    Fern Hill

    • 607 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The poem Fern Hill‚ by Dylan Thomas‚ is about person’s life from childhood to his eventual death. My reaction to the poem at first was confusion. But with repeated reading‚ more clarity was reached. In the work of a critic‚ named Thomas Steele‚ the interpretation derived from the poem resembled mine in most of the points. The two major points of Fern Hill that we both agreed upon is what the poem is actually about‚ and the passage of time. These two subjects are major themes in Fern Hill. The beginning

    Notting Hill

    REVIEW OF NOTTING HILL Notting Hill is one of the few romantic comedies I enjoyed watching. It’s quirky‚ light and full of wit. The movie itself will bring you into a world where happily ever after happens‚ a fairy tale for those die hard romantics. I know it’s unusual for something like this to happen in real life but it would make you wish you were one of the characters in the film. I really liked the conversations the characters have and the language they used. Like other rom-com films‚ this
