Consider three different ways that comedy is created in the first scenes of ‘Educating Rita’. In scene two of Educating Rita, a bemused Frank opens the door of his office to find completely content Rita applying oil to the door handle and replies to his questioning look with ‘I was just oilin’ it for y’ .This is amusing and significant for the audience because it shows her struggle between everyday life and a life of education and knowledge. The door representing the barrier to which her culture and own society posses and the oil representing her, trying to find a way to break down that barrier. The amusement comes from the fact it’s very out of place to find a student bending down to fix the handle of a door in a university. This is important to the structure of the play as its presented early on in the second scene suggesting that there is room for her grow and adapt to the life of a educated woman.
It is usually done for the purpose of entertainment. Throughout the whole play, Shakespeare creates comic effects to amuse his audience. In this essay, I will discuss the use of pun, comic characters, sub-plot, misunderstood conversations and dramatic irony. Many characters in Twelfth Night love playing with words. Wordplay can create comic effect and give a sense of chaos.
There is also just the one set, Frank’s book lined study. Once again, I will explore this in more detail later on. Firstly I would like to express my thoughts on Rita’s entrances to the study. Russell has been wise by making the entrances to the study occur at the beginning of every scene. Scene One begins with Frank on the telephone to his partner, Julia, he finishes talking to her after Rita has knocked on the door and tried to get in.

It is my opinion the writer used this element well, as it grabbed my attention and made it a fun and interesting reading. It also built that small mystery regarding if she was speaking the truth or not, as midpoint thru the reading it made me question her gender preference which I found humorous. In Brady, J. (1971) “I Want a Wife,” she used the final statement “My God, who wouldn’t want a wife?” in order to draw a conclusion to the reader that she was making a statement based on experiences. The way I Plan on using the literary elements in my essay would be by using Tone and Language expression that will help the reader paint a mental picture of a current situation within my essay.
This is the main theme of the movie that is the story line that leads up to the action. “The New York Times” states,” enrolled in a high school where social status is determined by the ability to render peers unconscious with your bare hands, Jake finally discovers the therapeutic benefits of breaking faces” (Times). Also, Roeper states in a review,” It’s mindless action, with no excuses.” In these two reviews they are stating that these are great action films by definition. They have nonstop action sequences that will blow your mind. Then the thought of being at a high school that to be cool a kid literally has to beat kids to a bloody pulp with their bare hands.

The Influence of Grandparents In the stories “Inspired Eccentricities” and “Spirit,” both by Bell Hooks, the main characters really take after their grandparent(s) and learn a lot from them despite what their parents might think. In “Inspired Eccentricities,” the daughter really looks up to Baba and Daddy Gus even though her mother tells her to ignore most everything that they say because she doesn’t want her daughter to end up like them. In “Spirit,” the daughter gets all of the spirit that she has from her grandmother, and since the dad does not like his kids having any spirit, he tries to break her of her spirit whenever she or any of her siblings does something wrong. “Inspired Eccentricities” is about a child who really looks up to her grandparents. She explains everything about her grandparents to us and how odd they are compared to normal people, but how much she loves them for that.
Mothers get upset with this because they know that a child needs a father in their life. Wives get lonely. Not only must the father be there for the child but the father must be there for the wife. Wives get sad when they do not get to see their husbands. Most workaholics are in marriages that have been going on for many years, and this lack of attention has been hurting their wife for majority of the relationship.
Maggie was very uneasy around her sister; her mother tells her anxiousness in regard to Dee’s visitation: “Maggie will be nervous until after her sister goes: she will stand hopelessly in corners, homely and ashamed of the burn scars down her arms and legs, eyeing her sister with a mixture of envy and awe” (119). Dee undermines her sister, not always knowing what type of impact she impresses upon Maggie. Dee does not appreciate her sister or her mother, both of which is barely educated and lives in a poor, dilapidated home. In fact, Dee had her own way of making this noticeable in one instance when she stood off in the distance while their first home burned down with her mother and sister inside (121). She does not feel comfortable taking on the old fashioned lifestyle her mother and sister do.
