In this paper I will be comparing and contrasting the events that took place in the movie 300 to the real events that were recorded throughout history by many historians that have studied these events of the one of the strongest Hellenic city-states Sparta. The movie 300 was set in the spring of 480 BC when the Persian King Xerxes was trying to follow in his fathers footsteps who continuing his master plan to conquer the Hellenic city-states‚ arrives in Hellas.

Nick then exclaims he still hasn’t met the host and the man explains he is in fact Gatsby. However in the movie Gatsby being played by Leonardo DiCaprio it would give it away that he’s the man Nick has been waiting to meet so instead Gatsby over hears Nick say he hasn’t met the host and Gatsby turns around and says I’m Gatsby. One thing I did notice about DiCaprio

Rye” engages and builds on suspense of events attracting me to finish it. A novel with mighty suspense is fascinating‚ but it wouldn’t create an intriguing movie. Narration happened in an immensely descriptive style creating an imaginative visualization in the reader’s mind instead of it all being present in a form of a long movie. Copies are sold and will be sold in the future. Producing a film will take away all the elements such as figuring out symbols and connecting them to change and adulthood

I like the book more than the movie. Audience reaction has to be taken into consideration in a way that books don’t have to. The audience‚ cannot‚ even for a moment‚ be confused as to who the "bad guy" is. Otherwise‚ you can have a teenage Scarface. "Moral Convenience" is what’s pissing you off. The HBO adaptation of Game of Thrones also does this. Good characters never "cross the line" where as bad guys say homophobic comments and express jealousy. This is the reason why fantasy-themed works

In the end‚ the movie was finished out almost lazily. While the plot and acting definitely assisted the film in being successful and the best movie adaptation that exists as of now‚ it lacks things it needs. The tone of the storyline is something very easy to mess up when playing around with it‚ along with the filming mistakes. The movie was creative‚ and I will praise it for that to the best of my abilities‚ but if you’re looking

Set Design As a director I am going to depict Act 1‚ Scene 4 as a halloween horror/comedy type of movie. The setting is an old barn and its mischief night which changes the plot because seeing a ghost would be somewhat expected because of the day. It’s pretty stereotypical to have some kind of creepy abandoned building in a horror movie so a rundown barn would also express the decaying motif that’s expressed throughout the play. The characters in these movies are typically dressed similar (ie

Last year‚ we decided to watch Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief‚ and Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters. My siblings and I had read and loved the books‚ written by Rick Riordan‚ so we thought‚ “How bad could it be? It would be amazing to see these incredible stories onscreen!” We were wrong. Every member of my family who had read the books agreed that this movie destroyed the intent of the original

In the book and movie of To Kill a Mockingbird‚ the lesson of keeping one’s head held high is experienced differently. The lesson is openly stated in both the novel and the movie. Atticus says to Scout after a fight with Cecil Jacobs to‚ “just hold your head high and keep those fists down” (Lee 76). Scout had fought Cecil because she believed Atticus would want her to stand up for him. Yet‚ Atticus tells her the opposite and wishes she would let all the rude talk go rather than fighting those who
