The Die Hard Trilogy: McClain An Example Of A Hero In America
Number of words: 614 - Number of pages: 3.... black man, in the
fifties this never would have happened. The fact that he picks a black man
incorporates some multicultural aspects into the movie. The fact that he picks
a partner shows some post modern aspects of Hollywood. Both of these facts help
sell movies and help define a hero in America today.
Another aspect that makes McClain a post modern hero in America is the
fact that he to has problems, James Bond was never like this, he always had a
woman by his side, or falling at his feet. People held this man in high esteem,
because he was perfect. However in real life blond bimbo .....

The Story Of Oedipus
Number of words: 451 - Number of pages: 2.... exactly guiltless, either. The great Queen had also
tried with King Laius to kill their son, and had no respect for the prophecies
of Apollo: "A prophet? Listen to me and learn some peace of mind: no skill in
the world, nothing human can penetrate the future." She was also the other half
of a mother-son marriage. Greek law considered the act, not the motive -
meaning that even though she nor Oedipus knew they were related, they committed
the crime.
Finally, Oedipus's guilt. In some ways, Oedipus was the most guilty of
them all. Consider his 'hubris'. He regarded himself as .....

Henry IV: Hotspur Vs. Harry
Number of words: 1087 - Number of pages: 4.... whereas Hal compared with Richard does not care for the welfare of the
country and spends his time entertaining himself with poor company.
Hotspur has nothing but disrespect for Hal. During the play he calls him:
'the madcap Prince of Wales'.
He thinks of Hal as an unworthy opponent. From Hotspur's point of view the only
real opponent is King Henry, and yet it is Hal, 'the madcap of Wales', who
vanquishes him in the end, much to his surprise and dismay. We are neither
surprised nor dismayed by Hal's triumph because we know Hal better than Hotspur
does, and we know what is going to ha .....

Henry IV: Redemption
Number of words: 2050 - Number of pages: 8.... he redeem himself not only for himself, but also for his
father and his people because life will not always be a holiday , for "If all
the year were playing holidays, To sport would be as tedious as work" (1.2. 211-
212). However Hal needs some type of strength to make his realization come true.
Luckily Hal's father, the King is willing to lend several comments that enrage
him and provide him with the necssary motivation. It also seems that
Shakespeare has included the foil for Hal, the valiant Hotspur, in order to
provide the callow Prince of Wales with another source of motivation, .....

Number of words: 483 - Number of pages: 2.... also onto his sons, causing them the same confusion over identity.
Willy Loman is a perfect example of someone who feels betrayed because he can't achieve the financial goal that society has conditioned him to strive for. He worships the goddess of success, but he doesn't have the talent or the temperament to be a salesman, his chosen career. When he fails as a salesman, no other measure of success, the love of his family, his talent as a carpenter, can comfort him. He believes that a person who fails in business has no right to live. Willy feels empty; the fulfillment he feels he needs is .....

Movie: Disaster At Hillsborough
Number of words: 550 - Number of pages: 2.... let off the
pressure in front. This is when the true disaster occurred. People funneled
straight onto the already full pens and created the stampede which killed the 95
people. People in the rear were in an acquisitive panic and the people in the
front who were getting crushed were in a fearful panic. The emergency gates
would open but the police, not realizing the situation, kept people in and
closed the gates.
Critique
This example could not be anymore perfect to show a stampede and panic.
All four components were met. (1) Partial entrapment; the reality is complete
entrapment. As .....

Cause Of Hamlet's Distractions: Feelings And Passions
Number of words: 998 - Number of pages: 4.... my sum. (V,i, 264-266)
Hamlet is too immature to love her enough to trust her in their
relationship. This trust that he is lacking will give him the ability to
hand Ophelia the key to his madness however, due to immaturity he is unable
to hand her the key. Because of Hamlet's immaturity this same madness
enables him to act extremely irrational at times, such as killing Polonius.
Most mature people will take the time to find out what is behind an arras
before stabbing at it in a blind rage. His madness is understood however,
as a mature adult, he should be able to control himself and b .....

King Henry IV And Joseph Strorm: Archtypical Fathers
Number of words: 377 - Number of pages: 2.... lived more like himself. Joseph Strorm is a
father with very strict rules. He cares more about the physical make up of a
person than he does about the actual personality of the person. In the story a
very cold side of Joseph Strorm is shown; he never gets close to his son at all.
The only conversation shared between Joseph and his children are harsh and is
often punishment. The way Joseph responded when David jokingly wished for a
third arm showed that he cared more about his image and purity than he did for
his own child. Both King Henry and Joseph Strorm lacked the ability to look eye
to .....

Essay On The Movie "Lord Of The Flies"
Number of words: 385 - Number of pages: 2.... their was a lot of special effect in the film the movie should
have been coloured. The special effects would have looked neater since a lot of
killing was shot. If the movie was coloured the audience would focus on the
screen often, rather than seeing a black and white screen.
The settings and the props were not prepared well. My first example is that the
boys shirts, were clean everyday. Their clothes should be black and grey,
because of the dirt and all the smoke from the fire. For example Simons' shirt
was a clean as white, when Simon was watching the other boys spill blood out of .....
