movie I chose to critique is Tim Burton’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas”. The story is an animated musical that puts in a world where Halloween is always celebrated but also gives you a brighter side of the joy in the Christmas holiday. Although the movie is not directed by Tim Burton‚ Henry Selick brings an animated holiday musical to the big screen. Unlike other holiday movies like Rudolph the Red nose reindeer and Frosty the Snowman. The Nightmare before Christmas has a wide variety of misfit

The original purpose of Christmas‚ celebrating

I think that there are a lot of things together that make a good speech. I think that the base of a good speech starts with using all ethos pathos and logos‚ i think that a good speech leads with one of these but still uses the others almost as much.

Let me begin with a caveat. My argument is based on the evidence of fiction‚ on a discussion Tim Winton’s most recent novel‚ Breath. Social scientists may suspect this kind of evidence and see ‘fact’ as more trustworthy than ‘fiction’.
