and shadows accompanied by blood, but never the full until late in the film. I think this really helps us as the audience fear the shark more, as our imagination is forced to fill in the blanks, which sometimes creates something far worse than the actual thing.

Suspense is when the author makes the reader, or audience excited or scared for what might happen in the story, or even what will happen to the character next in the story. Suspense might even be something you see or hear that will make you have questions about what will happen next. If there is a cliffhanger at the end of a story, it will leave you with questions wondering what will happen to the characters next. The mood, tone, setting, emotions of character, sound and sight might affect how the story is suspenseful. We all enjoy watching suspenseful movies and reading stories, because they are exciting.

The author will give you clues throughout the story, to help you fill in questions you might have in the end. This makes it more exciting for the reader and the audience because we get to engage with the characters in the book or movie.
