REACTION PAPER (Always- Sunset in Third District) It all started with a quite bit of confusion. I thought the film was about the history of Japan or whatever but then as we arrived in the cinema and start watching the movie I got curious why it was like a comedy and a little bit drama kind of movie. The movie was set back on 1958 at the time of the construction of the Tokyo Tower so the screen’s color was brownish (Classic) and the actors and actresses’ dress were classic too. There are two

Baler A Reaction Paper for Spanish We spent two hours inside classroom. I saw a lot‚ discovered new ideas‚ thought of filling my senses‚ felt all the lines in the movie. But when I was about to go out‚ there seems to be something lacking. It’s like something is not reaching my stomach. It was like dissolved in my throat too early. The movie is acceptable.

Marissa Parkman HSer-395 Tuskegee Syphilis Reaction Paper Dr. James Shelton I feel that the purpose of this article along with the visual aide of the movie we watched in class‚ the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment had been purposely obscured for over forty years‚ as the U.S. public health could not recognize that this study would horrifyingly portray this country as racist in itself. To hinder one group of the U.S. population‚ to use these innocent men as experiments was morbidly wrong and as

Tartuffe Reaction Paper Tartuffe shows just how a person can be deceived or plotted against. We all tend to adapt to friends or take people in without knowing the true characters of that person. It pays to analyze and get to know a person before giving all of your trust and belief in them. Most of the plays we have read always give life lessons.

Every year‚ almost every ballet company in the country puts on a performance of the Nutcracker written by Peter Tchaikovsky.

But‚ what cannot be seen in how all of those people have become stronger physically and mentally from the countless rehearsals that have shaped
