It was back in March of 2010. My senior year of high school was coming to a close. Everyone was in anticipation for Graduation and the school year to come to an end. My parents had been planning a trip to Florida for quite some time now and I couldn’t wait for them to leave. I decided to plan a party for Friday night even though my parents had specifically told me not to have a bunch of people over. I could hardly sleep Thursday night because I was so excited for what the following night might

exercise. Crash is one of the few English movies‚ out of the tons I’ve watched this year‚ that really touched an emotional chord. CRASH- ’’Moving at the speed of life‚ we are bound to collide with each other.’’…This is the tagline for the movie. This movie is set in Los Angeles and explores tense racial relations amongst the various communities that exist in LA. Crash is an ensemble piece in which the stories of different characters intersect and intertwine…kinda like Tom Cruise’s Magnolia. Each

Thesis Mel Gibson’s Braveheart is routinely named in polls of film critics as the worst movie ever to have won the Academy Award for best picture‚ and it is easy to see why. The acting in the film ranges from the blandly unmemorable to the mortifying. Negligible as Scottish history‚ but it is undeniably a political film. Gibson clearly did not intend to venture into a political debate—the film is structurally and visually standard Hollywood fare‚ a costume drama of the sort normally considered

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a little beast‚ a cobra’s worst nightmare‚ the king of mongooses. Which is why he has every right to be proud of himself.

Adversity Bringing Out The Best or Good? Recently a tragedy has occurred in New York and many other states being known as “Hurricane Sandy” leaving a mark on our lives. Sometimes in life when natural disasters occur or in general when unfortunate cases occur adversity can truly bring out the real person whether for good or bad. I personally believe adversity brings out the best because in most cases you see people helping by any means and actually some have sacrificed their lives just

Fargo Movie This movie is strikingly funny and at the same time‚ quite disturbing. The twist is very sharp and hooks people watching it. The character of Sheriff Marge is no doubt the most attractive point in the film. Her character is self-possessed‚ and generally content and easily pleased although she has seen the worst of human nature. She’s married to Norm‚ a normal guy who cooks breakfast‚ and fishes‚ and paints birds (his work becomes featured on the U.S. $.03 cent stamp). The characters

World’s Worst Dictators There are many different dictators in the world‚ who have all done horrific and immoral things. They all have their worst points‚ and different people rank the “Worlds Worst Dictators” differently. I believe that Hu Jintao‚ from China‚ is the number one worst dictator‚ King Abdullah from‚ Saudi Arabia‚ is second‚ and Sayyid Ali Khamernei‚ from Iran‚ is third. Sayyid Ali Khamernei has been the dictator of Iran since 1989. Since then he has oppressed the rights of women

The Movie Crash is about racial in social division. These factors are what prevents the characters communication effetely. For example‚ Terrance Howard and Thandie Newton where pull over because they where driving a high profile vehicle at night and because they where African American people. The fact that they are were from different backgrounds in had different lifestyles obtusely affected how they communicated. For example‚ Ludacris and Larenz Tate lived in a more poverty stricken neighborhood
