thI found this movie to be disturbing to watch at some points‚ but it was mainly sad most of the time. It was one the most powerful movies I have ever seen! In my opinion‚ I find it horrific for the parents of these widows to even accept the fact of basically giving up their young daughters to men much older than them. I also feel that it was a very cruel lifestyle these widows had lived. Just because their husband had passed away doesn’t mean they have to live in such misery for the rest of their

in the 70 ’s. The film The Zodaic‚ portrayed just how unknown he was to everyone that has touched the case. This is why the film is by far one of my favorite suspense movies of all time. The Zodiac was directed by David Fincher (Zodiac the movie‚ 2007) and is based on Robert Graysmith ’s non-fiction book. David Fincher had directed many great films including Se7en‚ Fight Club‚ The Social Network and The Girl With A Dragon Tattoo. All of those films in my opinion are cult classics. Without

Since I am not a fan of viewing blood‚ and the violent actions that causes it; I decided to watch a movie in which the violence is less grotesque. The movie that I chose to watch was "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." I chose this movie because I have recently read that the children’s book series Harry Potter has been rated amongst the most violent books meant for young readers. If you look at "Harry Potter" through a uses and gratifications perspective‚ children would most likely watch

The movie “Moonlight” was very interesting to me. It covers bullying‚ abuse‚ finding yourself‚ peer pressure‚ etc. things like this happen every day people just don’t pay attention to it or want to believe what it really is. I think the main purpose of the film was to help people come to their senses and rethink about the decisions they make and also to realize where they come from and how it affects how they are today. The major theme of this movie was to not judge a book by its cover without
