Summary Of The Rush Club
The book I read was called Rush. The situation in the story is that a young kid named Jake King is an adrenaline junkie in a small town called Brockton. Brockton is nestled in California's san Limos Valley.The whole town hates Jake Because of how here is always trying to do something dangerous like diving off waterfalls or rock climbing. The main conflict in the story is how Jake wants to be a part of this club called The Immortals where they do a bunch of crazy things like jumping into fires along with many other things. however a lot of his family and friends don't want to be a part of it and it's very difficult to be a part of the club also he's already disliked by a lot of the town it's even more difficult for him to get in.

I think the inciting incident of the story is when Jake's father gave him a choice to go to the fire training. After he finishes his training he goes on to the rappelling group and meets a guy named Koss that tell them about a group called The Rush club and not to join it. Vader Heat gets invited to join the Immortals by a guy named Mox That Koss told him was the person that invites people into the rush Club and if you take the Immortals jacket and then you're forced into the rush club later.The climax is when Jake goes into the rush Club in hopes of destroying it so that no one else is forced into this club and in order to get in the club he has to have his friend Salome Jump off

You need to keep doing something even if it means spending a lot of time and effort to do it. If we give up the moment something becomes difficult then we will never be able to do something that is good. I think this because Jake could’ve just left Brockton before getting rid of the club but he stayed and got rid of it. He could leave with the rest of the crew when the fire was getting close but he stayed and the town was

    Leto’s approach to playing Rayon Real in Dallas Buyers Club was Inside/Out. He used Stanislavski’s system called ‘spiritual realism’ by completely emerging himself into the character he was playing. He never broke out of character while filming even his costars said that it felt like they were working with Rayon not Jared Leto. There are some elements that may make you think that Leto used an Outside/In approach because he actually lost a lot of weight, waxed his body and changing his dialect (physical and visual stimuli) but since he was trying to be as realistic as possible it makes it an Inside/Out approach. You could also see the psychological and mental changes that happened to the real Rayon Real (dealing with her sexuality, having AIDS,…

Still movies like Unforgiven, Silverado, and Posse had black leads dying, but they died in a more heroic form. The 1993 film Posse reversed the skin color of the actors from the film The Wild Bunch. The film is basically a re-vision of the film The Wild Bunch. The film Posse is also a contemporary western settings, classic west themes, classic firearms, and ideas, but staring black actors now.

    Interweaving of character relationships is very eminent in the movie. From Molly Ringwald, who played as Claire, portraying a rich-cum-princess girl, to Anthony Michael Hall as Brian who acted as the brain, to Emilio Estevez and Ally Sheedy as, the jock and Goth basket case, respectively, and lastly to Judd Nelson as Bender - the loud, prissy, metal head punk. Other characters in the movie that are worth noting were the "sadistic principal, Paul Gleason, who taunted his students with his loud, bullying yet seemingly tired voice, and the other kids who were always willing to buckle down and dozed on their free day and time in the school library (Barsanti, 1999).…

I revisit his story to remind myself of the importance of considering the many dimensions of people in both professional and personal relationships. Above all, I have taken his mantra of sacrificing all before character to…
