From the lighting/colors changing to different camera angles‚ this movie recreated a new vibe to the scenes.

    personality of something before they can judge it on anything. Two books that can relate to this would one be‚ ”Macbeth” written by Shakespeare. The other one could be in the story‚ “Cross Fire” by James Patterson. In all I strongly agree with what Antoine de Saint-Exumpery once talked about and that you should follow your heart and never judge a book by its cover. The background and theme of “Macbeth” completely and entirely goes along with what Antoine de Saint-Exumpery said. This story is about how a

    • 3 Pages

    Many people believe that there is a terrible curse that has been put upon Shakespeare’s Macbeth. But the question is; are they right? We believe that it is all a matter of whether or not one is superstitious. For the opening scene of Act IV‚ Shakespeare reproduced a sacred black-magic ritual in which a group of witches danced about a black cauldron‚ shouting out strange phrases and ingredients to be thrown into it. The practitioners of rituals such as this one were not very amused by Shakespeare’s

This passage insists that there is no meaning or purpose
