Lost In The Sun Romanticism
Josh Duhamel known for his ever romantic and swooning roles in NBC's Las Vegas, a protagonist in Transformers and New Year's Eve, will be seen leading a string of robberies in a new drama movie Lost in the Sun, set for release this week. This new change in profile, from a romantic lead, is a new change for Duhamel and one that he is excited about.

Duhamel will play John, a small time crook and ex-convict going around the state in a string of robberies with a newly orphaned teenager he kidnapped named Louis. The movie is directed and written by Trey Nelson.

This movie is quite different from his portfolio, since it's definitely not romantic. So in turn, he gets to shed his romantic bones.

The former Transformers star muses that this time

    The movie "Shawshank Redemption", written and directed by Frank Darabont is about Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) who in 1947 is sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison for the murders of his wife and her lover. However, only Andy knows that he didn't commit the crimes. Sent to Shawshank Prison to do hard time, Andy, a banker in the outside world has to learn to get by in the brutal, cutthroat confines of prison life as he is subjected to vicious attacks from the guards and his fellow in-mates. His quiet strength slowly earns the respect of his fellow inmates, most notably, Red (Morgan Freeman) and even much of the prison staff. His previous experience as a banker also earns him favor with the guards and the warden as he begins to launder money for them all. In return, Andy is permitted special privileges which include working in the warden's office and building a library for the rest of the prison. But Andy's seemingly stoic acceptance of his unjust imprisonment hides a fierce determination for freedom, especially after his innocence is proven seventeen years later. Eventually, after serving nineteen years of his sentence, the warden uncovers a series of events which leaves Shawshank sinking in scandal and Andy Dufresne nowhere to be found.…

    The themes of racial retribution and the romanticism of slavery can be seen during the Jim Crow Era (1877 – 1950s) and over the current debates over the removal of Confederate statues. Iniatally after the Turner’s rebellion, Virginia did take the inaitative to debate about abolishing the institution as a whole in their state but unfortunately the pro-slavery side won and that led to the inactment of slave codes and other laws (ex. making it illegal to teach slaves how to read) meant to further oppresses free blacks and slaves. Following the end of the Civil War (1861 – 1965) and Reconstruction (1863 – 1877), the south began passing racially motivated laws like segregating black or colored people to the worst parts of cities, making it difficult…

    The Romantics looked to nature as a liberating force, a source of sensual pleasure, moral instruction, religious insight, and artistic inspiration. Eloquent exponents of these ideals, they extolled the mystical powers of nature and argued for more sympathetic styles of garden design in books, manuscripts, and drawings now regarded as core documents of the Romantic Movement. Their cult of inner beauty and their view of the outside world dominated European thought during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.…

    As the Enlightenment had a firm hold in France during the last decades of the 18th century, so the Romantic view on science was a movement that flourished in Great Britain and especially Germany in the first half of the 19th century.[5] Both sought to increase individual and cultural self-understanding by recognizing the limits in human knowledge through the study of nature and the intellectual capacities of man. The Romantic movement, however, resulted as an increasing dislike by many intellectuals for the tenets promoted by the Enlightenment; it was felt by some that Enlightened thinkers' emphasis on rational thought through deductive reasoning and the mathematization of natural philosophy had created an approach to science that was too cold…

    Romanticism, commonly known as American romanticism, is writing in which feelings and intuition are valued over reason. It had a great influence over literature, music, and painting in the early eighteenth and well through the nineteenth centuries. It was commonly thought of as a trip into our imagination and could be written as stories, music, and paintings, but it was mainly found in poetry. In this essay, I will discuss the romantic qualities of “The Devil and Tom Walker” by Washington Irving, “Thanatopsis” by William Cullen Bryant, and “The Pit and the Pendulum” by Edgar Allen Poe.…

    Hamlet Argument

    The popular movie star, Denzel Washington, has multiple experiences in acting as both the protagonist and antagonist. On the other hand, Bruce Willis, another popular movie star, has no experience as the antagonist at all, therefore, the scene of Hamlet trying to disguise himself as a crazy person will not fit for Bruce. Denzel Washington is an open minded man because he does not mind acting as the antagonist character in movies; nevertheless, he has a great reputation in acting as both the hero and the villain. He manages to overcome movies that are out of his comfort zone. In example, Denzel Washington played in the movie, “Flight.” In this movie, he starts off as an alcoholic pilot who ends up saving the thousands of people. This reveals the significance of his act because he struggles to be a vigorous person at the beginning of the…
