Movie Review: Black Hawk Down I selected the movie Black Hawk Down‚ because I really respect the soldiers who fight to keep all of us safe. Also‚ my mother told me that she had a personal connection with this movie because her mentor’s son was one of the Army Rangers that participated in this battle. On October 3‚ 1993‚ a group of U.S. Elite Forces consisting of more than 100 Delta Force soldiers and Army Rangers‚ who were part of a larger United Nations peacekeeping force‚ were dropped into

like what is to be an woman and what is to be an man. The Ugly Truth film (Luketic‚ 2009) offers us whole range of different myth and stereotypes.

Mike –very confident‚ doesn’t believe in relationship‚ very skeptic‚ and extremely arrogant‚ pretty straight forward. “Many aspects of masculinity myths are concerned

Semiotics lies in every design‚ because people‚ especially the ruling class always attempts to instill their ideology to people in working class by making people believe in myths. I have applied it to the music video "Kissing you" which featured in "Romeo and Juliet (1996)" film. This music video also worked as an advertisement for the film‚ at the time it was running especially to people who belonged in their target markets‚ like myself. I was in my teenage years when it was popular and as it

Concert Review: “ACDC-Black Ice” For me‚ this concert was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I have been listening to this band ever since I was little and watching their concerts on DVD with my dad who really loves rock ‘n’ roll music.

was “What it’s like to be a Black Girl (For those who don’t know)”. This is a poem written by Patricia Smith. The three elements of the poem that I found to be engaging were the tone‚ the content‚ and the language that the author uses. This poem struck some feelings in me. Therefore I am taking a descriptive approach to my response. As a black woman I felt somewhat belittled by the tone that this author uses in this poem. She speaks about the idea of being a black girl as being someone who is

Philosophical idealism in David Swan In the opening paragraph of David Swan‚ Nathaniel Hawthorne illustrates his philosophical musings by writing‚ " There are innumerable other events-if such they may be called-which come close upon us‚ yet pass away without actual results‚ or even betraying their near approach‚ by the reflection of any light or shadow across our minds."

This is my semiotics project. The character I used for this project was Charlie Chaplin I made two photoshopped images and one PAPERmache image.

My reason for this was so that my character was literally made of money‚ I even used the part of the dollar with his face on it for his eyes so it gave off the impression that he saw him self
