The concept of the fourth wall‚ a key component of naturalistic theatre‚ film‚ and television‚ is a vital aspect of the contemporary actor-audience relationship with most pieces of art. Due to this being the norm for both Broadway and Hollywood‚ whenever someone decides to “break the fourth wall”‚ you can’t miss it. In my research‚ I am treating this technique as any time that a character acknowledges the existence of an audience to their plights or references the fact that they are part of an artistic

Chin-kee: A Symbol of Ignorance Stereotype: a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. The mythology of stereotypes have long been related with negative connotations towards individuals and their race.

He idolizes Stalin and the way he runs everything.

While watching and analyzing the sixth episode of the Breaking Bed‚ I disagree with Harvrilesky that Walter White is unlikable because I believe that TV shows even make the anti-hero to be likable.

The main character Walter White‚ a chemistry

Breaking Ice I walked on a thin layer of ice in high school; every time someone judged me‚ I could hear the ice slowly cracking under my feet. My life was in a fragile and brittle state during my junior year. I didn’t have the support of my parents‚ nor of my closest friends at this stage of my life.

On the contrary‚ I was determined to be successful because
