Richard Berry

Heaney’s poem Blackberry-Picking uses very compelling word choice. There are many things I noticed within it that are interesting. First, Heaney uses first person plural pronouns for most of the poem, implying that there was another person picking berries with the narrator. “We trekked…”, “...our boots.”, “Our hands…”, he uses these pronouns a lot, so it is obvious the narrator wasn’t alone. This may be an important, easily overlooked clue to the theme of the poem. The lesson of the poem is, stated

The poet achieves this meaning through diction, imagery, and figurative language. Heaney first creates a vivid image through descriptive words given such as “a glossy purple clot” and “wet grass bleached our boots.” It is clear to the reader that the speaker and the speaker’s partner seem to have a romantic or deep connection similar to the experience of blackberry

The poem “Blackberry-Picking” is about a young man’s coming of age, and how the lesson he learns, about picking blackberries, relates to the human realization that reality is not always how we want it to be. Seamus Heaney illustrates this lesson by showing the narrator's unabiding desire for the blackberries when he speaks of the “lust for picking” and how he was willing to go out in the fields to pick the blackberries despite having to go “where briars scratched and wet grass bleached our boots”

The speaker had a jubilee picking the berries. Picking berries was not just an everyday task; it required every container available and hiking across numerous fields, but the speaker had no problem with this showing this was a merry time. Heaney uses further symbolism with the line. This is the longest

Oprah took a magnum opus, Their Eyes Were Watching God, and remade it into an entirely different story that did not comply with the book. By altering Janie’s character, moral fiber, relationships, and public acts, it changed the meaning of the novel. The symbolism and the significance of the title varied from the book and the story morphed into a tale of love when made into a movie.

However some of the audience may be confused if they had not seen previous X-Men films. As the film does not make it clear what is going on or where they are.  However not all the special effects are as good as that. Once again we see Storm's (Halle Berry) powers come to life in a way which does not suit this film at all and would look more at home in a horror film. The special effects used for Storm do not look real at all and it's obvious that they are computer generated. If Brett Ratner can't give
