And so through montage I spliced into the acted scenes of slaughter pieces of real blood and death. Nesbet, A. (2007), Sergei Eisenstein and the shaoe of thinking, I.B Tauris, New York. “Montage “ was supposed to be able to bring together the disparate element of Strike’s finale: the concrete dhock of the slaughterhouse; the message and the acted scenes of worker’s rout. Eisenstein has become so thoroughly identified with montage in standard histories of film that it is unsettling to discover that his first attempt at film-making was found wanting precisely in that area, (Nesbet,2007) Lev Kuleshov claimed that Eisenstein was someone who knew how to work with single frames but did not yet have proper control over editing techniques.
I’m lonely in a dark concealed room, covered in someone or something’s blood splatter. All I can smell is dust and death, I witnessed, I saw, I know.

Biblical Allusions Biblical allusions are famous in John Steinbeck's, The Grapes of Wrath. The biblical imagery that is demonstrated throughout the novel significantly enhances the meaning of the story all the way through the development of the characters and the plot. These also highlight the fact that certain ideas in the Bible are still valid in our every day lives.

Through his novel ‘Chronicle of a Death Foretold’, the author, Gabriel García Márquez, traced along the mysteries behind the brutal murder of Santiago Nasar and by incorporating a great portion of ambiguity, built up his emphasis of the complexity of humanity. Márquez had created numerous moments in the novel for which there was more than one possible interpretation, ranging from why the mayor had such a casual attitude toward the brothers’ plan to why the Vicario brothers kept on revealing their intentions to everyone. Having two probable interpretations indicates the existence of subtle motives behind the characters’ behaviors and thoughts. Among these ambiguous moments, the one in which the mayor simply took the knives away from the brothers without arresting them and the scene of Santiago exclaiming at the very end did an especially significant job on highlighting the theme of the entire murder mystery. The depiction of the characters of the mayor and townspeople exhibits a most chaotic town full of disorder and its main cause - the residents’ selfishness and indifference for each other.

The Bible is overwhelmingly concerned with the second stage, namely the time between present creation and its end with the dawning of the new heavens and new earth (Rev 21:1).
