    “Is it Really a Time to Kill?” Alvanti Smith PHI: 107 Victor Reppert September 14‚ 2009 To sentence someone to death for a crime is not justice. It is state sanctioned killing. Killing the accuser does not help the victims or their families. The death penalty is not deterrence to the crime. A person should have to live with his or her actions for the rest of their life. I feel state- sanction killing is an act of revenge. If I killed someone‚ because they killed someone in my family I will

    After watching the film‚ The Great Gatsby (2013)‚ I feel like as if the movie and film correlates together well‚ especially when it comes to the characters. Each of the characters from the film were well-played actors—I felt like none of them were miscasts—and I wouldn’t change a thing about it if I was the director of the film. This film does a fantastic job with the visuals from the exciting parties Jay Gatsby threw at his mansion to the shocking emotional moment in which he was also killed by

    setting‚ and the order of events. The dialogue and order of events in‚ The Outsiders‚ is almost completely the same between the novel and the movie because in the book Sodapop Curtis says “Soda just put his hand on my shoulder. ‘Easy‚ Ponyboy. They ain’t gonna hurt you no more.’ ” and “You’re an okay kid ponyboy”.
