Catcher In The Rye Kings In The Back
1,800 wordsThe Catcher and the Rye is not the kind of story with a meaningful story line, that is, knowing only that would indicate little on what it is about. The events told in the story, seem to unfold as flashbacks. We can sense a chronological order of events in Holden Caufield's story, although the order does not matter as much as acknowledging each event as its own story. Be what may, here is what was perceived as the story line. Holden Caufield was telling his story (to the readers, or to some peop...

Didn Acute T Black And White
1,579 wordsI agree that Arthur Miller engaged the audience to a large extent, and he also manages to get across a historical story at the same time and prove a point. I believe that through extensive character detail he has made it possible for us to understand exactly how the different characters are feeling, and why they behave the way they do. Miller also plays on our emotions by amplifying our own faults through the characters, as in the case of Abigail using the whole situation to her advantage, and b...

Romeo And Juliet Modern Times
377 wordsRomeo and Juliet In my opinion, the modern version of Romeo and Juliet directed by Baz Luhrmann can in no way be compared to the classic version. Although the directors intentions were visible, the film itself was not what I would consider a good movie. The directors intentions seemed to try to take the original Romeo and Juliet and place them in modern times. Guns were used instead of swords and cars were used as transportation. The language however was not changed to modern times which more of...
