The Cross and the Swtichblade

This has led to David doing very little for himself as he knows it will be done for him. “Interpretive theories argue that the most important influence on individuals’ behaviour is the behaviour of others towards them” Marsh et al (2009) P.72. By being in an environment where David isn’t required to do anything he has learned not to bother and everything will still be done for him.

One thing that it really prompted me to think about was the effects hunger and food insecurity has on its victims. It showed me how only a few weeks of hunger can affect a child for the rest of their life. For example Barbie’s son. Because of the hunger they endured her child has speech developmental problems. Other things that the movies prompted me to think about was how sad and grave this problem is for the people affected and America as a whole.

David was always a type of person inclined to be melancholy. He was always a religious person. He made sure that he did everything right, because he was afraid of death. He performed all the duties of religion without a true conversion.2

Although both the previous events did put David into an adverse position, the following experience changed David’s outlook on life for the better. Finally there was someone to tell David the true meaning of mankind, Uncle Axel. Uncle Axel tells him to be proud of his telepathic abilities, instead of praying to be what everyone else thinks is the true image. Uncle Axel also changes David's outlook on the true image of man, he explains to him how it's not one's physical features that define him, but what's in his mind.

My views on this heart moving film would be never to give up in life, and with the right amount of determination you can succeed anything. The film tells us the simple, but moving story with a skilled storyteller's voice. The great importance of their

Everything David did that was courageous. Most importantly, he survived the Nazi’s horrible control, showing his mother had influenced him. Even though David had a difficult childhood, David’s mother helped him a great

In conclusion I feel that the film was a great addition to the story and helped a great amount to the understanding of what was happening. Both the film and the story had their similarities but they both came to the same conclusion point. All in all I think that the the film and the story summarized the plot very strongly and that they were very detailed in describing all of the conflict between the different

He was thankful that he survived through all of the troubles he had to go through by the support of his family. Although David questioned his religion, he believed in stories that he

I am constantly reminded of the verses of David; who observed the natural world around him and found its creator, God. In Psalm 8, the psalmist wrote:

In the movie ,The human experience, is 3 differents experiences from homeless to abused children and many african people being sick. The experience the young man went through can really change how someone feels and change their mind set. This helps society a little by seeing other peoples point of view and how their is people who have it worst and we should value life and how we need to find who we are. We find healing and forgiveness by loving our self by valuing life how it is and making the best of it. We need to find our self to forgive and to heal to know that life is a treasure. We do mistakes and learn but sometimes we should have our feet in the ground and appreciate everything we have and the people that surround us because everyone is valuable.

In the end, I think that The Pursuit of Happyness is a pretty inspiring film. It presents to us the struggles that many face, especially in the poorer parts of the world. It shows us that we can achieve anything as long us we put our minds to it. It is an eye-opener that tells us we should do the best in everything we do. After all, we are the masters of our own lives, in a final analysis.

I choose this film because it is an impacting film on the 20th century. It is about the holocaust and how the Germans had treated Jews in the early 1900s. This movie was a tear jerker and had hit me that this really happened. Throughout my elementary, middle, and high school career we always talked about the holocaust in history class. It was always an interesting topic for me and seeing this movie had put those words and pictures into perspective. In present day all we have are stories and leftover remains and structures from that horrible time. This is a topic that everyone knows more than about all the wars that have gone on. The holocaust is a topic that if you were to go up to a random civilian and ask them

In this film a father attempts to protect his family from the horrors of WWII. This film caused me to react the way I did because it reveals to an audience how powerful optimism is even if it seems like the darkest of times. It also challenged my understanding of the world by seeing how preserving our own child-like innocence can shelter us from life problems we may encounter, such as war, stress, financial issues, etc. Life is Beautiful is a film that changed my understanding in just simple concept and is beautifully

It was filled with excitement and a unique exhilaration that can only be felt when you practice such an extreme act as zip lining so high through abandoned and destroyed buildings. I lived the scene through the book as well as in the movie. The moviemakers did a fantastic job with the scene. The cinematography of the movie seemed to stand out during Tris’ and Four’s fear landscapes. The angles and effects made me feel like I was right there with them going through their fears as well. The rest of the movie wasn’t memorable when it comes to camera angles and special

This film honestly made me realized numerous things about how life is and the cycle to it. The examples they gave about heroes in movies actually helped me understand the cycle because it is extremely complex. This film also points out how every hero is similar and have many things in common. It all begins with status quo and then continues with assistants, departure, trials, approach, crisis, treasurer, result, return, new life, resolution, status quo updated. Us humans leave our comfort zones and have an experience that transforms us, then we recover and do it again according to the film. I feel that I could relate some parts of my life with this. For example, I left my comfort zone when I decided to tryout for color guard or when I had
