Elizabeth's prejudice shows in her actions towards Darcy too. She says, " From the very beginning, from the first moment, I may almost say, of my acquaintance with you, your manners impressing me with the fullest brief of your arrogance, your conceit, and your selfish disdain of the feelings of others, were such as to form that .....

Hamlet - Movie Critique
Number of words: 370 | Number of pages: 2.... in which special lines inserted by Hamlet Jr. were to be read. This did not have a dramatic affect on the way the plot was presented in the movie, but was just noticeable.
As far as the casting and setting is concerned, I believe that the director did an excellent job. Obviously, this coming from Hollywood kind of gives it advantages to all previous presentations. Mel Gibson was a great choice for Hamlet, because he is good actor and played his part wonderfully. The other characters were portrayed in a good way too.

9 I can again thy former light restore
10 Should I repent me. But once put out thy light,
11 Thou cunning'st pattern of excelling nature,
12 I know not where is that Promethean heat
13 That can thy former light relume: when I have plucked the

(Othello, 5.2.7-16, p. 306)
Shakespeare sets the tone of the passage with one simple introductory line, "Put out the light, and then put out the light!" The line

Les Miserables
Number of words: 504 | Number of pages: 2.... century they did not have as much rights and oppurtunities as the whites. Another example of how this theme can be related to America is how a person with a southern accent is perceived as less intelligent, which is a false misconception. The theme -how criminals are viewed by society- can be seen by how Jean Valjean is treated after he is released by prison. Although, he has served a sentence of nineteen years, he is still chased and wanted. In that period of time when a person commited theft it was viewed as a crime against the community and that person should be punished to the most extremes. That theme can be seen in mode .....
