The title of this book is “Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie.” If the word “lie” from the title was meant to mean “lie down‚” the title would be a play on words because you usually lie down when you sleep.

The Great Gatsby My assignment was to compare the novel The Great Gatsby to the movies which were made in 1974 and 2000.While the basic idea of the book was expressed in both movies‚ I choose a version of 1974 because it seemed to have more noticeable details than the version which was realized in 2000.

It will probably go on to be a classic to the girls who saw it even if they grow up to be older women. "Never Been Kissed" could be described as a funny and big hearted motion picture
