Andre Westen Character Traits
Have you ever read a novel were the character’s appearance is described? You paint a picture in your head how that character look, sounds, acts, and speaks. Then finally when the movie comes out to theaters, the actor the movie producers cast looks nothing like what you had in your head. Let’s say the character in the book has brown hair but the actor they cast has blonde. It changes your whole viewpoint on that characters, but it doesn’t change the way you related to that character.

The movie is based on a true story about how Antwone, a young navy man, was forced to see a psychiatrist due to a fight he had with a crewmember.

They both knew that he [Antwone] did not want to be there and was only there because he was forced to…

    On March 10th 2017, Lavar Ball, father of Lamelo, Liangelo and Lonzo, made a comment on In the Zone with Chris Boussard that intrigued and shocked the sports world. Lavar Ball compared Lebron James’ sons to all of the other children of famous basketball stars; irrelevant, and stuck in their father’s glory. Regardless of their ages, Lavar felt it was necessary to bring Lebron James’ eleven and thirteen-year-old sons into the equation. Many sports analysts are having a difficult time figuring out why Lavar brought all this attention to himself. A father and manager who has done nothing but positively influence his sons’ career, is now negatively impacting it. Analysts question whether his most famous and eldest son, Lonzo, will have a difficult…

    The character's appearance plays a key role in a story. It can suggest his personality and his motives. Paul's physical appearance would be considered a key issue for this story. The text describes him as "very thin, with high, cramped shoulders and a narrow chest" (Cather 154). This is key because Paul wants to be something he is not. He desires to be part of a life he was not born into, and really he has no background in the arts, and hardly any knowledge of it. Stereotypically, a person that fits his physical description is considered weak, ignorant, and rather pathetic. So, the portrayal of an awkward-looking Paul is important for the reader to know what kind of person he is. The movie, on the other hand, casts Eric Roberts who does not fit this description at all. He is tall, good-looking, and his well-developed body is inconsistent with Cather's Paul. His age does not even to appear to be appropriate, because he is supposed to be a boy the age of seventeen. Roberts looks to be more in his twenties. These discrepancies will confuse the watcher of the movie. If he did not read the…

    Elie Wiesel is an amazing author. I have admired his work for a long time. When I was in the 8th grade, we read his novel "Night". I like books with a lot of detail. He packaged one of the most traumatic events of his life in a novel. Wiesel, and many other jewish people, spent everyday fighting for their lives. HIs words engulf the reader, their truth and pain standing out among the horrific scenery. Elie Wiesel passed away last year. His journey to the afterlife was well deserved after the world witnessed him conquer the Holocaust. A few years ago, he did an interview with Oprah in which the visited the Auschwitz Holocaust Camp. After watching the interview, with my English class, we discussed what were some of Elie's strongest qualities…

    The first European to arrive to the Midwest region of the US was Etienne Brule during the early 1600’s. In 1622 or 1623 he went around Lake Superior, yet the record of his excursion was just composed down from gossip after Brule passed away by Gabriel Sagard-Theodat. One of a kind data about Wisconsin additionally shows up on Samuel de Champlain's guide of New France distributed in 1632, two years before Jean Nicolet came to Wisconsin, and is dared to have come to Champlain from Brule.
