“At the heart of On the Waterfront is an exploration of how individuals are products of their environment.” Discuss The film ‘On the Waterfront,’ explores a number of different characters and how they are in relation to their environment and the environment they grew up in. Contrasting individuals are Edie and Terry. One who has been brought up in a school with nuns, and the other who has dealt with the corruption of ‘the mob’ their whole life. However, is the individual truly changed or developed by their environment or do some people grow up far from where their environment directed them? Kazan has shown ways a person’s environment can affect their character through the use of film technique.
The director shows this by the sounds and angles of the camera during scenes and by the way many people talk at once shows the differences of life between the city and the peacefulness of Samuels home. The close up on Samuel’s face during the murder with the expression of terrified face with a wide open eyes and the tension of the music shows us the corruption of his innocence and the conflict with the world around him there is also another evidence when he tells Eli that he would only kill the bad man. Schaefer, McFee and Fergie go to the Amish world looking for john book they are faced with many obstacles. When thewy first enter arrive at the farm, the soundtrack and the close up view on the guns are there to remind us the violence and show us that that is the only way they could keep their corruption. The gun fires between John Book and McFee are there to represent the violence and even earlier in the film at the parking area, the guns are used as a symbol of thriller and crime.
The Sacred Even the casual viewer of The Shawshank Redemption may be struck by the repetitively religious tone of the dialogue, where biblical allusions are at every turn. In his first words of the film, Red swears by “God’s honest truth”; Heywood exclaims “Sweet Jesus!” when he learns Andy is innocent; and Warden Norton sarcastically screams “”Lord, it’s a miracle!” when faced with his own demise (There are many more examples throughout the film.). The constant repetition of religious allusions has a cumulative effect upon the viewer, suggesting one interpretation of the film. Another key theme introduced at an
Three of the characters that Chaucer used to embody this corruption in within the church were the Friar, the Pardoner, and the Summoner. All three men were employed by the church, and had the power to help absolve from sin the masses; but each of the men also had a price. Just as the Catholic Church was enshrined with riches, gold churches built on the backs of the masses, the men who worked in it did just the same. The absolute hypocrisy of the church, and their willingness to use power and money to rule would end up being their downfall, as it was the masses were quickly becoming wise to the dishonesty within the church and the people running it. Chaucer used his craft to highlight this dishonesty, and through stinging satire he shows us just what he thought of the Catholic Church, with his descriptions of the Friar , the Pardoner, and the Summoner.
The story follows the turmoil that the Jesuits endure while they try to build their mission and help the people of the community. The mission in the movie is public, which contrasts with the story in “Silence.” Father Gabriel and his people are able to open talk about their mission. While some people of the community are still unsettled with their mission, but law doesn’t permit for their actions to be punishable. Missions during the time were protected under Spanish law, but when the law of protection was overturned Father Gabriel and his men openly fight. They candidly fight for their right to be able to protect the people of the community from slavery, and have a place of warmth and comfort in the village.
At the climax of the story, when he realizes that his dreams of holiness and love are inconsistent with the actual world, his anger and anguish are directed, not toward the Church, but toward himself as “a creature driven by vanity”(Joyce 233) — Someone who chase after. The story opens with a description of the Dublin neighborhood where the boy lives. Strikingly suggestive of a church, the image shows the ineffectuality of the Church as a vital force in the lives of the inhabitants of the neighborhood — the faithful within the Church. North Richmond Street is composed of two rows of houses with “brown imperturbable faces” (Joyce Para 1) — the pews — leading down to the tall “uninhabited house”(Joyce Para 1) — the empty altar — The boy’s own home is set in a garden, the natural state of which would be like Paradise, since it contains a “central apple tree”(Joyce Para 2); however, those who should have cared for it have allowed it to become desolate, and the central tree stands alone amid a few straggling bushes. Since the boy is the narrator, the inclusion of these symbolic images in the description of the setting shows that the boy is sensitive to the lack of spiritual beauty in his surroundings.
November 19th 2011 Hum110 Justice in the Book of Job The Book of Job relays the story of a righteous man named Job, who has many children and is very prosperous.

God eventually talks to Job making it clear that his actions need no explanation.
Dr. King’s Letter Analysis While trapped in a jail cell Dr. King wrote an extremely long letter stating his argument using ethos, pathos, and logos to the clergymen of Birmingham. The brilliance of his letter details the facts and the emotional civil issues that are still happening during his time of fame. In this essay I will break his letter, or book, by extracting the ethos, pathos and logos from beginning to end. In the title of the letter our civil rights hero uses ethos to show that he is equal to the clergymen and they are equal to him. He does this because he does not want the men to see him as a person on a lower standard or lower level than they are.
