    The 1975 movie Young Frankenstein directed by Mel Brooks is an old fashion comedy spoof compared to the other Frankenstein movies. Brook’s film reflects the sexual revolution during the 1970s. This affected the time period’s culture in a significant way; because women weren’t portrayed for enjoying sexual encounters. I believe this was Brooks way of emphasizing those types of scenes in his film. The movie was also hysterical‚ and every character in his or her own way contributed to the funny aspects

    People Like Us When first reading the piece by David Brooks I was shocked about the bold statement that he made. Growing up I always believed I surrounded myself with others that were not all the same as me‚ however the more I look into my actually life and each piece there is a fair amount of truth behind his “admission”.

    Brooks’ Universal Issues and the Appeal to a Broad Audience Brooks’ poetry‚ so rich in personal detail and authenticity‚ often does not have to justify the moral side of issues like other poems usually do. Her work‚ for me‚ seems less confessional and more like realistic humanity‚ a difficult feat to accomplish when so much of the material speaks of inner turmoil‚ lost loves‚ and wistful sadness. Honest in tone and filled with common and often disturbing themes‚ the poems were ones I was able to
