... a fight at the end, and Jerry beat Archie up. And
in the book there was no two person fight. At the end of the movie Obie
becomes head of the Vigils and Archie is reduced in rank. Archie get the
marble in the movie but not in the book. There is no music in the book,
but there is in the movie.
I liked the movie better than the book. It was better because
Jerry got even with Archie for once. And that in my opinion, is a better
way to end a movie like the Chocolate War. I just feel that movies are
more helpful. And in this case I just feel that it was much better. The
book just lacked many unexplainable qualities, that the movie had. ...
... his difficulty
of fitting and acquiring new friends that he can socialize with. Thus he became
a shy boy that pretty much kept to himself. Jeremy's characteristic that
distinguished him from the rest of society in which he lived in. Although he was
persecuted, beaten, and ridiculed at. He understood his characteristics and
understood why the boys hated him It was fear!
3. I respect Jeremy's caring. Like Christ himself, he wouldn't fight or use any
sort of violence to resolve problems. Jeremy would speak his words of wisdom, or
use his divine powers of mental stability and force to express a point. He would,
without hurting anyone, prove a point. This charac ...
... integrity intact. He is a special man, who is steadfast in upholding his
principles, even when death breathes down his neck. Sir Thomas More truly is a
paragon.
One character in the play particularly concerned with his goals, regardless of
the path he must take to reach them is Thomas Cromwell. Cromwell is the
personification of pragmatism and is willing to do anything, providing the end
sees him satisfied. "�our job as administrators is to make it as convenient as
we can," Cromwell states in reference to the King's divorce and the pursuit of
More's support. He is "�the King's ear," and is thus responsible for all the
menial tasks which the King would otherwis ...
... that Ophelia�s father, Polonius was involved. In his outrage he ended the romance by saying:
I have heard of your paintings, well enough. God hath
given you one face, and you make yourselves another.
You jig and amble and you [lisp,] you nickname God�s
creatures and make your wantonness [your] ignorance.
I say we will have no more marriage. (3.1.142-149)
Knowing that Polonius was an accomplice in such a vicious act Hamlet did not want to betray his father by marrying into a sinful family. In agreement to this idea Hamlet also said, �Get thee to a nunn�ry, why wouldst thou be a breeder of sinners?� for if Ophelia were to be a nun she would not be gi ...
... lie. To one person, a smiling monkey can instill a primal feeling of
fear, while to another the first reaction is one of amusement. This difference
in reaction is based upon religious upbringing, and nothing more. To certain
culture, a smiling monkey is the scariest thing they could ever imagine, and to
another, it means laughter. A close minded person viewing an ancient religious
mask would see nothing more than nonsense, while one who wishes to understand
art would see the beauty of that culture and it's beliefs, and would try to
place themselves in a way so that they may understand the original meaning ofthe
mask, and form an educated opinion ...
... such oppositional readings as well as such familiar oppositions as masculine and feminine, positive and negative images of women, reinscription and subversion of patriarchal ideologies. The tension between the film�s uses of narrative and image works to interrogate and problematize both feminist and antifeminist assumptions about gender, power, and subjectivity.
In Alice Doesn�t Teresa de Lauretis claims that
Feminist film theory has gone well beyond the simple opposition of positive and negative images, and has indeed displaced the very terms of that opposition to a sustained critical attention to the hidden work of the apparatus. It has shown, for instance, h ...
... 58-59) plant early in the play a conception of time as something which fulfills itself by growing---and which, the season being wrong, can swell to monstrous shape. " . . . the troubles of Macbeth's character are planted early in the play, and they foreshadow his downfall," (Brooks). In the early scenes of the play evil is scarcely visible in Macbeth, but it spreads through his soul at an alarming speed. Macbeth takes his first giant step towards complete corruption when he murders his gracious king, Duncan. Duncan thinks highly of Macbeth and praises him often, such as when he states, "I have begun to plant thee, and will labor/ To make thee full of growing. ...
... contributes to the themes authority and power in King
Lear. These symbols are represented by material things. For example, in
[Act 1 scene 1] when Lear is dividing up his land, power and authority to
his three daughters, depending on how much they can verbally express their
love for him. [Lines 52-53] "Which of you shall say doth love us most?
That we our largest bounty may extend where nature doth with merit
challenge." The land that each daughter received is the extent of their
authority and of their power in the Kingdom. For example, the Duke of
Burgundy did not wish to marry Cordelia after he found out she was getting
nothing from her father. He was m ...
... brought him out
of the shadows, where his controlled madness might have fooled the likes
of Jonan for a while, but the latter's paranoia finally caught on and
killed Sowho and itself; putting a rest the destruction and curse laid
upon the poor factory workers and opening a broad new scale of
possibilities that might (in long terms) help tip the edge of demeaning
business ethics in the Nigerian society.
Anyone who read Macbeth would agree that it's quite parallel to
Flowers & Shadows. Even thought the books where written by two different
authors at different time periods; the depicted morals of the stories
show the fundamental and universal relation of ...
... has a desire to destroy, deep-rooted in
violence. Despot rulers are also never satisfied with the power they have at
any given time, thus exposing their constant fear of retaliation from their
subjects. This examination of the despot ruler by Plato clearly shows the
motives by which despot rulers rule, but it fails to explain why and how these
motives originate in the human mind.
In order to comprehend why such a high level of fear and insecurity can
be brought about, a look at the upbringing and personal life of Richard should
be brought into discussion. One of three brothers, Richard was in constant
competition of who would succeed in gaining the throne of ...
