My father’s reply to my complaints was “It is your discomfort with the movie that is the reason you should watch it everyday.” That statement has been one that has stuck with me. That movie‚ like these

Scott did not accurately portray the biblical version of the Hebrew Exodus. Many things portrayed in the movie either didn’t happen in the bible or were very different than the Exodus. Some examples would be that Moses had a different personality in the movie‚ Moses didn’t perform the three miracles‚ God wasn’t a little boy‚ and several other things. These are a few of the problems that lead the movie away from the text. In the Exodus passage‚ Moses was a timid man and when God first asked him to go to

Ren in the older movie has an edge to him but it doesn’t give us more detail on why. In the newer movie‚ we see a scene where the viewer is told that Ren used to fix cars to make money. Ren‚ in both movies‚ is involved in gymnastics and is a good dancer. The Ren in the newer movie gives us more insight into how he feels about the law.

nicknames as the 1920’s has. The ‘20’s were a decade subject to lots of change‚ and therefore lots of social and cultural rebellion. Not only were Women’s Rights addressed‚ but the consumer industry and mass culture was born. Many new attitudes and morals were also adopted. However‚ while I believe this period to be the epitome of social and cultural rebellion‚ others may argue that any changes were only superficial. To begin with‚ Women’s Rights were finally addressed during the ‘20’s. Women also shed

"The Hustler" Most movies that come out today are practicable‚ I’m not saying that this is bad thing‚ but in the movie "The Hustler" the unsuspecting scene’s drove the movie.

Every character was believable‚ and they all played excellent roles‚ but the role of "Fast"
