Outsiders is both a great book and a great movie. Although they are both very great‚ they are not completely the same‚ or completely different. A book that turns into a movie usually has way more information because the person writing the book isn’t just going to make it a movie line for line.

I’m not entirely sure but the crime rate is probably higher in those areas. I mean i watched a lot of movies that takes

Maci Evans The movie Tree of lIfe was at first really confusing and needed more than one viewing to understand. At first I tried to decipher some kind of plot in the story‚ I soon realized that my efforts were in vain when I noticed that perhaps the director of the film intended on the film to be ambiguous. After much thought I concluded that this film was perhaps the story of creation explained‚ questioned and explored through the tragedy of a family. I felt as though there was a lot of imagery
