is bad thing‚ but in the movie "The Hustler" the unsuspecting scene’s drove the movie. I really enjoyed watching this movie and I was really surprised to enjoy a film this much that was made in 1961. Robert Rossen was the director of this movie‚ and I thought he did a wonderful job picking out the cast for this film. Every character was believable‚ and they all played excellent roles‚ but the role of "Fast" Eddie stuck out to me because of the strengths in the character. Paul Newman was the perfect

Ethical Dilemmas in Crash It’s the sense of touch. In any real city‚ you walk‚ you know? You brush past people‚ people bump into you. In L.A.‚ nobody touches you. We’re always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much‚ that we crash into each other‚ just so we can feel something. The film Crash follows multiple stories interweaving all surrounding an initial car crash. The film also attacks stereo types and teaches you life’s lesson of never judging a book by its cover

whole movie is Malcolm speaking aloud his essay for the application of the school. Throughout the whole movie Malcolm is faced with a lot of difficult situations that test his moral and I think it’s good for people to see people in situations like that to remind them to act smart and really think about the consequences.

I think this is an integral part of the movie‚ which helps the viewer to understand that while it’s easy to
