Scriptwriters' Patronising Depiction 'charmingly' Primitive Stupid Sycophantic Village
1,095 wordsWhoever had the crazy idea of dyeing Miss Tierney's hair blonde? Had the world gone mad? Whatever the reason, playing the part of an Italian village girl with platinum blonde hair can have done little to further Gene's career, especially since she does not even attempt an Italian accent, and limits herself to mechanically following a dreadful script which does not allow her to develop into any kind of believable character at all. This is a tasteless film in more ways than one: the scriptwriters'...

Lack Of Insight Cordelia Is The Only Daughter

The Degeneration Of Order In Lord Flies
1,479 words.".. Lord of the Flies is not, to say the least, a simple adventure story of boys on a desert island" (Epstein 204). The elements of Lord of the Flies -- a tropical island, a group of schoolboys without adult supervision, a herd of wild pigs -- may seem to be the elements of a perfect Utopian fantasy. Instead, they are the elements of a nightmare, a Utopia that quickly disintegrates into, first, chaos and then a dictatorship based on fear and ritualized brutality. However, the novel is also not ...
