To Sleep or Not to Sleep My opinion of sleep and how I actually go about it are different from each other. Generally‚ I get everything I planned for that day done before I allow myself to sleep‚ especially if there is homework involved. However‚ I fully believe people should reorganize their life‚ so they are able to get enough sleep each night. I believe this for several reasons: the consequences of sleep deprivation are serious‚ may improve vitality‚ and sleep is the time to allow the brain to

the Book Big Fish‚ and the Film For the past few weeks‚ I have analyzed the storytelling style of the book and film Big Fish. The biggest difference I noticed was that I thought that the book focused more on the telling of Edwards inane stories‚ while the film was mostly centered around character development and relationships. I also think that while the book was very euphoric and felt like a children’s bedtime story‚ the film took a

Water is a symbol that can represent life‚ freedom‚ purity‚ and cleansing. Throughout the film‚ The Big Fish‚ the water represents either life‚ purity‚ or cleansing every time that it is shown. For example‚ when Will visits Edward at his house‚ there is a pitcher of water on the nightstand. When offered water Edward drinks it because he still has a life to live. Edward drinks the water because he needs the life water gives him even though he is dying. When the water is drank by Edward‚ it adds more

Cultural Studies and "Forensic Noir" According to Thomas Doherty‚ American pop culture can’t get enough of the highly graphic and intense forensic thrillers on prime time television. This genre is known to many people as "forensic noir". The same style appears in all of the shows; someone gets killed‚ forensics play a game breaker‚ criminal gets caught‚ and then the case is closed. Doherty states‚ "Cultural-Studies Intellectuals" have been mapping the forensic noir that has led to a revitalization

The reason I chose “Marvell Noir” by Ann Lauinger is for the reason that it rhymed and also‚ because I understood what the poem was actually about‚ as it was written with literal meanings. To me‚ this poem takes place in the 1940s‚ due to Lauinger’s usage of language‚ words such as doll‚ highballs‚ rap‚ plus the title word noir. All of this causes me to think of an old 40s black and white film as well as the play Chicago. I am not an enormous fan of poetry or even a small fan‚ outside of Dr. Seuss

Italian Noir: Finding the Darkness in the Place of Contemporary Light According to Erica Jong‚ "What is the fatal charm of Italy? What do we find there that can be found nowhere else? I believe it is a certain permission to be human‚ which other places‚ other countries‚ lost long ago" (Earles 1). This humanity she speaks of is one that hides under the surface between the exteriors of beauty and power‚ reflecting the common Italian ideal‚ that while something so shallowly beautiful captivates the

The Big Sleep- The depiction of Marlowe as a modern-day knight The novel “The Big Sleep” by Raymond Chandler was published in 1939 during the heart of the Great Depression. The novel is written in a very sinister‚ dark and kind of a gangster tone and carries much of the cynicism of 1930s America. The Big Sleep is a story of intrigue‚ corruption‚ delinquency and obliquity with a rather complex plot which can be very confusing. The main character in “the Big Sleep” is the private detective Philip

Fiction: Shortcomings of a “Neo-Noir” The remarkable stylistic conventions of classical film noir have made it one of the most memorable and recognizable film genres to this day. Each film noir picture is uniquely told though it use of degrees of darkness‚ contrasting lighting‚ rain-covered city streets‚ isolated protagonist‚ and devious dames that effortlessly lure men into a cold trap of criminal deeds. Pulp Fiction‚ a film by Quentin Tarantino‚ is said to be one of film noir’s strongest roots with
