The Coen brothers can be considered an example of what not to do when first starting out as a writer and director in the film industry. From the beginning, they did not try to get a big name producer, go for big name actors, or write movies they knew would be hits. Instead, they raised money from the citizens of their hometown to make their first film Blood Simple, which starred pretty much no-name actors and actresses in an absurd plot. However, this put their name on the map, and it was because of that movie that we have masterpieces today like Fargo. They use their own techniques that, if tried by any other director, would seem forced, but when put to fruition by the Coens create a film that captivates many.…
When investigating a crime scene, many different variables are taken into account such as fingerprints, any other forms of DNA, or even clues left behind at a crime scene. Even looking at blood splatter, the forensic technician can conclude an estimated guess to the weapon used, the height of the person, whether it was foul play or not, and even if it was passive patterns or projected patterns. Blood splatter analysis becomes important when recreating a crime scene (Peschel). Bloodstain pattern analysis comes into play; and that is the interpretation of bloodstains at a crime scene in order to recreate the actions that caused the bloodshed (“A Simplified Guide”).…
The film “There Will Be Blood: is a movie about Daniel Plainview and his struggle to become a self-proclaimed oilman. In the film, Daniel is at war with mother earth in the fight for black gold. Throughout the movie, his ongoing battle alters his life in countless ways. It changes his family, friends and his frame of mind.

In novels it is common for the concept of love or sexuality to be present. This idea can present itself in many forms, and in both Jerzy Kosinski’s book Being There and Angela Carter’s book The Bloody Chamber this is illustrated. In both books the concept of love and sexuality can be seen in both dark and light contexts, with highly varying situations. In Being There and The Bloody Chamber the presence of genuine love, a lack of genuine love, and sexuality are all explored.…

Since the creation of religion, there has always been a debate to whether or not religion is the main cause of conflicts throughout history. In Karen Armstrong’s book “Fields of Blood”, she argues that people use religion as an excuse for the cause of wars and ignore all other aspects. Karen Armstrong is correct. Throughout history, there were many wars and conflicts that weren’t caused by religion yet many leaders used the blame of religion to their advantage to conceal their true intentions. Wars using religion as a cover up for power is shown in the expansion of the Islamic Empire and in ISIS, while motivation from religion opposes Armstrong’s idea.…

In the short story “Blood” by Zdravka Evtimova, characterization is a key element to the message, and mood it conveys to the reader. Early in the story, we meet a customer who walks into the store, and the author describes her in a very menacing way. “Her face looked frightened and gray. She approached me, her arms trembling, unnaturally pale, resembling two dead white fish in the dark.”Pg.1 This quote really set the mood for the beginning of the story. It also made the woman seem very desperate, and gave the reader a creepy chill, helping them to keep engaged. Another quote that displays characterizations roll in this story was at the beginning of the book, describing the main character; the shopkeeper. “Few customers visited my shop, perhaps three of four people a day. They watch the animals in the cages, but seldom buy them. The room is narrow and there is no place for me behind the counter, so I usually sit on my old moth eaten chair behind the door…soon I’ll have to close my shop and I’ll be sorry about it for the sleepy, gloomy, smell of formalin has always given me peace, and an odd feeling of home. “Pg. 1 This quote was perhaps one of the most informatics of the story, and gave reason to the shopkeeper’s bizarre, later actions. When it says in the quote “There is no place for me behind the counter” I believe Zdravka is trying to symbolize how the shopkeeper seems to not fit in society, and I was able to make this assumption based off of the characterization about the shopkeeper throughout the story. In conclusion I think there are many reasons why characterization is needed in writing. It gives more sense to the story, and tells us more about the characters. This draws in the reader, and helps them to feel more like a part of the story. If it wasn’t for characterization I believe blood would not be the same quality of a story that it…
