Internalizing Your Goals: "The Psychology Of Winning"
... a career in Marketing with the opportunity to use my skills in computer graphic art and animation. Going back to school is one of my preliminary goals.
Desire. If their is a goal in life you would like to achieve, weather small or large, your next step in achieving this goal is to desire it. Tell your self what you want to accomplish. Your better off making smaller goals to start which will eventually pay off in bigger goals. The best way to succeed at anything is to see your self doing it and doing it well. I know the one major component of this equation I lack is the motivation and drive to follow through with the tasks I set for my self. Motivati ...

The Shawshank Redemption
... of direction under Frank Darabont.
He interweaves scenes with nice fluid shots. The shots are not jarring or rough
cut. Darabont tends to take the story at a distance allowing the characters to
establish their traits to the audience instead of pushing a barrage of angles
at the audience. The position of the camera is intricately placed in all scenes.
The movie is a perfect example of classical cinema.
The most unique part about the style of the movie is in the
cinematography by Roger Deakins. The whole story looks like it was filmed with
a blue filter. The filters give a special beauty to the scenes, which in turn
causes more dramatic feelings for the audience. ...

The Cause Of Macbeth's Ruin
... and always demands more.
In Macbeth's first meeting with the witches he is told that he is to be the
Thane of Cawdor and king. Soon after he was told these prophesies he already
becomes eager to learn more; his eagerness is shown when he tells the witches,
"Stay you imperfect speakers, tell me more" (Act.1,Sc.3,Ln.70). Later in the
same scene Ross, a Scottish noble, presents Macbeth with the title Thane of
Cawdor and here he realized that the prophesies are true. The veracity of these
prophesies disturb Macbeth because at this point he is already filled with the
notion of being king and murder as the way of attaining that title. Macbeth
even asks himself; ...

Review Of "Saving Private Ryan"
... patriotism. We must look
more closely. This isn't standard-issue symbology. The flag is blasted
out, bleeding of all colors. It signals that something fundamental has
been lost forever. Saving Private Ryan is a patriotic film. How could it
not be, possessed of such reverence for the suffering endured by so many
soldiers in the defense of a nation? As difficult as it may be to
distinguish between national pride and blind nationalism, Spielberg makes
his film by insisting on visualizing an overwhelming sorrow at the loss of
so much human life, and a similarly gratitude for the sacrifices that have
been made. The flag in this certain frame represents ever ...

"Planet Of The Apes"
... movie. When they were being chased
and whipped like animals, would they not have been able to plot an escape to
avoid capture and imprisonment by the apes if they had been able to communicate?
Yes, they would have been free to live as equals. The apes and the humans would
have been co-inhabitants of the earth rather than creatues in a superior-
inferior relationship. "Planet of the Apes" is a perfect example of why
language is so important.
Another reason I am disputing Mr. Burrough's opinion of this movie is its
strong message concerning how humans were treated by apes. When we watched
"Planet of the Apes," we cannot fail to notice the mutes are treated. ...

Understanding The Misunderstood Art From Different Cultures
... prehistoric times of the cave man to present day, art has depicted religious
scenes native to a specific culture. This is where most of the cultural
boundaries lie. To one person, a smiling monkey can instill a primal feeling of
fear, while to another the first reaction is one of amusement. This difference
in reaction is based upon religious upbringing, and nothing more. To certain
culture, a smiling monkey is the scariest thing they could ever imagine, and to
another, it means laughter. A close minded person viewing an ancient religious
mask would see nothing more than nonsense, while one who wishes to understand
art would see the beauty of that culture ...

The Chocolate War: Comparison Between Book And Movie
... bills and puts food on the table, and says hello and
goodbye.
The differences between the book and the movie were substantial.
In the movie there was a fight at the end, and Jerry beat Archie up. And
in the book there was no two person fight. At the end of the movie Obie
becomes head of the Vigils and Archie is reduced in rank. Archie get the
marble in the movie but not in the book. There is no music in the book,
but there is in the movie.
I liked the movie better than the book. It was better because
Jerry got even with Archie for once. And that in my opinion, is a better
way to end a movie like the Chocolate War. I just feel that movies are
more helpful. ...

The Crucible: The Transition Of John Proctor's Character
... to have respect for himself once again, he must break off all
ties with Abigail. When Abigail mentioned to Proctor the relationship she
and he once had, he said to her, "No, no, Abby. That's done with," and,
"Abby, you'll put it out of mind. I'll not be comin' for you more." Even
when Abigail tried to persuade Proctor to admit his love for her, he still
denied it and claimed he had no love for her any longer. She said to him,
"I know how you clutched my back behind your house and sweated like a
stallion whenever I came near! Or did I dream that? It's she put me out,
you cannot pretend it were you. I saw your face when she put me out, and
you loved me then, ...

The Development Of Dance And Theatre In The East Asian Nations
... BC-AD 220) palace singers acted out warriors’ stories, the forerunners of military plays in later Chinese opera, and by the time of the Three Kingdoms (AD 220-280) clay puppets were used to enact plays. These evolved into glove-and-stick puppets in later years.
T’ang period.
The emperor Hsuan-tsung showed interest in the performing arts, stimulating many advances in stage arts during the T'ang dynasty(618-907). More than a thousand pupils were enrolled in music, dance, and acting schools. Spectacular masked court dances and masked Buddhist dance processions that soon were learned by Korean and Japanese performers were part of court life. Three types of play are r ...

Romeo & Juliet
... when he says "In one respect I'll thy
assistant be; for this alliance may so happy prove, to turn your households
rancour to pure love."(Act 2, Scene 3), he is saying that the only reason
he will marry Romeo and Juliet is because he hopes that the marriage will
end the hostilities between the two houses. When he says "Shall Romeo by
my letters know our drift, and hither shall he come; and he and I shall
watch thy waking, and that very night shall Romeo bear thee to Mantua."
(Act 4, Scene 1), he tells Juliet how everything will be all right.
Unfortunately, for all his good intentions the play still ends in tragedy.
Friar Lawrence is a man who is not afraid to ...
