Tarantinos' Characters Real Life Things
625 words
The movie on the whole was really great. It was
filled with some pretty gory scenes and extreme
violent content, Tarantinos' trademark. The way he
portrays the real life aspects of crime and
violence are unbelievable. I wonder if he
experienced some of these things himself and
that's why he has a realistic view of them. Then
again, I can't really gauge how realistic any of
these themes are because after watching this kind
of movie it makes me feel like I lead a really
sheltered lifestyle. Why do...

Established Government In Macbeth

Political change hasn't changed People question
the relevance of Macbeth, not only in respect to
the difference in time, but also as a work of
fiction depicting real life. The belief that
Shakespeare's views as expressed in Macbeth cannot
be applied to humanity today is often backed up by
the argument that the world has changed. I was
taught about women's rights and the divine right
of kings if I hadn't been I probably wouldn't have
