Film Movie Mary
458 words
The dark and surrealistic movie by David Lynch's
Eraserhead (1977). The abstraction was aggressive
to describe, giving the viewers a cinematic poem
rather than a visual story. The subconscious was
in charge of making this movie. The sublimity of
fear delivered in paradigmatic manner. The movie
starts in an otherworldly place, a place
indescribable. Industrial landscapes, which added
to the coldness of the environment. The film was
entirely shot in black and white, which added to
the strangeness ...

WHY NOTHING IS INTERESTING? When one contemplates
how the "show about nothing" could be so comical
one starts to wonder just how nothing can provide
such an interesting topic for the comedies of
life. In life something is what people think
about. People worry about details or they worry
about the big picture. The little nothings that
trouble people only for a single moment of a
single day are quickly forgotten. Rather its a
place to hide at work or a bad day with a coworker

Coast Plaza. I sat in my car for ten minutes in
the parking in front of Macys. I just sat there;
the first 3 - 4 minutes of the experiment I was
bored out of my mind. I started to notice my heart
beating, my palms were sweaty, my left eye was
twitching, and my stomach was making noises. All
of these bodily functions were making their
presence known to me. And then I noticed that I

North By Northwest Alfred Hitchcock

Directory Auteurism of Frederico Fellini, Satyajit
Ray, and Alfred Hitchcock Auteurism is a term
first coined by Francois Truffaut to describe the
mark of a film director on his films. A director
can be considered an auteur if about five of his
film depict a certain style that is definitely his
own. In other words, much like one can look at a
painting and tell if it is a Monet, a Renoir, or a
Degas, if a film director is an auteur, one can
look at his film and tell by style and recurring
themes ...

conditions, and everything is controlled by

Rest Of The Family Lay Dying
1,059 words
The differences between the two novels Women of
Brewster's place by Gloria Naylor and As I lay
dying by William Faulkner are many and varied.
They differ in their tone, style, handling of
characters and overall continuity. That, however,
is not the topic of this essay. What I will be
assessing is how these two authors handle the
theme of family. Do they find that family is a
support or a trap for the individuals in the
story? Maybe both. Do they differ in their way of
thinking or are they of one...
