Think back, what are some of the most memorable movies that you have ever watched? The Shawshank Redemption may immediately come to mind, or perhaps Forrest Gump might barge through that door first. Regardless of your answer to the question previously posed, there were reasons why those two examples captivated people the way that they did and still do. Timeless movies all happen to share one thing in common, they have the capability to leave a profound message on its viewers. By eloquently excavating

There are taboos in this world, too hideous and ghastly for the general public, far beyond our normal day to day lives. However, some authors want to thrust these taboos onto the population and make people live some of the fear, gore, and wretchedness that follow these subjects. Herman Melville and Thomas Harris share many similarities in their writing styles, between their popularity and their deep and meaningful narratives that they have within their novels, specifically, Typee, The Silence of

In The Silence of the Lambs, both the book and film have the same storyline of Clarice Starling, a young U.S. FBI trainee, seeks the advice of the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecter to apprehend another serial killer, known as "Buffalo Bill". When she uses Dr. Lecter’s help to capture “Buffalo Bill,” he somehow escapes out of the prison he is in. But in the end, they are able to capture “Buffalo Bill,” but Dr. Lecter was never found. He did, however, call Clarice and told her not to search for him, and

The Silence of The Lambs      Clarice Starling, a student preparing for a life in the FBI, hunts a serial killer by use of vague information given to her by an incarcerated psychologist. Hannibal “The Cannibal” Lecter relays information to Clarice in exchange for information about herself. The killer, known only as "Buffalo Bill", kidnaps large women, keeps them alive for a few days, and finally skins them. Clarice works against time as Buffalo Bill takes his newest victim, a U.S. Senator's

“The last thing you want is Hannibal Lecter inside your head.” It is a daunting task to effectively transfer textual tonality from page to screen. Balancing proper visual interpretations of the text with original insights is not an easy procedure, and not every filmmaker is equipped with the artistic skills necessary to complete such an undertaking. Alejandro Jodorowsky’s wildly unsuccessful attempt at adapting Frank Herbert’s Dune, for example, ended in bankruptcy for the studio and premature cancellation

Exceptionality and Geniuses The term ‘genius’ is associated with an array of diverse connotations. When reviewing the literature, it is vital to note that a specific definition and approach to measure whether or not a person is a genius, is rather complex. Garber, M. (2002) declares “genius” as a special inflation and over time has “become a commodity, an ambition, and even a lifestyle.” The underlying question is: how, and what makes an individual a prodigy? One may argue that completing an intelligence

day, traumatizing those who see them without having seen the movie. Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster), the protagonist, is a very hard worker who is blunt and concerned more about education and catching a killer, as she rejects advances by both Dr. Chilton (Anthony Heald), the asylum owner, and an entomologist named Pilcher (Paul Lazar) , who ask about her personal life. She is often enthralled with catching Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine) that even in one of the first scenes, she already has her sights on

Big Star returned in 1993 with a new line-up when guitarist Jon Auer and bassist Ken Stringfellow joined Chilton and Stephens. Auer and Stringfellow remain members of The Posies, founded by the pair in 1986. Stringfellow is also known for his work with R.E.M. and The Minus 5. Hummel elected not to participate.[19] First-era material dominates Big Star's performances, with the occasional addition of a song from the 2005 album In Space; Stringfellow recalled that during the 1990s, "We were working

The most recent George was born Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge on July 22, 2013 to Prince William of Wales and Duchess Catherine of Cambridge. His birth placed him third in line to the throne behind his father, Prince William, and grandfather, Prince Charles . Prince George joined a royal family tree shaken by Georges, and the new prince’s name called back to the Hanoverian times when four Georges headed the throne successively. This period was one where men of foreign descent reigned

King George’s reign of nearly 60 years was full of hardships and setbacks, yet he was a hard worker who was kind and looked out for the welfare of his empire. King George was the son of Frederick, Prince of Wales and the grandson of King George II of England born on June 4, 1738 (“George III”). At the age of 12, George became the Prince of Wales after the passing of his father. With the death of his grandfather, George became the King of
