Analytical Critique of The Godfather I believe the reason that‚ "The Godfather"‚ is such a great film is because it lets audiences decide whether they like the characters or not.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee I saw The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee at Second Space Theater. It was produced by The Good Company Players. What I thought of the actual script was it was very funny and they changed parts to make it modern. I thought the actors were chosen wisely for the production because I felt the actors were really into their character. Like the actor who played Rona Lisa Perretti was truly into the play so she was truly into character. All the actors were
