    The Tall Man Documentary Analysis

    Director Tony Krawitz’s take on the suspicious death in custody of Cameron Doomadgee is well presented in the documentary The Tall Man. Based on the book by Chloe Hooper, the documentary explains the mysterious death of Cameron Doomadgee on the 19th of November 2004 on the peaceful Palm Island. The island being the definition of community, it seems odd for Doomadgee to be found dead in a jail cell less than an hour after his arrest, especially by Senior Sargent Christopher Hurley who was a friendly officer to…

    Kyle Evans's Emotions

    Emotions Kyle Evans hadn't experienced in an eternity consumed him as he explained himself to Zai, and expressed to the murderess, coated with another mans blood, beside him, words and feelings that he'd never even spoken of to anyone else. What he revealed to Zai, the man himself was also hearing for the first time, and yet there was embarrassment at the admission that he'd become sexually aroused by the act of torturing a woman. He and Zai were of the same ilk, however she also offered the Army Veteran something that he'd forever be unable to obtain alone. Companionship, and another agonised soul to whom he could reveal his darkest and most depraved desires, no matter how wrong others would believe them to be. The secrets he'd kept hidden…

    Shutter Island Theory

    Scorsese sets the film up for success by choosing great sorce material. Shutter Island is based off the novel of the same name written by Dennis Lehane and provided a great canvas for Scorsese and DiCaprio to paint on. Shutter Island tells the story of U.S. Marshall “Teddy” Daniels as he investigates the disappearance of a patient of Boston’s Shutter Island Ashecliffe Hospital for the criminally insane. The island is a hellish place 11 miles from shore where dangerous maniacs are subjected to unique treatments by the questionable and very creepy, Dr. Cawley. The patient, Rachel Solando, has been institutionalized in the hospital for drowning her three children in the lake behind their house.

    Aileen Wuronos

    Throughout this entire class and its contents, I’ve learned a lot about different people, and the abnormal part of psychology, I’ve learned about dozens of disorders and mental disturbances, and I’ve watched countless films and read bunches of stories, but nothing I’ve done has meant as much to me as this paper and its subject, Aileen Carol Wuornos. It must have been some sort of force that brought me to her. I learned about her one night watching Nick Broomfield’s Documentaries, “Life and Death of a Serial Killer: The Aileen Wuornos Story,” and its sequel, “Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer.” From that moment, Aileen and her story have been a constant element in my life. I don’t remember how I even found the documentary; all I remember is being fascinated with this woman and the story she left behind her. Since then I’ve been entrapped in her life and story and the woman behind the story. Aileen is with me every day, I have her book in my bag every day and I continue to read it over and over and over, praying I didn’t miss a single detail about her. I watch her documentaries and movies over and over hoping to find something I missed that will explain her and help me understand my fascination with her. Hundreds of people have written about her and have been fascinated by this woman, but they don’t see her the way I do. Movies have been made about her life, but they take the humanity out of her, making her out to be nothing more than a shell of a human being. They see her as a monster, a cruel villainous woman who preys on men for sex and money, and then kills them. They see a worthless prostitute who killed men; they see her as a man hating, lesbian. That’s not who Aileen Wuornos was. Aileen Carol Wuornos was a tortured soul, plagued with neglect and abuse from the moment she was born, a woman who never had a chance to live the life she so…

    Ingineous Pain

    The novel is most fascinating in its characterization of Dyer as the stereotypical surgeon, a study in clinical detachment taken to its logical and self-destructive conclusion--he is a superbly efficient but unfeeling machine, performing amputations, caesarean sections, and even brain surgery, in record time, with little or no care for the patient--and in his learning to be a normal man, one capable of empathy and thus of suffering. The consequences of Dyer's emotional and physical numbness and the excruciating torments and pleasures he experiences when he finally begins to feel are presented in fascinating detail.…
