Her bravery is demonstrated through her defiance of the Nazi regime, and her willingness to die to provide shelter and safety for a “dirty Jew”. Rosie’s ability to maintain her humanity is exemplified through her choice of colourful clothing. In a time of darkness and despair, Rosie chooses to stand out in vibrant attire, which symbolises her refusal to let these circumstances dictate her. The choice of colour on Rosie displays a visual representation of her inner light of hope, and resilience, which contrasts with the sombre clothes worn by others. Despite the chaos around her Rosies bold choice of clothing is a subtle yet powerful expression of her humanity and optimism, as she defies the regimes attempts to suppress individuality.

What might a person do if their girlfriend told them that she was pregnant on their 16th birthday? In Angela Johnson's, The First Part Last, a 16 year old boy named Bobby had to face this very question. Some people might be jubilant while some might be distraught.

The 1970’s was that really bad day, while the night of self- indulgence was the 1980’s. Americans love to escape from our daily stress, and of all the products that allow us to do so, none is more popular than the movies. Movies are key cultural artifacts that offer a view of American culture and social history.

CERN has failed to catch the attention and support of the American public at first.
