The Preponderant Lysistrata
1195 Words - 5 Pages

.... the women’s intelligence and superiority is for Lysistrata, who is acting as the leader behind the entire operation, to find a common ground between all men to unite them in peace to end the war. All of the Spartan and Athenian men do have one strong tie in common that is highly important to them in this time period. This commonality is their sexual relationship with their wives. Lysistrata knows how important sex is to the men of all city-states. Without the women, the men “walk around the city bent over like men lighting matches in a wind” (726, 1028-9). Lysistrata uses her knowledge to gain power over them by summoning all of the women together and calling for “a s ....


Julius Caesar: Jealousy
483 Words - 2 Pages

.... Caesar doesn't like him. Caesar suggests, "Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look; / He thinks too much: such men are dangerous" (Act I, sc. II, 194-195). Cassius thinks that Caesar's temper is dangerous. He declares, "Ye gods! It doth amaze me, / A man of such a feeble temper should / So get the start of the majestic world, / And bear the palm alone" (Act I, sc. II, 128-131). Casca also is jealous of Caesar. He is disgusted by Caesar's manipulation of the commoners. He describes it as "mere foolery" (Act I, sc. II, 235). Casca agrees with Cassius that Brutus is an essential part the conspiracy. He says, "O, he sits high in all the people's hearts; / And tha ....


Kundun: An Analysis
1057 Words - 4 Pages

.... accounts of the same event. The film, full of Western philosophy, portrays only one side of the story. In viewing the film it is apparent that it is sympathetic towards the plight of the Tibetans. In the beginning of the film one of the monks recites, "May I be the doctor and the medicine, and may I be the nurse for all sick beings in the world until everyone is healed…may I be a bridge, a boat, a ship for all those who wish to cross the water." Later in the film, the Dalai Lama says, "Wisdom and compassion will set us free." As shown through the quotations, Kundun portrays the image of the Tibetan people as religious, peaceful, loving, and compassionate. How ....


The Rules Of The Game: Andre’s Arrival At La Coliniere
1375 Words - 5 Pages

.... hunch over to get inside, which is symbolic of the unpredictable effects of nature on the behavior of formal society. These tendencies of nature surface throughout the film as we see that the society’s attempts to establish rules for love prove unsuccessful. Because the rainstorm coincides with Andre’s arrival, there is a good possibility that Renoir is foreshadowing Andre’s death. The scene begins as Christine and Madame La Bruyere enter the foyer, talking about children’s sore throats. The two halt as they see the arriving aviator, and Christine’s clenched hands and rigid, immobile posture make notable expression of the tension she feels regarding their forthco ....


Black Ellk Spears
1485 Words - 6 Pages

.... to actors who could depict the characters, not simply to people who were Indians. It would not be a play without actors portraying other people. I do not believe that there was a positive or negative effect on the performance due to casting. The actors learned to look and to act like Indians which is what characterization is all about. Another reason to cast Eurocentric actors is there are many characters in the play. It would be very difficult to cast Indians in every role. Martinez even double and triple cast to accommodate for the many roles. This is a common occurrence in theater productions. I was not very impressed with the performances as different characters. ....


Hamlet: Antiheroism In Hamlet
834 Words - 4 Pages

.... Hamlet, the protagonist, Hamlet, is depicted as an antihero. One main factor which gives Hamlet such a label is that he draws sympathy, as well as admiration, from the reader since Hamlet feels the pain of losing his father along with the burden and obstacles in avenging his murder. Act four places a special emphasis on Hamlet's intelligence. In scene two, Hamlet is very insolent and rude towards Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with such phrases as, That I can keep your counsel and not, mine own. Beside, to be demanded of a sponge, what replication should be made by the son of a king? (IV, ii, 12-14) The reference to the sponge reflects the fact that ....


Last Of The Mohicans: Contrast And Comparison Of The Book And Movie
434 Words - 2 Pages

.... Alice over this matter, he pulls out the 26th edition of The Bay Psalm Book, and begins to sing "in full sweet melodious tones". Gamut is a tall ungainly singing master described as ridiculously dressed and carrying a pitch pipe while riding a horse, and pulling along a pony. At a muttered comment from Magua, Major Duncan orders Gamut to be quiet for safety. This scene was not only not in the movie, but neither was the character of Gamut. The movie not only left out a character, it left out other scenes. One such scene would be when Uncas Chickengook and Hawkeye join Cora, Alice, Duncan, Maugua, and Gamut.* When these characters join the party, they tell Duncan t ....


The Vietnam War And Hollywood Movies
562 Words - 3 Pages

.... Americans are kind to the Vietnamese but the Vietcong are mean and heartless. They don’t care who they kill, while the Americans are the "good" guys and care for other people. After ten years, The Deer Hunter was produced in 1978. Once again the same theme, Vietcong are cold-hearted and lower people than the Americans. In a violent game of Russian Roulette with the prisons of war (Americans), the Vietnamese mentally torture the "good" guys. The satanic enemy is presented in the most evil way. Then when the Americans shoot them there is a rush of happiness that the opponent has been eliminated, "die you commi bustards." However, just a year later a whole view of Vietnam ch ....
