To Kill A Mockingbird: A Movie Review
498 Words - 2 Pages.... the neighbours and their peers. The
father, Atticus, is a lawyer, who has currently been given a large court
case in Maycomb; defending a black man. Most of the film centres around
the trial of Tom Robinson, the black man charged with rape. The message it
portrays is one of what parts of society were very racist, and quite strict.
I feel that the lines in the movie are mostly believable, for the most part.
It is obvious that some of the phrases that were used by the children are
slightly forced, and unnatural. The language and vocabulary that were
utilized throughout the film I found to be fitting the characters. With
the acting, I was not impressed, however. It seem ....

Freud's Oz: Freudian Views In The Wizard Of Oz
1709 Words - 7 Pages.... Americans, with growing up." With this in
mind, it seems a good way of evaluating The Wizard of Oz is by Dorothy's
process of growing up, her maturation. Also, since Dorothy's adventure to
Oz is clearly in the form of a dream, it seems a good way of analyzing
Dorothy's maturation is by looking at this dream compared with real ones,
and using modern dream analogy from the Freudian perspective.
The act that spurs the entire action of the movie, according to
Freudian Daniel Dervin ( Over The Rainbow 163 ), is Dorothy witnessing the
"primal scene". The "primal scene" refers to a child witnessing sexual
intercourse between mother and father; an moment that is both terrifyin ....

will help someone he cares for. For example, when he says "In one respect
I'll thy assistant be; for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your
households rancour to pure love."(Act 2, Scene 3), he is saying that the
only reason he will marry Romeo and Juliet is because he hopes that the
marriage will end the hostilities between the two houses. When he says
"Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he
and I shall watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to
Mantua." (Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything will be all right.
Unfortunately, for all his good intentions the play still ends in tragedy. ....

or someone out to help the common man, but later in the play he becomes more and
more ruthless as his power corrupts him. At about the time his degradation
reaches it's climax the chorus interrupts with a song about death, how man can
control the most powerful of elements, and tame the wildest beast, yet death
still comes. He also learns through them some important things about love,
especially that it is unconquerable.
Through the chorus Creon begins to see that he is wrong and God is
superior to himself, but it takes a lot to shake his belief that a perfect
society is run by an unrelenting rule. This play also told me a lot about
humans in general, that the ....

His purpose is strengthened by the arrival of the French ambassadors who bring a reply from the Dauphin to Henry's demand for "certain dukedoms (in France) in the right of his great predecessor," King Edward the third", an insolent message that he "cannot revel into dukedoms there." In place of these territories, he receives an insulting gift of tennis balls. The angry King retorts that he will turn the Dauphin's tennis balls to gun-stones.

They know they have done nothing, and are falsely accused. Yet, even with
the glum atmosphere created by the conversation, the reader detects a
glimmer of optimism, determination, and hope in Proctor's voice. The reader
feels that he will fight till the end. "It is hard to give a lie to dogs.",
he says.
Proctor continually wavers in his decision whether to confess to
this outright lie, or to spite the evil and be hung in martyrdom. Up to
this point in time, the court officials have no definitive proof that any
witchcraft has actually been practiced. Innocent people are being hung only
on account of the testimo ....
