For the Final assignment‚ the image I chose to analyze and critique was Girl with a Kitten by Lucian Freud. My first impression of this piece was that it was pretty perplexing.

OLD BOOKS ARE DANGEROUS? It was November 29‚ 2011‚ Tuesday‚ around quarter to nine‚ I was in the Department of Languages‚ looking out of the window‚ when I saw a youth pulling a wheelbarrow.

Developing a paper about The Tin Drum film without having read the book may seem like a big mistake‚ but the huge advantage of this approach is to conceive the movie as
