Tao Qian’s‚ “Substance‚ Shadow‚ and Spirit” I observe that‚ Qian and I share many things in common‚ but have some major differences as well.

After reading many novels throughout my life I would place‚ The Shadow Lines‚ by Amitav Ghosh‚ in my top 10 list. The novel is based on the narrator who was English educated but Indian born.

Alfred Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt is no less than a perfect example of film noir. Low-key lighting‚ dramatic shadow patterning‚ and camera angles are all expertly used to foreshadow and portray the emotions and psyche of the characters. Hitchcock uses sets and props to mirror scenes‚ creates characters that are remarkably similar but simultaneously conflicting‚ and emphasizes emotions that offer contradictions. The sense of duality and contradiction in the film demonstrates how darkness can take

After he saw them at the bar and they spit in his face‚ I think he got the feeling
