Essay: Shakespeare’s Tragedy
... hatred towards Romeo (654). While Tybalt is alive he directs to us the audience that he will keep up the fight until the end. His vitality is destroyed when he losses the fight and is slayed by Romeo.
Furthermore, it is brought to our attention in how a persons innoncence is demolished. “O, I am fortunes fool” (654) as Romeo states. By this he means that he feels that the stars did this purposly. The people see the loss of his purity when he is sentenced to exile by the Prince, for the murder of Tybalt. As Romeo is sentenced he becomes aware he must pay for what he has done.
More importantly, when Romeo’s virtue is ruined the characters make it well known to t ...

Grease: Theme
... good movie -- you can't say anything nice about XANADU, so don't say anything at all.
People also love GREASE because it's the quintessential 50's nostalgia movie. It has everything, from the slumber party and malt shop to the dance contest and drag race. Better yet, it has a sense of humor about those days, to the point of including ultimate icon Frankie Avalon in the "Beauty School Dropout" dream sequence.
That brings up the main draw of GREASE -- the music. As I type this, at least one Top 40 station across the country is playing the "Grease Megamix," a medley of the three most popular songs from the movie ("You're the One That I Want," "Greased Lightning" and ...

Julius Caesar: Jealousy
... Cassius has a lean and hungry look; / He thinks too much:
such men are dangerous" (Act I, sc. II, 194-195). Cassius thinks that Caesar's
temper is dangerous. He declares, "Ye gods! It doth amaze me, / A man of such a
feeble temper should / So get the start of the majestic world, / And bear the
palm alone" (Act I, sc. II, 128-131).
Casca also is jealous of Caesar. He is disgusted by Caesar's
manipulation of the commoners. He describes it as "mere foolery" (Act I, sc. II,
235). Casca agrees with Cassius that Brutus is an essential part the
conspiracy. He says, "O, he sits high in all the people's hearts; / And that
which would appear offense in us, / Hi ...

Movie: Delta Force - Suicide In Chinatown
... to decide quickly the
situation...
There were many couples in the movie theater and during one of the most
violent part of the film, a couple stood up and pulled out two gun machines that
were in a suitcase.
They were, apparently, a normal couple. The blond man using beard was
wearing sport clothes. He was carrying a medium black and white suitcase, from
where they pulled the gun. The woman was also young, may be working to 20 or 22
years old. She was wearing shorts and a red shirt.
She was the most nervous and she was the one who ordered everybody to
line on the floor and picked the guys as hostages.
When they ordered the hostages to line on the floor, one girl ...

King Henry IV And Joseph Strorm: Archtypical Fathers
... and since he is acting this way, the
people will not want him to be the King. The King has his own ideas on how he
thinks that the Prince should live, and for that reason has made the
relationship between them very difficult. If only the King would have been more
accepting, the Prince could have lived more like himself. Joseph Strorm is a
father with very strict rules. He cares more about the physical make up of a
person than he does about the actual personality of the person. In the story a
very cold side of Joseph Strorm is shown; he never gets close to his son at all.
The only conversation shared between Joseph and his children are harsh and is
often punish ...

A Streetcar Named Desire
... and they ride away on a beautiful oceanic voyage. The most interesting part of Blanche is that through her unstable thinking she has come to believe the things she imagines. Her flashy sense of style and imagination hide the truly tragic story about her past. Blanche lost Belle Reve but, moreover, she lost the ones she loved in the battle. The horror lied not only in the many funerals but also in the silence and the constant mourning after. One cant imagine how it must feel to lose the ones they love and hold dear but to stay afterwards and mourn the loss of the many is unbearable. Blanche has had a streak of horrible luck. Her husband killing himself after sh ...

Forbidden Planet Comparison To Shakespeare's The Tempest
... but rather is, for all intents and purposes, magic.
This is undoubtedly in part because the technology doesn't exist and therefore
cannot be explained to us. What is more important, however, is that how the
technology works is irrelevant for the purpose of the movie, which is to
entertain and to teach us a lesson about man's control over the elements and
over his own technological creations.
At this point a brief synopsis of the movie would seem to be in order,
with special attention as to how it relates to The Tempest.
In The Tempest, a man named Prospero and his daughter Miranda have been
exiled to a remote island which is completely uninhabited, save for a ...

Macbeth’s Tragic Flaw
... Cawdor, and “shalt be king hereafter!”(I.iii.53). Upon reading the letter Lady Macbeth starts to sway Macbeth “To catch the nearest way. Though wouldst be great,”(I.v.18). She then goes on and acts as if the witches have stated facts and says, ”That which cries ‘Thus thou must do,’ if thou have/it,”(I.v.25-26). Lady Macbeth urged on Macbeth, making the witches’ prophecy become true.
Lady Macbeth mutters about Duncan’s murder while sleepwalking. This confession could lead to her and Macbeth’s death. Unknowingly Lady Macbeth mumbles “Here’s the smell of the blood still.All/the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little/hand. O, O, O!”(V.i.53-55). Lady Macb ...

Dear Richard III Society
... people, including, having his young nephews murdered!
It also seems as along with being involved with the murders of many people, Richard III was also a coward. It appears that Richard III always had his dirty work done for him by his henchmen because he was to much of a coward to do it himself.
Last but no least, Richard III has to be one of the most selfish men to walk the face of this earth. Being royalty just wasn’t enough to Richard III, for most all people being a Duke would be more than they could ever dream for, but not for Richard, he wanted the throne, and to do so had many people murdered along the way . He even started rumors about the ille ...
