the world vow never again. But those are just words‚ words that are worthless. Everyone likes feeling safe.

By watching the film Hotel Rwanda‚ I have come to agree with Hobbes’s theory of people naturally being evil. Everybody truly only cares about themselves. While the Hutu’s were literally slaughtering the Tutsi’s by the masses‚ the world didn’t care. That to me is true

and his ex-girlfriend‚ too. Now he has to figure out how to make the relationship work‚ even though he’d be the first to admit she’s totally out of his league. She’s out of my League was a well-structured film in my opinion. This film was unified around a central theme. The theme of the film is that it is ridiculous to rate people based on looks and decide that you can’t be with someone based on some rating of 1 to 10. In the beginning of the movie‚ Kirk is having a confrontation with is ex-girlfriend

Daniel Ruiz English 104 31 July 2012 The White Messiah Many people assume that in order for a movie to be worth watching a movie a hero must come and save the helpless. In many cases the savior has to be white‚ young‚ handsome‚ likeable and masculine. Such an assumption can be dismissed in the movie Gran Torino. The movie depicts not only the very apparent differences between races‚ but in cultures as well. In Gran Torino‚ Walt Kowalski defies a person’s expectation of a white savior. He is

Grape‚ Gilbert’s brother‚ and Becky‚ the love interest‚ were played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Juliette Lewis respectively. I found the movie to have several good factors but overall was rather predictable and shallow in many parts. In my opinion this film was rather in between‚ not particularly good or completely bad. Gilbert Grape is the eldest remaining son in his rather dysfunctional family. He is the chief caretaker of his autistic brother Arnie while his sister Amy‚ played by Laura Harrington
