The two flag raisings at Iwo Jima were at the time, not nearly as imperative as the missions that drove the men up Mt. Suribachi, but both raisings stirred stimulating economical and moral short and long-term effects. The film holds fairly true to first hoisting of the flag, with only minor discrepancies when faced with fact. Lou Lowery indeed had his camera ready while “Lieutenant Schrier, Platoon Sergeant Thomas, Jones 2 Sergeant Hanson, and Corporal Lindgerg converged on the pole” and also recruited Jim Michaels and his carbine for a drama
Without the bombs, the goal of getting the Japanese to surrender may have never been accomplished. This was our ultimate goal as we were still heated after the Japanese actions on Pearl Harbor. Another widely overlooked advantage of dropping the bombs was that it aided the survival of POW’s. Throughout Japan there were camps that held American soldiers under the control of the Japanese. By using these two strategically aimed bombs, we were able to avoid killing our own troops in these camps and by forcing the Japanese to surrender, we got our troops back
Ultimately, The Birds short story by Daphne Du Maurier had the best carried element of suspense at the point in humanity when horror was less prevalent. Intermittently, the plots of The Birds, film and story, touch base rarely and the anecdote reels the viewer in much stronger than the movie. Daphne Du Maurier ushers one through her world with three strengths that Alfred Hitchcock did not have, partially because he was too focused on the plot, and partly because he did not read the piece- he skimmed it. As an artist, one can say that both had strengths and weaknesses, however, The Birds short story planted suspense thoroughly in the mind of the perceiver in ways the movie didn’t. Blatantly, Alfred Hitchcock introduces his movie with a shot of cawing birds, establishing suspense, and then drops the audience on their rears, stranded with a few shots of squawking birds.
This would include not bringing very important bombs and mortar shells and heavier guns, these weapons were close to or equivalent to the German artillery. After this event the allies made sure to correct their tanks and ended up inventing the “Crocodile” and the “ Duplex-Drive” which were a big success for many raids. Although the raid on Dieppe seemed like a big failure, it actually set an example of what not to do, and taught many people valuable lessons. It is well argued that without these mistakes future raids would have been an ultimate failure. this is also recongised in the words of Mountbatten: ‘that for every live lost at Dieppe, ten were save at
Each serves its purpose well; the steel frame buildings just do so with more flair. I like to think that only a good movie would still be watched after fifty-three years. But, everything good about the book is missing or distorted (plot, characters, details). The plot is too convoluted to make a movie. But the movie of The Big Sleep is still a success and, well, a good movie, just because they changed the plot and the characters.
Also, when regarding a historical event, the film production is irresponsible for educational function as they use dramatic license all the time. Even though the film had been blamed for numerous historical inaccuracies, it still succeeded and “[became] the number-one film worldwide for the calendar year 2001,” including Japan (“Pearl Harbor”). However, Pearl Harbor attack is a sensitive and significant subject whose historical contents should be treated carefully, to strike balance between entertaining purpose and educational
Ms. June Parachutes and Aerodynamics 8H Bell 2 12/3/14 Parachutes and Aerodynamics How have parachutes been used overtime and why are they important? The use of the parachute has varied for different needs and they are important because some of the uses were in historical events like World War II. To learn about parachutes fully, people have to understand the philosophy of aerodynamics, the history, the varying materials, types, and the vital characteristics. One person who most people think of as a famous artist during the Renaissance actually came up with the idea of a parachute, but had no impact on the development or creation of it. How can that happen if the person came up with the idea?
The sailors thought the arriving aircraft overhead was just another demonstration by navy fliers, however when explosions started rocking the harbor, the American crews concluded; this is not a drill. The unannounced
The Iridium technology was using 48 spot beams and TDMA method for user capacity. Iridium was a project with so many dreams. This project was started by the Motorola executive Barry Bertinger along with some engineers after a complaint from Karen Bertinger (wife of Barry Bertinger) saying “But we can’t go on vacation now, I’m just getting close to making the deal work. How can I close it from Green Turtle Cay-it’s one of the most remote island in the Bahamas! They won’t even have phone.” For understanding the failure of Iridium technology different factors are being considered to evaluate the disaster tale.
When trying to show thousands of warriors and thousands of ships, some of them would be computer generated, but it looked like all the sets had been built, which gave the movie a very authentic feel. The dialogues were kept to a minimum extent and the expressions from the artists were somewhat real especially, Achilles, Hector and Briseis. It was a bit longer and easily could have been edited down by 15-20 minutes. Overall, the movie Troy was entertaining; the acting was reliable for the most part and the action sequences were amusing. The movie Troy had some changes from the poem The Iliad but those changes did not necessarily alter the major idea conveyed by both the movie and the poem.
