King Of England Mel Gibson

The movie I chose for my sociological movie review
was Braveheart. Staring in this movie was Mel
Gibson (William Wallace), Patrick McGoohan (King
Edward Longshanks), Catherine McCormack (Murron)
Sophie Marceau (Princess Isabella) and many more.
I chose this movie because it is, hands down, the
best movie of all time. It had a lot of good war,
love and inspirational scenes to occupy any mind
for the full three hours. Braveheart relates to
sociology because it talks of social class, right

present in the novel, Beloved by Toni Morrison.
Many forms of healing take place, with many

pivotal characters correlated with a common theme
or a controlling idea. His play Othello, written
in approximately 1604 displays this style with the

Owen Describes Blue Light
457 words
War is and always will be a horrible place to be
in or at. We can learn this from the two war
pieces of the film Platoon and the poetry of
Wilfred Owen. The main theme in Platoon is of the
loss of innocence caused by the war. Owens poetry
is somewhat different. He displays and conveys the
images of the harsh living conditions on the
battlefields of France. The settings in both
pieces display similarity and get straight to the
point. Platoon was full of mud, slime and
humidity, whilst Owens poetr...
