The film will not be naturally interpreted in this way, and will be hailed in the latest of a series of sentimental portraits of great teacher, which include "The prime of Miss Jean Brodie and Mr. Holland's Opus". Both films are enjoyable, but none of them have the courage to risk into the tricky ethical situations of The Emperors's Club. The movie is too organize or methodical, but it doesn't avoid the hard question. Mr. Hundert is

I don’t work at Marcia Blaine, and I’m not a teacher but one thing I do have in common with Miss Jean Brodie is I have my own little ‘Jenna Douglas’ set. Similar to the girls in the ‘Brodie set’, we look alike on the outside but on the inside we stand out from each other for having different strengths.

Through the omniscient viewpoint, readers can think in many different ways about everything that occurs in the novel, regardless of the writers’ intentions.

brilliant does not mean we can associate his kids with the same thing. Jefferson had sexual liaison with his slave, Sally Hemings, and when most people would be embarrassed to be having a relationship with a slave, Jefferson did not care. Fawn M.

What does Thomas Jefferson and Amy Winehouse in common? Obviously not the winged eyeliner, nor the drug addiction tendencies, yet I argue some of their most well known and popular work are almost parallel when taken out of contexts.
