The Great Depression Era was the longest depression in history from 1929 to 1932. This was a time of economic failure, unemployment, cuts in production, and less spending. The movie that I watched, “Annie” is about an orphan that as volunteered to spend Christmas with one of the wealthiest man in America at the time of the 1930s’ and finally she gets adopt. So this movie talks about the view points from the wealthy community, also the poor community, and how the Great Depression affected both the poor and rich communities.…
Doesn’t everyone just hate snoring? You have to agree with me that when you are awake at night and you are with some one that snores it is the most irritating thing in the world as half the time it is impossible to get back to sleep. Without a doubt if I succeed today snoring is most definitely going into room 101. The one and only major natural thing that really could make you sleep hell has to be stupendous, snotty snoring. When you awake the next day you are like a drowned rat as your body has not recovered at all from last night and therefore will completely ruin the day ahead. Why when we evolved were we given the power to snore? Half the time you want to get the person who is snoring and shake his body to bits just like a rattle. Or even cover his face in cold water to let the person feel what it is like not to be able to sleep. You know that snoring has just got to go in room 101 to save us from dreadful, irritating snoring!…
The United States was in the middle of a crisis, the Great Depression, when Charlie Chaplin produced the Modern Times. Charlie Chaplin’s film illustrates a few difficulties that workers experienced when seeking for a job. During that time, at least fifteen million people were suffering from unemployment and poverty, as well as hunger. People were doing almost everything to get back up on their feet just to feed themselves and their families. One example would be when people would purposely steal food and being thrown to the jail just to get a roof above their heads and of course, food. Life during The Great Depression was unbelievably tough, most especially to the people and families who didn’t belong to the upper class. Charlie Chaplin believes…

Being told that we were going to watch a 1936 Charlie Chaplin movie made me excited. I have never seen any of his films so I did not know what to expect. Seeing the movie title as “Modern Times”, however, made me think that the film is about the lives of the people during the Great Depression. As it turned out, I was correct. But aside from showing the concerns and difficulties of those who lived during a severe economic depression, the film also shows how modernization in society affects the people. What is more interesting, though, is how even more than half a century later, Chaplin’s film still mirrors the influence of modernization on the lives of many people and the world they live in.…
The movie ‘Modern Times’ (1936), directed by and staring Charlie Chaplin, was set during the Great Depression and industrial revolution period, where machines and technology were starting to dominate humanity, which led to severe unemployment and poverty.

For the worst crimes, life without parole is better, for many reasons. I’m against the death penalty but not because of sympathy for criminals. It doesn’t prevent or reduce crime, costs a whole lot more than life in prison, and, worst of all, risks executions of innocent people.…
