Nicole Lopez ENC1101 In the movie China Town Jake Gittes depicts some of the traits of your typical indifferent private investigator dealing with his clients’ marital issues including recording their adulterous acts. Jake was never fazed by anything and was a big advocate of provocative humor‚ even when he seemed to always find a dead end when he has a strong hunch about something.

Why is the movie Chinatown called Chinatown? The movie is called Chinatown for many reasons. The story leads up to a point where everything sort of resolves and it does it in Chinatown. To my understanding most of the Americans think of Chinatowns across the country as dangerous places. Because it is not to their understanding. And the average American citizen fears the unknown. I’m not entirely sure but the crime rate is probably higher in those areas. I mean i watched a lot of movies that takes

Based on all of the non-genetic evidence given‚ Pete Anderson is guilty. If the verdict was based off of the morphology of X. tortifolia and X. confertifolia‚ I would say that he was innocent since they are found at the archeological site and the Johnson mine; but that’s not the reality of this case. Although the three Southern plants from Utah looked similar from the outside with the white petals and yellow center‚ they have different preferences when it comes to soil and location. X. tortifolia
