Hamilton Extra Credit Assignment There is a vast array of things that I have learned through watching this film; from the writing‚ production‚ casting‚ and ultimately making it to Broadway let alone succeeding on Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda’s idea for creating Hamilton stems from an autobiography he read about Alexander Hamilton while on vacation. Flash forward to 2009‚ Miranda sings only one song that has been written for Hamilton when performing at the White House. Motivation and the creative

D.) THE PROGRESSION 1.) Parallel Points I.) Scarface - Tony’s rise to power is a notable rags-to-riches story‚ only that it involves drugs and dead bodies.

When it comes to reviewing films‚ the phrase ‘There’s nothing like this’ or ‘It’s completely unique’ is often overused and misused. In Boyhood’s situation‚ that same phrase is perfectly applicable – there really is nothing quite like Boyhood and it’s concept. Taking place from 2002 to the present day‚ the whole cast grow up – literally – before your very own eyes. While the theme of nostalgia is apparent‚ that’s not the film’s primary focus. Instead‚ the prominent theme is simply life as a boy growing

After watching the “Lottery”‚ I was extremely in awe of how people treat charter schools. I myself never had the opportunity to attend a charter school‚ but I do never thought people felt so strong about them. The PTA were against a school system that could help better educate their children. Looking at the way the parents reacted was heart breaking. I would think‚ that these parents would want their children to receive the best education that they can get‚ regardless of what the school is‚ but that

For the final project‚ I wanted to create a medium that reveals how unhealthy the the anti-aging industry is in our society and the negative impact it has on our self-esteem. I created a PSA poster similar to the “burn book” seen in the movie‚ Mean Girls. In the movie‚ the plastics create a book that bashes all of the people they hate in their high-school. They write hateful and false messages next to the girl’s picture. I found a similar connection to both the burn book and anti-aging advertisements

Analysis of The Movie of The Big Sleep The Big Sleep‚ written in 1939‚ is known as most famous hard-boiled novel by Raymond Chandler. In recent decades‚ unsurprisingly‚ this novel has been made into two movies. The first one which produced in 1946‚ by Howard Hawks‚ is the better one. Actually‚ there are still a lot of differences between the film and the novel. Even though I enjoyed The Big Sleep by Howard Hawks‚ I prefer the book‚ but I can see how someone hooked by the silver screen would
