As we all know a huge part of a book is taken away when making movie, that is so the movie can make more sense. Well in the case of “Flatland” by Edward Abbott there are a couple of similarities and differences. The differences include the existence of area 33h, a riot was caused when the square revealed the existence of the third dimension, and the grandson of the square thought of the idea being merely foolish. Some similarities from both the movie and book would be the hypocrisy of the sphere when asked about the fourth dimension, the line king being scared when the square appeared, and the circles having the upper hand in flat land. At the beginning of the movie it is said that a secret monument in the center of flatland exist however
‘Suddenly he awoke’ is a metaphor because he hasn’t just woken up. It could mean that he has just realised what is going on because the conflict has taken over his mind. ‘Running’ shows that he is heading towards or away from the conflict. Similarly In ‘At the Border, 1979’ a family are essentially ‘running’ away from conflict to escape death and to seek a better life. ‘we grabbed a drink – soon everything would taste different.’ ‘we grabbed a drink’ shows how desperate they are because they didn’t just get a drink they ‘grabbed’ a drink.
7. The effect of the collapsing time in the final paragraph is that it had really emphasized his terror of remembering the war because even though the war was a huge impact part of his life O’Brien fears the memories of it. The rhetorical effect of this irony is that he spent so much thought over going or not going to war that the memories of the war was given no details whatsoever. It was almost not considered as important as the decision. 8.
By definition an honorable suicide is a process whereby a person commits suicide to escape the shame of an immoral action. In my opinion, the issue was the controversial incest aspect of remaking the film. American film goers gravitate towards action packed thrillers, horror or murder films, and on some occasions success is found in gore or torture pieces. Lee’s remake of South Korean and Japanese Classic don’t appeal to our society’s ideology. Consanguinity is the challenge and key issue that imitates the entire plot of the film.
This film kills off Simon Cowell, Bill O’Riley, Westboro Baptist Church, and snobby T.V. teenage celebrities. The choice to create such accurate resemblances of the characters they were portraying was both genius and a little reckless. It pulls the audience into the story perfectly, but for people who don’t understand the film, it could potentially endanger the
The reviews garnered so much support that Hollywood started losing major profits on any movie deemed “Condemned” by the NLOD. The major movie producers in Hollywood began to have the NLOD review movies before they were published, and eventually began having the NLOD review the scripts before they were ever put to film. Though originally stringent, the NLOD became more morally lax as the morality of the nation as a whole changed. As the strictness of the Legion fell, it lost the dedication of those who thought they walked the moral high-ground. Due to the lack of attention to the Legion, the Legion became subsumed into multiple other Catholic organizations, and though it is still around, became unknown to the vast majority of Americans.
They kept re-running the footage to emphasize the tragedy and keep America’s focus, not so viewers that were just tuning in could see. Nobody wanted to state the obvious that, “We’ve Seen This Before” (140). The news footage looked like it was from a horror movie and because it was not realistic it made it seem like it was not actually happening in real life. Everyone is so used to seeing events like this in movies, but they are not used to it real
It was quality for this class because it incorporated the lines of mixer web’s fight on today’s social group. It is somewhat hyperbolic and unrealistic to workaday story but it test that Facebook and social web place are not all good. In general, I didn’t really like the picture show just in the sense that it scares me. I am the type of human body that can easily trust others and this movie second opine that whole idea. I also didn’t like that we didn’t find out where the real Megan was.
I wouldn’t recommend A Lesson Before Dying to a younger audience due to the fact that they may not understand why this film has an impact on people, and would be negative towards it. The movie should be rated at PG-13, to ensure younger audiences will not see the mature scenes. I believe Gaines could’ve done a better job with the film
In the story, Scrooge is a very cruel man. But then he sees what he has done and wants to change because he is terrified of his future. When people read the story, they want to learn about themselves and maybe even change to become better people. The story has a very positive message. In real life, of course, ghosts will not show up at peoples’ houses to show them their past, present, and future.
