Throgs Neck in the Movie Summer of Same Directed by Spike Lee

Jasper Jones is a novel based Australian mystery and drama filled film directed by Rachel Perkins, which premiered in 2017. The protagonist of the plot is a 14 year old boy called Charlie Buctan whose life changes when the town’s only Aboriginal boy approaches his window in the middle of the night for help in covering the dead hanging body of Gywn Wishart from a tree. Charlie reluctantly helps in drowning her body into the lake, beginning their adventure to find the true culprits of the murder while unravelling many secrets and social issues. The film explores and shows its audience its genres of mystery, drama and thriller using the themes surrounding racism, secrets, guilt and sympathy through the use of cinematography techniques, sounds and the plot. These themes and genres of the film are supposed to be depicted in the collage titled “Charlie’s Mind Map,” which I constructed to show a finished product of the mind-map Charlie started in the film, yet with the addition of portraying its themes and genres to the audience of teenagers whom may have possibly viewed the film.

Over the years, Bensonhurst has diversified and experienced a remarkable amount of change, especially in terms of the population. Bensonhurst’s diversity is not limited to just those particular ethnic groups mentioned above, there are also a lot of Albanians, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, and more.  According to the statistics of the residents in Bensonhurst & Bath Beach Puma, NY, the most common country of origins is China, Ukraine, and Italy (“BENSONHURST & BATH BEACH PUMA, NY,” n.d.). While, there is a high relative number of people born in Belarus, Azerbaijan, and Uzbekistan. Whereas the most common race or ethnicity is white, Asian, and then Hispanic (“BENSONHURST & BATH BEACH PUMA, NY,” n.d.). This once again reinforces the idea that the authenticity of Bensonhurst is changing, considering the Italian population is no longer as prominent and predominant over other ethnic groups. New residents are replacing former residents and thus, causing a lot of diversity and modification. Currently, Bensonhurst, for the most part, is divided based on ethnicity. The 18th Avenue section is highly populated with Asians, whereas the “northern blocks, adjacent to Borough Park” are popular with Orthodox Jews (Mooney, 2011). The southern blocks, near the ocean as well as the Bath Beach part are popular with Russians. The division based on ethnic groups suggests a restrictive kind of mentality in which people would rather stick with their own ethnicity rather than engage and reside with those

Meanwhile, Route 44 crosses the southern section of the city. Residents will also find the ending points of Routes 53, 80, 27 and 106 within the town. Because the town is the site of a terminus of the MBTA Commuter Rail system, it is a popular place to live for commuters.

Red Hook’s story begins in 1636, when Dutch colonists settled the Brooklyn peninsula they called “Roode Hoek” for its red soil and point of landing that stuck into the bay. Red Hook ’s industrialization began in 1840, when the Atlantic Dock Company was chartered. Irish and German immigrants began construction on the Company’s Atlantic Basin, which served as an artificial harbor on which the shipyards would sit, allowing for Red Hook’s burgeoning shipping industry to take off. Red Hook’s pre-modern, heavily Norwegian identity began to slowly disappear with the completion of the Fourth Avenue Subway in 1915, which allowed Norwegians easy transportation to the nicer neighborhoods of Bay Ridge and Sunset Park.

A geometric character analysis is used to compare and/or contrast two or more characters to get a better understand of the relationship between them. A solid comparison allows the reader to get a clear understanding of how the characters relate. Using geometric figures to show the comparison really pops out to the viewer, showing the personalities of the character and how it relates to the rest of the cast in the story. In Tangerine, a plethora of character traits conveyed in each of the characters is seen throughout, especially in Erik Fisher and his father.

