Crime and Drugs in South Ozone Park I’ve lived in South Ozone Park, Queens for three years and throughout those three years my family and I have overall good remarks. South Ozone Park used to be a predominant Italian neighborhood, but over the years a lot of Guyanese individuals have occupied residency here, so that’s mainly the type of people you see in this neighborhood. There are of course plenty of people from other backgrounds; the whole area of South Ozone Park is pretty diverse. Italians
issues that may rise from those needs. Understanding the conditions of environment in which members of these community lives in, and how it impacts the members’ lives is essential in providing proper and effective care to their health. I will focus on Queens Community Board One for this Windshield Assessment. I have chosen this community because for the past 20 years of my life I have lived in both Long Island City and Astoria, which are two neighborhoods pertaining to this community. I have witnessed
SUNSET BOULEVARD Institution Name The movie Sunset Boulevard written by Billy Wilder highlights the screenwriter’s potential of making a reflexive film more than focusing on the style and aesthetics. The movie revolves around the life of a fallen silent movie star, Norma Desmond, and her fame delusions. With the introduction of the sound in the film industry, she is brushed off and forgotten not only by her associates but also by her dear fans. This lifestyle change caused her to be
Sunset Boulevard, directed by Billy Wilder features some very legendary and prominent actors as well as directors which helps make this film and instant classic. What makes this movie so unique is that there are both actors and directors in the movie who play themselves. The film stars notable actors and actresses such as Gloria Swanson, William Holden, Buster Keaton, Hedda Hopper, and Anna Q. Nilsson.

Sunset Boulevard is a film noir movie that was released in 1950. When looked at, the main character Joe Gillis, portrayed by William Holden, can be seen as an anti-hero. Joe shows his anti-heroic behavior in many ways. For example, he is dishonest, he uses the people around him, and he also is only focused on elevating himself. One of the many examples of the dishonesty of Joe. One of the most notable examples of his is when he meets Norma Desmond, portrayed by Gloria Swanson. He starts out being

Desperately Seeking Susan brought a new ideology to film making in that the film centered around two female lead characters, Madonna and Rosanna Arquette. It still followed the concept of the protagonist, Roberta, and supposed antagonist, Susan, along with a problem, seeking a new identity, leading to a climax, everyone in the same room, and eventually a resolution, a carefree Roberta. The films true nature is about a desperately lonely housewife who gets tired of belonging to someone else. She starts
In my favorite movie, Sunset Boulevard, Joe Gillis describes aging actress Norma Desmond as a "sleepwalker" when she refuses to let him cut a scene from the script she has written based on the story of Salome. Joe says that her fans don't need to see her in every scene and that the scene featuring her at the slave market should be scrapped. The resulting exchange is as follows: Norma: They don't? Then why do they still write me fan letters every day? Why do they beg me for my photographs? Why? Because
Dave Franco's face is ingrained in my memory: specifically, the image of Dave Franco's face, his expression oscillating between fear and bewilderment, as an axe-yielding Aubrey Plaza screams directly in his ear, trying to elicit a reaction from his supposedly deaf, mute character. Franco's grimace perfectly encapsulates the feelings that The Little Hours invokes as it illustrates a convent full of sexually deprived and morally depraved nuns.
