Sylvia, in her frustration with Gellburg, says ‘Don’t sleep with me again’ in a rather commanding manner. The use of the negative imperative don’t’ gives the audience the sense that Sylvia is finally taking authority - not just over Gellburg, but over herself and over her life. Gellburg, in response to Sylvia’s belittling, cold-heartedness, exclaims: ‘Sylvia, you will kill me if we can’t be together’. Miller introduces elements of foreshadowing and tragic irony, as in scene nine; Gellburg does indeed have a heart attack and becomes severely ill. Gellburg also becomes increasingly emotional in return to Sylvia’s heartless, insensitive statements as is shown in the stage directions when he is ‘beginning to weep’. The portrayal of Gellburg in this scene is a complete contrast to the Gellburg exposed in scene two when he with ‘immense difficulty’ utters ‘I love you’ to Sylvia.
The most dramatic entrance of the play is at the end of Act Two when ‘Eric enters. Looking extremely pale and distressed’ This moment increases the tension massively because the whole build-up of tension in this scene leads to this moment and then the curtain falling after Eric enters increases it because as the reader we want to know what happened straight away but viewing this as a play there would be a break allowing the audience to think about what they’ve just seen making them really interested in knowing the answer. * Priestly also uses questions and confessions to increase tension in this scene. He uses questions and confessions together to build up tension because The Inspector uses questions that he already knows the answers to, to get the other characters to reveal shocking information which ultimately leads up to each characters confession of their partake in Eva Smith’s suicide which causes each of the characters to judge one another. This creates tension because each character has a confession to make and at this particular moment in the play we have Mrs Birling’s confession who
The production of the Mineola twins by Paula Vogel was extremely confusing I also believe that the director did a poor job of presenting this performance for several reasons like acting stage Setting and makeup/costumes and acting which I felt kept the audience lost and confused in my opinion the show itself just seemed to be rushed. Overall it was a catastrophe. One thing that really disappointed me was the acting. The actors and actress seemed as if they had a really hard time relating to the character that they were playing. Which in opinion created non beliveable moments throughout the play for me.
The play “The Glass Menagerie”, written by Tennessee Williams uses symbols to establish and develop crucial themes and in general, to further the audience’s perspective of the play. The last scene of the play follows two pivotal events, the heartbreak for Laura when she discovers Jim is engaged to be married; her high school crush, and the departure of Tom. Both reflect great misfortune for the Wingfield family. I found throughout the play Williams did an excellent job drawing out emotional responses from his readers. I believe he was able to achieve this by use of the following themes, the difficult acceptance of reality, and the possibility of a true escape.
The love story between Mort and His wife Emy had been ended, and Emy started a new life with her another man who had been present in their mariage. Mort who is a writer seems very disappointed how things happened, and he looses his inspiration of writing, his life changed totally and every body around him recognized his strang new habits. The film was of a more gritty realism than of conventional techniques with bold shooting adaptations enhanced on screen. The film represents an author whose life became worse and worse, and deals with morality and misconception. The architecture and representation of space in this film played an important role to show the emotions of the characters, but also affect the emotions of the viewers, and it's the first objectif of film directors.
The scene begins with him explaining his theory to Valentine, Chloë and Gus. Bernard appears arrogant whilst discussing his theory using language such as “undoubtedly” to support his weak claim. Stage directions present him as domineering and almost aggressive, he’s described as “(…pacing around…)”, an animalistic description. This adds a comical effect to the play because due to the time shifts in previous scenes, we know Bernard is setting himself up for failure and embarrassment. Stoppard further explores the idea of there being a universal pursuit for knowledge in scene 7 when studious characters Hannah and Septimus are on stage at the same time, by this it’s possible Stoppard is trying to express that those who are constantly seeking an answer miss out - Septimus is the hermit Hannah spent so much time looking for.
It is important this is revealed before the scene as it creates dramatic irony because the audience knows such a significant detail of the play, yet Juliet doesn't, even though it's her getting married. Shakespeare uses the contrast between love and hate to add tension to the scene, like when Capulet clashes with a distraught Juliet after she refuses to marry Paris. Shakespeare structures this scene to create dramatic tension. Romeo, Capulet, Lady Capulet and the Nurse all make entrances or exits which leads to a chaotic and panicky sort of atmosphere. The audience emotions would be changing constantly because everyone who enters the scene has something important to say that could potentially change the course of the play.
In the opening of Hamlet, Shakespeare quickly establishes a sense of ambiguity and mystery, in which the audience is immediately consumed. Through the initial exchange between Barnado and Francisco - ‘Who’s there?’ to which Francisco replies ‘Nay answer me. Stand and unfold yourself.’ - Shakespeare secures this dominant mood of uncertainty and fear. The men’s verse do not flow, and so their broken fragments of speech emphasise this atmosphere of unease. Francisco’s unexplained phrase of ‘I am sick a heart’ further generates a sense of anxiety, and it spreads amongst the audience.
In Macbeth’s as well as Shakespeare’s thinking, all people in this life are just bad, stupid actors- shouting and running about and generally making a lot of noise and fuss but not much sense, and then they die anyway and become completely meaningless. With another metaphor, he considers his life is not different from an idiot's tale which is full of bombast and melodrama, but without meaning. Shakespeare may be so depressed when he wrote these final lines that he considers life as walking shadow and not real enough. In my opinion, when writing these lines, Shakespeare want to send us a message that life is something that we have to take as it comes and it is unpredictable, when being brought to life we have to accept it and to necessarily beautify it. The naked truth is
The problem with my pseudo thinking is that when it comes time for me to have a response I have no clue what was said during the conversation because the only thing I focused on was the topic of discussion. My defensive listening has put me in bad situations with many people, mostly with my wife, I lash out at people because I feel threatened and with my lack of attention I miss parts of the conversation, and that makes it that much more like I am being attacked. Everyone can increase attention by realizing its importance, avoiding the common tendency to day dream, fighting the tendency to give in to
