Dement adds statistics about the cost to clean up the Exxon Valdez oil spill before telling the audience the purpose of the paper. Unnecessary comments are made about the oil spill itself including the smell, the consequences, and his personal ties to the situation, instead of relating sleep to the cause of the disaster. At the end of the section, Dement reveals the connection between sleep and the spill, but not before getting off on a tangent and putting the real issue aside (Dement 498-499). The next example where sleep deprivation plays a role is the Challenger explosion, which gets little explanation as to how sleep was directly related to the tragedy (Dement 499). Dement brings in a scenario of a teenage death to their parents due to sleep deprivation which had no link to the previous topic and was not expanded on to tie it back to the main idea of the paper (Dement 499).
Summary and motifs of Scarlet Letter chapter 4 I was unable to find the paper on what this journal is designed to be about in my binder or on the class website so I figured I would just result to the original journal format from “The Scarlet Letter” 1. Act 4 2. Summary- This is relatively slow and short act, most likely because they final outcome of the story is basically revealed in the previous act. It starts off in the town jail, with a scene of Tituba and Sarah Good in jail together talking about a journey they will make with their king, more commonly known as the devil. It is at this point that Herrick enters the room requesting Tituba to come with him, most likely for execution.
Miss Campbell March 28, 2011 English 2201 Adam loder Comparison Essay The movies Twelfth Night and She’s the Man both have some similarities and differences that the Authors expressed in their own ways. The ways the author uses these is through setting and tone. The movie Twelfth Night was a play written by William Shakespeare. The setting is the time and place of where the action takes place. The setting is a main point in this movie because when Viola discovers her brother is missing and she thinks he is dead, she goes into disguise as her brother.
It will further discuss the solution and options which can be used to overcome the issues faced by the Hotel. Background and Issues The reason for signing a contract with HI (Hotel International) was to make the Roaring Dragon into a five star hotel of international standards. It looks like reading newspapers, sleeping and playing cards during the working hours were happening since long time. Tian Wen’s management never opposed such activities so if a new management tries to stop you doing the regular activities then it was certain that it was not going to work. The Erih T should have asked the HI to do a study on RDH even before signing a contract.
In the scene after Melinda got raped for example. In the movie it seemed like they just put it in there because they had to, not because it was a key element to the telling of the story, it wasn’t dramatized in the way the book depicted it. I also felt as if the flashbacks came too abruptly during the film. In the novel, you were left wondering throughout the majority of the book. What
Author O’Brian also confuses the reader by writing his novel as if everything that was told took place in the real world. For example, just by saying “this is true” (64) doesn’t always make it true. O’Brian leaves it up to the reader to distinct what they see the story as: reality or fiction. It is said that “a true war story… makes the stomach believe” (74). Author and character O’Brian tell the story in such a way to make it believable that the two different people are really the same person.
The first scene I am going to look at is the scene in which Will Hunting, played by Matt Damon, explains why he does not want to work for the NSA. This scene takes place one hour and 28 minutes into the film. The opening shot of this scene is of a tall building, this is the establishing shot, and we can tell from this shot that this is the location. Something I noticed about this shot was that the audio from the next shot started before we see the image of the next shot, i.e. we hear Will talking before we see him along with the sounds of traffic that go along with the shot of the building.
Paul Longmire English 253 Instructor: Richard Yost Usually when a film is based upon a novel, there will be many differences between the novel and the actual movie—this happens to be the case with Charles Frazier’s novel Cold Mountain and Anthony Minghella’s movie Cold Mountain. Some of the differences between the novel and the movie are the way characters are portrayed in the novel compared to the movie, the way specific scenes in the novel are illustrated on screen, and how symbols are revealed in the movie compared to the novel. A major difference between the two is the way the novels ends compared to Minghella’s movie. A difference as significant as this can change a person’s view on how they should interpret each work. In the novel,
Life Sucks Screen play adaptations commonly differ from the book on which they are based. Just like gossip between peers is enhanced for entertainment purposes, films are enhanced for these purposes as well. Between Frankenstein, a novel by Mary Shelley, and the screen play adaptation, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, by Kenneth Branagh, there are numerous differences in detail. Nonetheless, there are similarities in the undertone of both mediums that portray mutual morals. However, it would be a blatant falsehood to say that this film adaptation is free from inaccuracy, somehow above reproach, or indeed perfect.
However, the way they presented the book and the styles of writing are very different. One should be focus on the purpose of writing these books in order to compare them. Bernier wrote this book as if it was the diary for his stay in Mogul Empire. I assumed that he did not have any plan to see or to do in Mogul Empire. Professor Liu once mentioned that “the doctor travelled without purpose.” It is the main reason why we can read a lot of random materials in this book.
