He had constant run-ins with the law which made his leadership very controversial. But in truth, Tupac was just a regular human being like the rest of us. Bill Clinton cheating on his wife doesn’t take away from the fact that he was a great president. The Government criticized Tupac for his abrasive lyrics and degradation of women, but he was only being raw and uncut about what was going on in society. He didn’t degrade women either, he highly respected them.
Both people are usually cautious about what they tell each other and how they say it, and they make a conscious effort to present positive information about themselves and to avoid conflict”. The movie Crash was a great choice to look at for conflicts in interpersonal relationships there were many instances to choose from where the communication was not that good at all. It was a challenge to narrow it down to one scene because the movie was all about racism and prejudices between us all. One of the biggest break downs in interpersonal communication in the movie crash happened between an African American couple who had just been pulled over by two white police. During the search of the body of the woman it was apparent that the white policeman was being way over the line touching the female in places that were very unnecessary When the couple returned to their house a complete failure in communication happened.

The findings indicate that the most common type of hate crime was an attack committed for the thrill or excitement experienced by the offender. The youthful offenders often told police they were just bored and looking for some fun. In 91 percent of these thrill-motivated cases, the perpetrators reported having left their own neighborhood to search for a victim in a gay bar, a temple in another part of town, or a minority neighborhood. The target was chosen because the offender perceived that the victim was in some way significantly different from
For example, when Bradley Cooper’s character works out a deal with the Officers so that they wouldn’t have to stay in jail over the weekend. He volunteered the boys to be used as a demonstration for the use of taser guns on criminals. The physical abuse and the situation is hilarious, but may be geared more to the present times. The gags and situations in these films are depicted differently for the audiences, as there is clearly a visual difference in the times the movies take place and the delivery of the material. The Hangover chose to use physical abuse to their advantage, where as Coming to America left went for a more situational, verbal approach.
The twists in the film are predictable as you could tell that Vesper was going to betray Bond at least 10 minutes before it happened. The other twist being that Mathis was also a traitor, this twist was not quite as obvious as the other one but you could still tell. Parts of the plot are also predictable and are usually the same in all the films, the fact that Bond always gets the beautiful girl or two. However in Casino Royale he is clearly very upset when vesper dies but soon recovers. The same thing happened in “Her Majesty’s Secret Service” in which Sean Connery gets married, and afterwards his wife is killed.
Film Noir and Romance: It’s No Fairy Tale Baby Film Noir may not seem like a very romantic subject considering how many of the couples in the films are eventually lead into their death or a prison term. There are some romantic aspects to these type of cinema. Even if a couple does have a tragic end, there is always some sort of romance in the middle. It could be lust or love, but it is usually there. While all Film Noir never ends as fairy tale, an audience can look at most of the films and see how love, or lust, can drive people to do despicable acts of crime.
Where females were the offenders, the emotional and irrational nature of the crime were outlined whereas for males the violence was made to seem ‘normal.’ Words such as ‘unnatural’ ‘unfeminine’ and ‘sadistic’ are boldly written in newspaper headlines when describing crimes committed by females, their appearances and lifestyles, unlike their male counterparts, are also of major interest. Eric Hickey (Magma, 2002) speaks of female killers and describes them, "These are the quiet killers, every bit as lethal as their male counterparts, but we are seldom aware of them in our midst because of the low visibility of their killing." Tracie Andrews is a former glamour model that was jailed for life for stabbing her fiancé Lee Harvey with a penknife. Andrews appealed for witnesses to come forward as she insisted her partner had been the victim of a road rage incident. At the time of the murder the main focus of the newspapers were on Tracie’s physical appearance (Marsh and Melville, 2009) with headlines such as ‘former model Tracy Andrews’ and ‘blonde Tracy Andrews’ the Sun newspaper also had the headline ‘Death Quiz Tracy in Glamour Poses’ subsequent to her arrest for the murder.
Kristen Calvert Critical Paper 1 Surely the best way to resolve an argument with one’s spouse is to give them a good sock in the jaw, right? Romantic comedies usually do not include violence in the plot considering the genre is composed of humorous love stories however; screwball comedies, a subgenre of romantic comedy, often do have instances of violence. Whether this violence is significant or not is generally not discussed among critics because it is not the main message of these films, but the use of violence in Frank Capra’s It Happened One Night (1934) was examined in more depth by Linda Mizejewski, author of “Rules and Unruliness: Romantic Comedy”. Mizejewski interprets the use of violence in this particular film as a disturbing overtone, threatening to women. In my opinion, Capra’s employment of violence provides an element of realism and is a constituent of a masculine gender role.
Pickton sex drive is what initiated this story. Secondly, he did not have sexual encounter with one woman, but with many of them. This indicates the increase of sex drive and proves that Pickton actions were based on the drive theory since the theory states that drive tends to increase over a period of time. Another way of examining this case using drive theory is the drive Pickton had to kill them. Since most of the women’s were prostitutes and drug addicts and because of such personality, their status is tarnished among the society and this may have been Pickton attempt to eliminate them.
