Review Of Musical Singin In The Rain
Number of words: 582 - Number of pages: 3

.... plays it cool, pretending not to recognise Don and putting down the talents of movie actors. Although Kathy pretends to be a real stage actress, her abilities become obvious to Don when she leaps out of a cake at the after-show party. An even bigger upset occurs when studio owner R.F. Simpson (Millard Mitchell) shows a new talking picture, which is dismissed as a passing fad (commenting that Warner Brothers will "lose their shirts with The Jazz Singer"). Progress is inexorable though and the studio is forced to halt its next production, "The Dueling Cavalier", when it becomes obvious that i .....

Hamlet: Madman Or Misunderstood
Number of words: 816 - Number of pages: 3

.... where ‘a is eaten. A certain convocation of political worms a e'en at him." (Act IV, scene III, lines 20-21) Hamlet's behavior throughout the play, especially towards Ophelia, is inconsistent.

Sonnet 64
Number of words: 1185 - Number of pages: 5

.... "Time." Like one's "hand," time is capable of destroying the seemingly indestructible "lofty towers" and "brass". Man is an "eternal slave" to time. In these opening lines Shakespeare is revealing that our ambitions drive the building of higher "towers" and stronger "brass," however, even as we strive to create monuments of greater magnitude and fortitude, time will always be the victor and man's empires will be "down-razed." Shakespeare quickly humbles the reader with powerful destructive words, "buried"; "defaced"; "down-razed" and, consequently, one realizes that one day our present c .....
