They also receive what they risk for‚ well-paid. We have to allow people to make their own choice in life. The government should not ban something adults choose to do unless

It creates a sense of danger‚ suspense‚ and apprehension. The music in this scene works well with the dialogue‚ lighting‚ and continuity of editing. Goddykoontz and Jacobs (2011) describe music as being “a crucial part of the movie-going experience” (Sec. 6.4; papa. 18). In the “What If”- You’ve Got
