Julianne Campbell ENG 4U (Hachey) October 1st 2010 Alfred Hitchcock’s schizoid masterpiece Psycho cleverly portrays the theme of personality switching through characterization‚ setting and cinematography.

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is a beautifully written‚ but yet somewhat sad poem by poet T. S. Eliot. It tells the inner thoughts of a lonely man who is seeking love of a woman‚ but his own fear of rejection causes him to stray from following through with the action.

For someone who is in love‚ wants to find love‚ or wants to be in love they have to be courageous and willing to take whatever
