I watched Star Wars with my brother -Dave- for the first time one Christmas and from then on we were both hooked. Star Wars on telly at Christmas became our tradition. It was the only thing that was predictable and good; amongst the instability of our family home.

At the beginning of the novel, Montag thinks that their relationship is just fine; in fact, he declares to himself that he is perfectly happy. However, when he gets home that first night, to find Mildred comatose after a suicide attempt, then he starts to wonder if he and Mildred really are happy. Then, when Clarisse pulls the dandelion "you're not in love with anyone" stunt, he is even more startled. He realizes that he can't even remember when he and Mildred first met. He realizes that they don't really have a relationship at all--he goes to work, she watches her television, and they don't talk.
We just came back to the ranch and had a dance in one of the barns. It was wonderful but I didn’t see any of my family, and the only friends there seemed to be the workers, and every one of them was frightened of Curley. He got really aggravated if one of the guys asked if I wanted to dance. Not really a dream wedding but I was so happy to be heading for Hollywood. Two months down the line and Curley hardly talks to me now.
The task often refers to a superhuman feat that has to be completed to finish the ultimate goal. The ultimate goal in the movie is to have fun in Las Vegas and get Doug back in time for his wedding, but when things go wrong and the four guys wake up and its time to leave for home, they all remember nothing and Doug is nowhere to be found. This is superhuman because all three of the guys don’t remember anything and they had very little time to find Doug. They find a single clue that one of them was in the hospital so they went to the hospital and based their entire search on that. The guys go through many things to find Doug and when they do they barely have any time to get to the wedding.
“Someone had challenged their god, humiliated him” (42) Hassan points the slingshot towards Assef, and it is very significant. Assef is frightened, but more importantly, a Hazara is standing up for himself, not a Pashtun. 7. “I never slept the night before the tournament. I'd roll from side to side, make shadow animals on the wall, even sit on the balcony in the dark, a blanket wrapped around me.” (49) Amir’s insomnia is significant throughout the novel.
His teachers would say he would go nowhere in life, his parents would fight continuously and he found it very difficult to make friends. Tim Burton dropped out of school when he was 15 years old. Despite all of Tim’s childhood problems, Tim has managed to incorporate them and his life values into his films, which is how he has had such a long term success as a movie director. One of Burton’s most successful films is the movie Edward Scissor hands. The movie is about a man named Edward who has scissors for hands and tries to fit into the ‘perfect society’.
No one suspects that he is the father of Pearl, so for seven years he acts like another person. Even though Hester is a target to the townspeople and suffers the embarrassment every day, Dimmesdale does not. Isolation makes Dimmesdale physically change. “In Mr. Dimmesdale’s secret closet, under lock and key, there was a bloody scourge. Oftentimes, this Protestant and Puritan divine had plied it on his own shoulders; laughing bitter at himself while, and smiting so much the more pitilessly, because of that bitter laugh” (Hawthorne 106).
Often I think what wonderful carvings never came to birth because he died. How many jokes are missing from the world, and how many homing pigeons untouched by his hands? He shaped the world. He did things to the world. The world was bankrupted of ten million fine actions the night he passed on.” This quote really spoke to me because of all the science fiction in this book Ray really brought out the realism in this quote.
The boy from “Araby” was alone, with this feeling that he could not make sense of because his faith tells him that they are a sin. Something similar happened with Nickles as Sebacher says, “That night, unable to sleep, Nickles drove his Nova out to her house. The house was completely dark and vacant-looking, but he knew she was there. He felt as though all the light had left the world, which was not an entirely unpleasant feeling, somehow. The loneliness of interstellar space, he said to himself-a line from Ulysses Robert [his best friend] often recited” (Sebacher 1).
