This film is very personal to but not to one person. The story is about Thierry’s experiences before, during, and after filming street artists. It also makes it more personal because throughout the movie we are shown scenes of an interview of Thierry commenting on his life. At the same time this movie is personal to Bansky because this is all happening because of him. Not only would this story not have been told without him but he is the antagonist of the story, setting everything in motion once he comes across Thierry.
She does not want John to go to his father's house to check on him because she does not want to be left alone in the house when there is a snowstorm is taking place outside. Ann feels neglected and isolated "Seven years a farmer's wife - it's about time o was used to staying alone" (Ross 289). When John leaves feelings of isolation come over Ann and the feeling of isolation is mirrored in the story by the snowstorm that traps her in the house. Ann's feeling of isolation is also that she is completely alone in her house and the closest person is two hours away and she knows she can't leave her house because if she did she wouldn't make it. As the storm grows in strength so does Ann's sense of isolation 'The silence now seemed more intense than ever, seemed to have reached a pitch when it faintly moaned" (Ross 293).
Catfish is a documentary about the hard truth of Social Media. In 2007, Catfish was a documentary created and produced by Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost. The documentary is full of deception, twists, lies, and conspiracies. In the story Ariel follows his brother Nev’s eight and a half month journey of getting to know a family he knew nothing about, other than what he read on Facebook. Nev becomes intrigued with a talented young girl named Abby and her mother, Angela, and especially, Abby’s older sister, Meg.
Andy did not know who Miranda was or that she was the editor-n-chief of Runway. Andy was not familiar with the magazine and it was obvious she was not a reader of it. This is a clear sign that Andy did no research prior to her interview. Andy was dressed inappropriately for the interview in my opinion. Even if she was not dressed in high-end designer clothes, she still had a very unprofessional outfit to be interviewing in.
Sung Beom Kwon 01-30-2015 UGC 211 American Pluralism Response paper 1 Fahrenheit 9/11 Watching the film Fahrenheit 9/11 made me think of corruption of government that I haven’t thought about before. I personally don’t have any interest in political matters since it never actually affected me, my family, or my friends. But watching this film reminded me of discussion I heard from my host family about 9/11. It has been years since I’ve heard this conversation and had a very low fluency in English at the time but I could still remember clearly that 9/11 might have been a scenario set up by U.S.A. and it was all to take over the oil reserves in Middle East. At the time I did not believe the story or more likely I didn’t care what the U.S. government was doing but the film got me by shock with so much evidence it presented and how corrupt a government official could be for their own self-interest.
I believe that the first unethical situation that I noticed was Bob’s current therapist Dr. Carswell Fensterwald calling Dr. Leo Marvin to refer Bob to Dr. Marvin. Did he feel bad in knowing the type of patient he was giving to Dr. Martin? He never disclosed the entire reason behind giving Bob to him. I feel it was irresponsible of Dr. Marvin to take on such a complex patient the day before he left for a summer vacation with his family. I feel that he should have referred him to another therapist instead of thinking about himself.
However Tufekci argue in Thompson article, “‘[that one cannot] play with [one] identity if your audience is always checking up on [him/her]’” (Thompson 9). Tufekci is right to a point, but what if they haven’t always been an audience of one? I was in middle school and just moved to New London, New Hampshire. No one knew who I was. As I started to make aquatints they started to ask me if they could add me on Myspace.
The University claimed that the photo is inappropriate for a teacher teaching under-age students which would be considered as promoting drinking. In old days if a person wants to start a new life, because he wants to forget his past terrible life mistake, he just had to move to another city or country where he can start from zero. There, no one knows him and his mistake would be forgotten. But today, due to social network sites like Google, Face book and Twitter, your past mistakes and life cannot be forgotten wherever you go. The Right to be forgotten is one of the controversial issues in our digital age.
My sister started driving at 15 with no license, but I my parents made it very clear they didn’t trust me with the car like they trusted my sister. When I turned 15, I begged my parent’s to let me to go take my learner’s permit test with no such luck. Frustrated I did something I did not even know I was capable of doing. I took the car without permission, not to mention it was like my first time driving. I picked all my friends up trying to showing off.
The participant was not fully aware of studies being conducted as he forgot just moments later. He did not know he could withdraw from the study, as he could not remember things from moments before. The study was not confidential; it was a documentary about Clive Wearing and studies done on him. The experiment would be tedious for Wearing however having anterograde amnesia would not be able to understand the tediousness as each time he would be doing the study it would feel like the first time ever. So the participant was never harmed by this study.
