First of all‚ I’m a big fan of the original two‚ maybe three Friday the 13th films. Four was alright. Then they started getting ridiculous. Anyway‚ last night Dan had rented me the new Friday the 13th and now I should be on a hunt for Michael Bay’s head with a hockey mask and a machete. This movie did not carry a subtitle‚ which‚ in movie terms‚ implies a remake‚ i.e.‚ the recent remake of Halloween by Rob Zombie. That was a okay film‚ by the way‚ by comparison. Rob Zombie gave the fans of the

getting the 13th amendment passed. While it shows some of the personal aspects of the president’s life‚ such as his relationships with his wife and two sons‚ it focuses on the political battle to secure enough votes to free the African American population. Unfortunately‚ many historians have pointed out that that aspect of the movie may very well be completely inaccurate. The majority of the film focused on Lincoln pushing members of the house to vote for the passage of the amendment through personal

instead of attending a diversity event for this paper‚ I watched a documentary on Netflix called 13th. This film discusses the issue of racism in the United States criminal justice system; specifically relating to how the 13th amendment transformed the view of African Americans from slaves to criminals. I thought the film was very thought-provoking and had strong concepts. Whoever named the movie 13th deserves a raise because that is the best title ever imagined. During the movie they follow the
