John Ford’s acclaimed film The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) is well-known among cinema buffs and historians to have emerged out of a brutal, often contentious process. Tension between the lead actors, as well as tension between the actors and the director, spawned some of the best behind the scenes stories of on-set rivalry and outright pettiness that still circulate in an industry that is primarily built on controversy and rumor.

First cultivated by studios such as these were silent black and white films, with each major production company developing and establishing

Bounty hunter Levi Owens glared at the wanted poster one last time. He folded the tattered notice and slid it into his vest pocket. All he needed was two weeks to track the swindler and another to drag his worthless hide back to Austin. All he wanted—was to shoot him dead. His pack mule kicked out and Levi cursed its previous owner. A poorly trained animal took a lot of work, but right now, it was all he could afford. He loaded the last bag of the provisions on the mule and pulled a tarp over the

to face. People in the 1930s created stereotypes of cowboys in their heads. Cowboys were not the heroic, horse-riding outlaws everyone imagined them to be back then. They did not do any of that.

The Story is “what” the film is about and the plot is “how” the writer unfolds the action in the film relating to what the film is about (Goodykoontz & Jacobs, 2014, p. 54).

Logos, Ethos, and Pathos, Anti-Gun Control From the founding of our country up until modern times there has been a separation on the beliefs of civilians owning guns.

High Noon is a story based around the protagonist Will Kane, who is the target of an outlaw arriving on the noon train. Similar to this story is "The Most Dangerous Game". It composes of Sanger Rainsford, who is hiding from a murderer and must stay hidden for three days to be considered the winner and also stay alive. These two stories are

By the 1850s sectional tension had spread across the nation. The lack of a solution to the issue of slavery that would appease both proponents and opponents of the issue increased this tension. The Constitution was written as a document to bring the nation together but was beginning to tear it apart. The Constitution was vague in terms of addressing slavery within the United States, causing arguments made by both sides of the issue to further polarize the nation. The statement, “By the 1850s the
