.... Polonius speaks to his son with advice that sounds sincere but in reality it is rehearsed, hollow and without feeling. Polonius gives his advice only to appear to be the loving caring father. The reality is he only speaks to appear sincere as a politician, to look good rather then actually be good: "And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. Farewell; my blessing season this in thee!" Act 1 Polonius gives his son Laertes his blessing to go away, he sends a spy to follow him and keep an eye on hi .....

.... costumed and photographed at the Twelve Oak’s ball and barbecue. Its magnificence suggests an idyllic culture with warming and abundant security. The major characters were one by one introduced with immeasurable boldness that draws the viewer to them. I was immediately attracted to the lighthearted and beautiful Scarlett when I first saw her. War was then introduced, and the South is looking toward the dreadfulness of defeat. What I like about this movie is that it does not show the war battles in great details, although war is the central event. In a scene where the casualty lists are given, we can see the horrible .....

.... competition to gain her father's inheritance by engaging in false flattery. Instead of trying to out due her sisters, she merely describes her love in relation to their filial bond. Although her father views this as a degrading insult and banishes her, it is shown that through her filial bond, she loves her father with more depth and sincerity than her eager, self absorbed sisters. Cordelia emerges amid the moral depravity and social decay as one who is honest and true to her beliefs. In banishing his daughter Cordelia from the kingdom and taking away her inheritance, King Lear is destroying the natural order of society. Sh .....

.... witchery and swirling accusations, John Proctor was easily indicted of being a messenger for the devil by the testimony of his disillusioned servant Mary Warren, who in the past committed perjury. The court who heard the testimony easily accepts it because she is a church going person, while John Proctor slightly deviates from the norm. This transfer of blame is also noticeable when the truth is first discovered about what the girls were doing in the woods. The girls were not blamed. The blame was put on Tituba, the “black” slave who was said to have “ charmed” the girls. Abigail swears that “she [Tituba] made me do it� .....

.... at "Utah Beach" Normandy, and "Daniel Ryan" in New Guinea. Only one son survives......Private James Ryan (Matt Damon). The decision is made to find him and send him home. However Private Ryan is lost somewhere behind enemy lines and the army hierarchy aren't even sure whether he's still alive... With the massive invasion of Normandy as a backdrop eight men are sent to find Ryan, led by Captain John Miller (Tom Hanks). It is a mission where the lives of eight men are put in peril for the sake of saving one. Is it worth it? "This is the most fucked up mission I've ever heard of" exclaims one soldier in an early .....

.... emerges in her visions of blood remaining on her hands, "The Thane of Fife had a wife. Where is she now? What, will these hands ne'er be clean? No more o' that, my lord, no more o' that. You mar all with this starting." (V, I, 44-47) Another less obvious place where Lady Macbeth uses others to shield her guilt is when Banquo is murdered. Both MacBeth and Lady MacBeth discuss their fear of Banquo knowing too much, and Lady MacBeth resolves to do nothing and leaves the chore up to her husband. After finding out about it, Lady MacBeth tells herself it wasn't her fault, but deep inside she knows it is just as much her as .....

.... then reveal what he did to King Hamlet. The play within the play is useful because it allows Hamlet to verify the validity of the ghost. Usually plays are intended for entertainment purposes. The play is not real and the actors are playing a role. In reality Hamlet makes it so that it is similar to what really happened to his father. Hamlet even goes as far as to instruct the actors appropriately. He will prove that the ghost is truthful by the reaction on Claudius' face. The play appears to be harmless but it has a close parallel to what really happened to the late King Hamlet. Rosencrantz and Guildernstern, who are the k .....

.... did not deal with the Cold War politics that Sagan's book dealt with mainly because of the release date of this movie. The movie was made well after the end of the Cold War and the efforts to build a space pod for space travel is depicted as being an international effort. The feasibility of the events in Contact is not too far from reality. The movie makes the assumption that the alien civilization that contacted us is far more advanced than humans. If contact was made today it could only be achieved with the assistance of a civilization far more advanced than our human race. Radio and television signals have been t .....

.... is against the law. Hamlet goes on to express how much he hates the world and finds it useless. Lines 136-141-“ O God, God, How stale, flat and unprofitable seem to me all the uses of this world! Fie on ’t, ah fie! ’Tis an unweeded garden That grows to seed Things rank and gross in nature possess it merely.” He believes there to be so many things going on in the world around him, yet he sees nothing good coming from it. In lines 141-146 Hamlet refers to his mother’s lack of grief. He is not proud of the fact that his mother remarried so soon after his father’s death. Hamlet points out that it hasn’t even bee .....

.... size of the moon in relation to the rock. Although it is actually small in the Earth's sky, the moon always has the influence of being great, and anything that dwarfs it can become ominous. The black and white of the photograph also assists in giving the viewer the impression that Half Dome is enormous. The darkness of the sky draws the eye to it because among the vast blackness the moon is oddly white and somewhat blurred in comparison to the detail of the rest of the photograph. A blurred object among a large area of clarity gives the impression of depth. The shadows created by Half Dome also further the feeling of Half Domes do .....
