.... society's mold, and is destroyed by her own pride. For these characteristics Antigone is given the title of an epic Heroin. Antigone is one of the lucky townsfolk to be born of a royal house, yet is unlucky to be born in the House that she is born into. As Antigone defies Creon's law, she is cast into a pool of danger between what she believes is right and what the state's law decrees is right. As Antigone is charged with the burying of her brother, an action which the King has declared unlawful, she holds like stone to her undying gratitude for her deceased brother. She holds to this thought because of the fact that she believes that her, who died figh .....

.... audience of the disharmony from Nature and viciousness of his spirit. As he hates "the idle pleasures of these days" and speaks of his plots to set one brother against another, Richard seems socially apart from the figures around him, and perhaps regarded as an outsider or ostracized because of his deformity. His separation from is family is emphasized when he says "Dive, thought's down to my soul" when he sees his brother approaching. He is unable to share his thought with his own family as he is plotting against them. Thus, we are given hints of his physical, social and spiritual isolation which is developed throughout the play. But despite these hints, he .....

.... entertainment and revolutionized the way we see the world. When television was first introduced, its main purpose was for entertainment. The picture was in black and white and there were only a few channels with limited selections. As time passed, people became more accepting of the new innovation; television sets were being found in more homes throughout America. This is when television began to take the nation by storm. Television slowly started to take over the lives of many. Families became less “family oriented”; family time, for the most part, was now spent in front of the TV. Dinner time, which used to be an important part of the day when ma .....

.... killer bimbo the way ahead?” (52) The tension between these opposed readings of Thelma and Louise comes from a similar tension within the film. Through a carefully crafted tension between realistic narrative and surrealistic image, Thelma and Louise problematizes such oppositional readings as well as such familiar oppositions as masculine and feminine, positive and negative images of women, reinscription and subversion of patriarchal ideologies. The tension between the film’s uses of narrative and image works to interrogate and problematize both feminist and antifeminist assumptions about gender, power, and subjectivity. In Alice Doesn’t Teresa de Laureti .....

.... and Guildenstern in Act 2 scene 2, Hamlet wishes they tell the King and Queen that he has "lost all mirth," in this world so "foul and pestilent." In his "To be or not to be" soliloquy, he expresses his despair through thoughts of suicide, suggesting that suicide is an easy way to end life's conflicts. But luckily he concludes that the fear of an unknown afterlife is what keeps us living. All of Hamlet's thoughts of despair can be understood when one looks at the horrible conflicts Hamlet goes through. Sorrow, perhaps the most evident emotion, is very well developed throughout the play. Initially, the only cause of Hamlet's sorrow is his father .....

.... to bad.” Hamlet fits these descriptions perfectly. The character of Hamlet is one just like ourselves, whom we can identify with. Even though he truly begins the play as a hero, and also ends as one, he and the people he comes into contact with during the entire play experience tragic losses and deaths. The play begins outside, on a very cold, foggy, dark night. The guards are watching the castle for fear that it may be attacked. This is to set the perfect mood for the tragedy that is about to unfold later in the story. Also, with lines like “Who’s there?” and “I am sick at heart”, the audience is already, in the first scene, given an indication that so .....

.... within reason. The story follows the prison life of Andy Dufresne and his eventual escape from Shawshank's walls. The movie follows a formalistic style of direction under Frank Darabont. He interweaves scenes with nice fluid shots. The shots are not jarring or rough cut. Darabont tends to take the story at a distance allowing the characters to establish their traits to the audience instead of pushing a barrage of angles at the audience. The position of the camera is intricately placed in all scenes. The movie is a perfect example of classical cinema. The most unique part about the style of the movie is in the cinematography by Roger Deakins. The whole story .....

.... to the audience. It would seen that he likes talking to himself about himself, which suggests he has much inner turmoil that he harbors close to his chest, but when the opportunity arises, he describes his deeds with a passion. In the first of these monologues, he makes his intentions perfectly clear. He implies that Othello has had an affair with his wife by stating "I hate the moor, And it is thought abroad that 'twixt my sheets He's done my office". The irony of this statement is that in the next line he says that he does not know it for a fact, but because he suspects it, he will act as if for certain! This gives me the impression from the beginnin .....
