.... at such grandeur; the makers of this film must have great expectations with such pride in their work. The introductory forward, which states that this is a movie about a great culture that had disappeared, impressed me and made me curious to see what life during those times was like. One of the theme of the film was activated when Scarlett O’Hara, the young heroine, was disgusted with the boys talking about war all the time. Her innocence and carefree nature could be seen in that scene. I was in awe with the lavish scene, beautifully costumed and photographed at the Twelve Oak’s ball and barbecue. Its magnificence suggests an idyllic culture with .....

.... influence on children. Unfortunately most of the programs watched by children have a negative impact and give the wrong impression of what really happens in everyday life. It also influences their development and their behaviours. "In fact childhood development experts say infants as young as 14 months old imitate behaviour they see on t.v and children up to the age of 5 lack the cognitive ability to distinguish fact from fantasy"(Internet; Children and television violence) Therefore what they see on t.v is what they are most likely to imitate. Cartoons are even showing numerous acts of violence and most of this violence is done by the "good guys". For exampl .....

.... become identified with death and bloodshed and shows his guilt in different forms. The first reference of blood is one of honour, and occurs when Duncan sees the injured sergeant and says "What bloody man is that?". This is symbolic of the brave fighter who been injured in a valiant battle for his country. In the next passage, in which the sergeant says "Which smok'd with bloody execution", he is referring to Macbeth's braveness in which his sword is covered in the hot blood of the enemy. After these few references to honour, the symbol of blood now changes to show a theme of treachery and treason. Lady Macbeth starts this off when she asks th .....

.... hold it fit that we shake hands and part..." (Act I, scene V, lines 132-139). It seems as if there are two Hamlets in the play, one that is a "sensitive and ideal prince, and insane madman, who from an outburst of passion and rage slays Polonius with no feeling of remorse (Wallace). After Hamlet kills Polonius he will not tell anyone where the body is. Instead, he assumes his ironic state, which others perceive as madness. "Not where he eats, but where ‘a is eaten. A certain convocation of political worms a e'en at him." (Act IV, scene III, lines 20-21) Hamlet's behavior throughout the play, especially towards Ophelia, is inconsistent. He jumps into Ophelia' .....

.... going to Vietnam. America was there to stop the spread of communism, also known as containment. Their goal was to contain communism. The three heads represent the three communist countries, two of which were super powers. One head represents Russia, definitely a communistic super power, one head represents China, a communistic super power of that time as well, and the third head represents Vietnam. This was represented as a group of monolithic communists. Another myth present was "Peace with Honor". This was President Richard Nixon's slogan while negotiating with North Vietnam to withdraw their troops. As the war went on and we continued to lose more an .....

.... our death beds we have flashbacks of our lives, as if we are searching for something that will allow us to live on. Many people try to accomplish heroic feats to gain immortality. The thought of being remembered as a hero allows the fear of death to diminish. Throughout the play "Antigone," Creon makes many choices and decisions which bring about his downfall. Due to these decisions, he is known as a tragic hero. A tragic hero is described as a person of high or noble birth, who is virtuous but not overly just, and through some tragic flaw brings about their own destruction and gains wisdom through suffering. In order to be a tragic hero, you .....

.... of an incestuous relationship between Oedipus and Jocasta, her cursed family history suggests that she too is subject to the curse. The acts of Oedipus are contrary to the gods and the deities must reconcile all products of his deeds. Thus, Antigone is doomed from the moment she is born, her acts of civil disobedience are just the strings the gods use to manipulate their puppet. Next, Creon’s pronouncement that Polyneices must not be buried pits Antigone against earthly law, and it is the will of the gods that she bury her brother because that is the only just action. Antigone, from the moment from the declaration, is destined to die because it is her fate .....

.... of us do not realize just how important it really is. Changing the direction, intensity, and distribution of lighting can create depth, dramatic effects, emotional mood, and atmosphere. There are two different intensities of lighting, low-key lighting and high-key lighting. In the scene where Joe Sullivan escapes from prison, Pat is waiting in the car and all that you can see is her face, a result of low-key lighting. The use of this type of lighting is used to increase the intensity of the scene and define the mood. By directing their attention to Pat’s face, the audience can concentrate on her facial expressions and sense her fear. The direction of the .....
