Riefenstahl’s production of the feature films Triumph of the Will and Olympia have left a lasting imprint on history; these films established Riefenstahl’s influential career as a film director under the years of the Nazi regime. Although these films are attributed by scholars and critics to be Riefenstahl’s greatest achievements they are also considered to be her greatest fault, for the political denotation attached to their purpose. Before World War II, Riefenstahl was praised for her artistic achievements of these films, however the post war years present a hostile reception to her work, as they have since been decontextualized and criticized for their questionable propagandist content. Riefenstahl’s impact on history has changed greatly overtime, as she is remembered for both her artistic contribution to the social and cultural life of Germany and pioneering of revolutionary cinematography and in contrast her association with the Nazi party and her apparent glorification of the ‘Fascist aesthetic’. The artistic flair behind Riefenstahl’s production of Triumph of the Will lays testimony to her revolutionary filming technique that assiduously cultivated her image as the one of the greatest female artists of her era.

Hester’s own deception eventually affects herself. First, Hester is
After reading the article written by Sue Ellen Grealy I can understand her frustration and anger toward Patchett for writing this expose on her sister.. In her article she admits Ann would have been a better sister to Lucy than she was and she feels guilty about this fact. After reading the book Sue Ellen felt hurt even though she did not doubt the validity of Lucy's relationship with Ann or the facts. There is no doubt If Ann Patchett truly loved Lucy why would she tarnish her

Throughout college, high school, and even middle school I have seen women be degraded by men and the words to describe them. I, myself have been called many names that to women are offensive, but to men they’re just common describing words. You can call a man any word that is deemed offensive, and they brush it off almost as a compliment in many cases. Women on the other hand are quite the opposite. When calling a woman an offensive word it is degrading and insulting but is more and more common in
No one realized our relation until I was graduated. Another thing is that I lost my patience to work on my project and ripped the paper. She came and told me “Failure is the mother of success” I still remember her word today. She is a tough woman. Her behaviors and traits influence me deeply.
