In the novela Pedro Paramo, Juan Rulfo uses religion as a symbol that contradicts with the characters lack of morals and lack of faith. The town people of Comala are obsessed with the thought of afterlife, pray and attending church regularly, but these habits that have lost their true meaning. Rulfo uses these symbolic activities to make the characters nihilistic and initialism natures more apparent. Father Renteria plays the God like figure, being that he is the only priest in the novel allowing

In Juan Rulfo’s Pedro Páramo, various forms of oppressive behavior are manifested in the town of Comala – these range from the simple, readily apparent abuse of power to keep a population in line, as Pedro Páramo, having complete control over Comala, regularly does, to the very sinister use of religion as a means of reinforcing the patriarchal ideal held by contemporary Mexican society.

What is interesting, however, is that despite the vast differences in culture and time, a comparison can be made of the authors' treatment of Christianity

A film that I found to be interesting and entertaining was Volver (2006) by Pedro Almodovar. Almodovar is a director that received acclimates of being a very distinct auteur very early in his career. Almodovar’s style and influences are prominent all throughout Volver. I will be discussing Volver and how it has become a typical icon film of Almodovar’s work. Many of Almodovar’s film are reflective of his upbringing. Almodovar said, “You can say my films are melodramas, tragicomedies, comedies or

Pedro Paramo is a novel that cannot be fully understood without consideration of its rich cultural background. It is this Mexican background, which informs so much of the novel, providing the main conflict. The narrator of the tale remarks “some villages have the smell of misfortune” while describing the locale of Pedro Parámo, the small Mexican town of Comala where the story plays out on many levels (83). On the surface level, this story is merely about a tyranical man who ruins his hometown of

explore the boundaries of sexuality and sexual chemistry between different kinds of people and imposes in his film. Just as all the auteur directors such as “Alfred Hitchcock”, “Tim Burton” and “Penelope Cruz”, the most important factor that indicates Pedro Almodovar is worth the titled of “auteur” is that Almodovar uses certain actors and actress repeatedly in his films and these actor often helped him to mark his film as an original creator of the theme. All of the above that I mentioned can be easily

The relationships between Dr. Andrey Yefimitch Ragin’s and Mihail Averyanotch, Pedro Paramo’s and Dolores Preciado, and Elesin’s and his new bride; all support Mill’s position that individuals may use impose their individual beliefs, such as their superiority, on others which might prevent people from forming their own individuality.
