Reefer Madness All I can say about this movie is‚ wow. It seriously made me laugh because the way they portrayed “potheads.” I realize that the 1930’s were very different from now and even my teenage years‚ but that movie was utterly ridiculous. I honestly am not sure what those people were smoking‚ but I cannot believe it was marijuana. I realize that it does make people laugh but not hysterically like that. It also‚ does make some people want to be more sexual and even some paranoid. I will

Madness! Edgar Allen Poe once said‚ “Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.” There are many breathtaking horror stories‚ but none of them influenced literature as much as “The Tell-Tale Heart.” Poe uses the character and theme to make “The Tell-Tale Heart” one of his near perfect tales. His works often explored the inner workings of the human mind; in particular its dark side (Bouchard). This story shows the terrible war of superego upon the id‚ the

In The Crucible‚ Arthur Miller writes of his protagonist: “In [John] Proctor’s presence a fool felt his foolishness instantly- and a Proctor is always marked for calumny therefore” (144).
