In Sullivan’s Travels, the montage of the casualties of the Depression that Sullivan witnesses underscores everything that the movie had previously eluded too. Like Sullivan, the audience does not appreciate how horribly that time affected people and those few seconds articulated the sentiment like no words could. The movie itself, made during the Depression, does what Sullivan realizes he needs to do—make a movie that gets people to laugh through the hard times. As Sullivan says, “There's a lot to be said for making people laugh… It isn't much, but it's better than nothing.” While in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, there is not one line that sums up the entire movie’s premise, there is a lot more than one montage to show us. The audience sees Mr. Smith fighting for something he believes in, despite everything that suddenly hits him.
Sharmane Hughes English 101 Ms. Evans 19 September 2012 Assignment #6 Contradicting Denial Tom Junod’s article, “The Falling Man,” debuted a behind the scenes view of how the tragedy of 9/11 affected many different people in various types of ways. Some people were emotionally connected to the tragedy because of the fact that they had lost love ones in the process. Others might be emotionally attached because of the amount of sadness that flooded the United States. Everyone was scared and left wondering what was going to happen next.

From the very beginning, the views were bombarded with horrible and tragic animations of Meryl dying, the animations were thoughts Meryl had been the result of her, constantly being exposed to deaths. When Meryl comes back from her father’s funeral, she begins to imagine how she would die, where it is a train derailing and crushing her, getting run over by a car while crossing the road or just being strangled by a stranger she just saw. These animations tell the viewer how Meryl is obsessed with imagining extremely pessimistic situations, the animations don’t always occur when Meryl experience something tragic but it’s constantly swimming through her thoughts. For example when Nick and Meryl make love, Meryl imagines she gets AIDS or end up with multiple sick and deformed babies. Meryl’s animations always revolve around her getting killed or end up in a horrible situation, which illustrates the fears and anxieties she is experiencing.
As Jack quickly finds out, lying about your true name to win the girl of your dreams can be successful, but also have consequences. Our emotions and needs can lead us down a shameful path and although we may get everything we wanted, our journey to get there may be bombarded with sinister deeds. These acts can leave us with negative emotions such as depression. Victor struggled to battle his inner demons and he suffered from a strong case of depression.

Hughes uses his poem, The Minotaur, to try to manipulate the audience to see a different view of their marriage, and to make people feel sympathetic towards him. Hughes portrays his wife Sylvia Plath as violent, irrational, and out of control. This is shown in the way he shows her, in lines such as “The mahogany table-top you smashed”. The onomatopoeia of “smashed” further emphasises her violent personality. Later in the poem, Hughes accuses his wife of abandoning her family.
Often the wounds’ pain drives the sufferer to desperate measures of madness” (6). Granny Weathall’s unhealable wound is her being jilted by a man whom she considered to be a love of her
Its just I cant help thinking about this girl-destroying her life so horribly.’ This shows Sheila feels commiseration and sensitivity towards Eva and her death which comes across as genuine regret when she realises she could be linked to her suicide. Mr Birling interrupts her questioning by becoming even more aggressive when trying to defend her daughter. The phrase ‘why the devil do you want to go upsetting a child like that’ that he uses shows he is more concerned that his daughter has been affected by feelings of guilt and shame for what they might have done to Eva Smith. He doesn’t realise the depth of the familys involvement and still feels able to be bitter and outspoken towards the inspector. However, this does impact the inspector at all because he continues his questioning with Sheila further.
Wiesel wrote about how horrible it seemed to lose one’s innocence. He did not realize that he had lost some of his own as well. Like Wiesel, many other victims still feel troubled by the painful memories that follow them. Roman, one of the countless victims of the Nazis, wrote a short yet perceptive poem about her lingering reflections; the powerful calamities caught the reader by surprise. Through Wiesel and Roman’s stories about their loss of innocence and haunting memories, we learned that the cruel and obscene methods used by the Nazis and SS Officers caused the vicious afterthoughts of those who survived the horrifying experiences that no human should endure.
It reveals that her son was killed at war and that she is unable to surpass through her grief. It shows that she is so overcome by her grief that she is unable to act normally in social situations and that everything she sees, she somehow links it back to her dead son.

Mrs. Davis told Finance Corp. that its visits to her at the hospital where she visited her ailing daughter were upsetting her daughter so much that her recovery was being impeded.

Upon hearing this, Finance Corp. suspended its visits to the hospital. At a later date, Davis informed Finance that "its harassment was driving her
