another movie. Stories We Tell‚ made by Sarah Polley‚ is an example of reflexivity; her documentary explores her families’ life. Her story is in a way an adventure through telling her mother’s life and how she was conceived. I think Sarah makes the movie as a way to get to know her mom. Sarah’s mother is the center of this documentary. As the story progresses‚ it reveals to the viewers the drama that happened in her life‚ in chronological order‚ as it happened to Sarah. She tells her family and other

regard to this subject‚ I have chosen the ones which I find most compelling. If forming a fair opinion is what one seeks‚ it is absolutely imperative that every angle of each argument is carefully examined. Currently in place is the "don’t ask‚ don’t tell" policy that our legislature has implemented as a guideline for the military concerning who may or may not serve in our military.

the Reeds. Yeats has written a very in-depth poem that is easily related to life experiences‚ mainly because it is about being imperfect‚ something all of us can relate to. My poem fits into the category of love and is appropriately titled-The Lover Tells of the Rose in His Heart. ALL things uncomely and broken‚ all things worn out and old‚ The cry of a child by the roadway‚ the creak of a lumbering cart‚ The heavy steps of the ploughman‚ splashing the wintry mould‚ Are wronging your image

“The Tell-Tale Heart”‚ An Allegorical Reading In “The Tell-Tale Heart” by Edgar Allan Poe‚ the narrator is reciting his story and dreadfully tries to convince the unknown listener that he is not mad.

OWN VIEWS Go tell the Spartans Stranger passing by‚ That here obedient to their laws …….we lie. Thus reads an ancient stone at Thermopylae in northern Greece‚ the site of one of the world’s greatest battles for freedom. The book is told in a circuitous way; I found the jumping back and forth in time a bit distracting‚ but more off-putting was the way Xeones forecasts an event or subplot before narrating it in detail later. Already knowing how Thermopylae turned out‚ I was hoping for some suspense
