There are people that agree with that and many that didn’t think that it was so great. It was nice to know the background information on each of the character. This helped me know why they were there and why they would stay to risk their lives. It was clear that some of the members did not accept Skinner because of his color at first. It was nice to see everyone bond and even accept him and even apologize to him. They my not have liked each other at first, but at the end they risked their lives for each other. I also enjoyed the scenes with the dogfights. I was on the edge of my seat during everyone of those scenes hoping that none of them dould die and that they would defeat the enemy. I was sad whenever one of the members of the squadron died. I think that i felt this way because of their stories and how they all got so close. It would be horrible to lose someone that someone would risk their life to save. I would say that this team is kinda of like the team in Fast and Furious because they may be very different but at the end of the day they would risk their lives for each other. It was nice that there was kind of a love story also thrown into the movie. It provided sort of a break from all the war and sadness. It was funny when Rawlings was trying to impress the children and the girl he liked. It was also sweet when he tried to learn French for her, and she tried to learn English for him. I feel that this

Of Mice and Men Movie review ~ Erica Oversen Of Mice and Men is an excellent story about two ranch workers who have a dream. This movie is directed by Gary Sinise, and he also plays the role of George. There is one setback to this
The movie has some very positive attributes, starting with the island itself, it is very luscious and tropical, which when reading the novel is exactly what you envision. The director picked very good points in the movie to have sped up and slowed down, which added to the dramatic and thriller effect of the turning points and the climax of the movie. The movie really emphasizes the main characteristics of characters, with Ralph portraying the “good” character, and Jack portraying the “bad” character. The sound effects and the soundtrack is exceptional, and really captures the mood during all scenes in the movie. The special effects, props, and character’s material visuals were very well done. The offering to the beast was extremely
While reading Alas, Babylon, the middle section of page 85 stood out to me greatly, perhaps more than any other passage I’d encountered in the book up to that point. In that section, Randy and Helen have a conversation about how Ben Franklin and Peyton, Helen and Mark’s children, have
My opinion on the movie I watched, “The Outsiders” is that it was okay. I found some parts boring. There were some parts that was trying to be as emotional as the book and they looked very fake. The director of the movie was Francis Ford Coppola. The author of
In A Raisin In The Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. Broward College, Central Campus Theater in building 6, on Sunday, the 1st of November. The play was performed by Broward College students. The type of stage was Proscenium stage with extended apron. I thought it was a little bit small, but
Overall this book was very, very good. It teaches good morals in interesting ways, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who would like a good, nonfiction read. There are many memoirs but this one is sure to leave an impression on you. In other news, Paramount took the liberty of purchasing the film rights to The Glass Castle, a movie that should be extremely interesting in the coming years. I hope they do a good
Judas at the Jockey Club (3.) Austin Pabian As an American in the late 1800's, owning a farm was not too uncommon, especially if that farm was located in Mexico. At this time, though, Mexico was in the Porfirian Era (1876-1911). In this certain era, Mexico was being encountered by two very different cultures at the same time: the industrial, and the traditional. These distinctively separate cultures impacting Mexico made it as what can be described as "backwards" in a sense, as Mexico was practically regressing as the world around it was moving on to bigger and better things. Mexico was so behind that "many had concluded that Mexico had yet to advance beyond chipped rocks as utensils." (p.67). Mexico at this time had locked itself in
Great Leaders of the past, present, and the future Countless have said that all men were created equal, but what about the prodigious black men of all time. Were King, Douglass, and Obama all created equal, or were these men chosen to be predestined for greatness? What constitutes "greatness" in politics?
It was incrediably sad that in America a tragedy is usually the tipping point in changing our laws and views but, this is true with any issue in life and in every country that has ever graced this planet, a tragedy is usually the impetus for
It's telling of multiple storylines whilst allowing the reader to not get confused was incredible. The fact that it is non-fiction, and impeccably researched is equally wonderful. I would rate the book 9/10. It only lost points because it didn't give enough detail in some places, and it gave far too much detail in others. Finally, it used many eloquent words, including my favorite, vexatious. Anyone who wants a great read should definitely read the would highly recommend The Devil in the White
The Drop Box. Dir. Brian Ivie. Focus on the Family, 2015. DVD. The film itself is a documentary, meaning every moment has historically happened. The film is full of facts and elements that touches the heart. A reliable christian company has produced the movie, and has won many awards making it trustworthy. Though there are some facts there are also drama and opinions. Glady the movie uses facts to prove their opinions. The design of the movie feels very organized and formal. The film is a reliable source for the movie itself is just a visual record of historical events.
“When the official reaction to a person, group of persons or series of events is out of all proportions to the actual threat offered, when “experts” perceive the threat in all but identical terms, and appear to talk “with one voice” of rates, diagnoses, prognoses, and solutions, when the media representations universally stress “sudden and dramatic” increases (in numbers involved or events) and “novelty”, above and beyond which a sober, realistic appraisal could sustain.” (page 86)
A little bit about the movie: There was nothing in the movie that made the religion bad or not good in any way. The music in the movie also played a role, it gave it the positivity.
