Selena had to overcome to become successful in Latin America it still makes it seem as if Selena was an automatic sensation‚ particularly in Mexico‚ where it is known she had difficulty winning people over. This is evident through the one scene in the movie where Selena visits Mexico and whilst there speaks Spanglish to reporters without any repercussions as later on a newspaper calls her the “genuine artist of the people.” Yet‚ it is no secret that at the beginning of her career the language barrier

During class we saw the film “Walkout”‚ it was a film that made me cry not only once but twice. The film showed the stereotypes and the expectations of Chicanos. I found the film being quite interesting because I could relate to it in many ways.

The documentary 13th‚ was an eye opening experience. It was a film in which it displayed issues of violence‚ crime‚ and race.

Character Analysis The Crucible‚ written by Arthur Miller‚ is a delightful depiction of the witch trials; where all someone had to do was scream witch and you were hung. Sounds great doesn’t it? I‚ personally‚ didn’t enjoy the plot‚ because it disturbed me that someone could be so religious and blind to reality that they hang their neighbors‚ children‚ and innocent others. John Proctor was a main character in trying to stop the hangings‚ and bring sense to people. He changed immensely in the play

Aragorn son of Arathorn had caught my attention from his very first appearance in the trilogy. Aragorn son of Arathorn is the heir of Isildur. He is also known as Elessar