If a neighborhood this elegant is rarely used, it begs the question; why bother with its expensive upkeep instead of putting up modern developments? How does the preservation of St. James' homes benefit other

I visited the Newport Back Bay Visitors Center. It is located in the Newport Back Bay for people to visit and learn about the wonderful Back Bay that is only steps from our very own school, CDM. The history of the Back Bay goes back a long time. In the 18th century when the Spanish arrived in California places like the Back Bay were very abundant. However by 1975 less than 10% remained in-between Santa Barbra and Mexico. In 1960 plans were made to make the back bay a large marina with houses right along the water. But in 1967 when a group of citizens founded the Friends of Newport Bay they fought to keep this from happening. It was also founded to help bring attention to the ecological importance of the Bay and to help try and ensure its survival. As a result of the Friends of Newport Bay the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve was founded in 1975. Seven years latter in 1982 more land was added at Big Canyon. Five years later, in 1989 what is now known as Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve was established on the neighboring bluffs after the County of Orange acquired an additional 140 acres. Eleven years after in 2000 the Friends and the Naturalists joined forces to become the Newport Bay Naturalists & Friends. Most recently, in 2010 it was elected to change the name of this organization to the Newport Bay Conservancy, which is the name that stands today. The visitor’s center helps inform people of the intricate Back Bay, how it is being preserved,

Whether you are a resident or just visiting, you won't want to miss out on this gem found in Suffolk County on Long Island. An array of entertainment, food, and fun await all who venture to Patchogue, New York. It's not just a secret kept by the locals, it attracts party goers and food fanatics from all towns that Long Islanders call home. It would be impossible to make your way down Main Street without passing a bar, restaurant, clothing store, jewelry shop, or even a theatre. People of all ages bring their families, sweethearts, and best friends to spend their days and nights exploring this rapidly flourishing town.

2. The street in where we live is where the wealthy people live, so it’s not really crowded like in streets of the city. Besides, it’s actually distant from the city.. the noises and the poor. Basically a good place to refresh and rest your minds. To be honest, I’m not really close with our neighbours. They’re rich too and somehow, I always get the feeling they actually pretend to be nice to other people and have this evil back-up plan somewhere in their head. (Which I do not have of course!)

In a display of quiet courage, Atticus Finch shoots down old Tim Johnson. Jeremy and Jean Louise Finch, children of Atticus Finch, spotted old Tim walking erratically, as if his right legs were shorter than his left legs. “He reminded me of a car stuck in a sandbed,” said Jeremy Finch, “He’d gone all lopsided.” “I thought mad dogs foamed at the mouth, galloped, leaped and lunged at throats, and I thought they did it in August. Had Tim Johnson behaved thus, I would have been less frightened,” stated young Jean Louise. Tim Johnson was headed right toward the Radley House, tried to turn around, but was having difficulty. Sheriff Heck Tate had to shoot him down but it was a one-shot job. “I tried telling Mr. Finch that if I shot and missed then

My assigned multigenre project character is about Tom Robinson. He is first introduced in chapter nine, on the following page 100. Tom Robinson is illustrated as a Negro, that “lives in that little settlement beyond the town dump. He’s a member of Calpurnia’s church, and Cal knows his family well. She says they’re clean folks” (Lee 100). From this short little summary, it’s possible to conclude that Tom Robinson is a dark-skinned (Negro), poor man (lives near the town dump), who is in need of a lawyer (Atticus is a lawyer). I feel that Tom Robinson is going to be a very substantial character in this particular book because of Atticus’ decision to support a Negro when himself is a white male. Since this book is set in the early 1930s, it’s around

Linden Blvd., which is the most centrally located road is commonly referred to as the “spine” of St Albans and is vastly populated with Caribbean eateries, beauty salons and supply stores, laundry mats, delis, fast food restaurants and churches that seem to populate every block. Along the outer edges

Greenwich Village is a known territory for sizable homosexuals; gays and lesbians. The huge numbers of homosexuals in the region may be due to the influx of men and women who earlier served in the military. The increasing population of homosexuals in the region encouraged the New York City to pass laws against homosexuality

It seems the south Brooklyn neighborhood known as Carroll Gardens is a victim of its own success. For the better part of the 20th century, this small neighborhood community, which is partly framed by the Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) and the Gowanus canal, was populated by working class Italian immigrants and their families who created a rich Italian American imprint on the area.

When deciding what movie to do for this particular paper I faced a few issues. I knew what the requirements were, but I wanted something different and something I could have fun watching and writing as well. So, after looking around and pondering movies for weeks I finally decided on a perfect choice The 60's directed by Mark Piznarski?
