Elements Of A Shakespeariean Tragedy
... social position. The tragic
hero has a destructive flaw which in turn brings about his downfall. There is
much argument over who the tragic hero is in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.
Some scholars say that the tragic hero is Julius Caesar, while others say it is
Marcus Brutus. A case can be made for both of the characters. Both Brutus and
Caesar are of high social and political status. Caesar was the dictator for
life of Rome and Brutus was an honorable Senator. Julius Caesar had two tragic
flaws. Caesar was said by Brutus to be ambitious, which led directly to his
downfall - “ But as he was ambitious, I s ...

Movie: Arsenic And Old Lace
... many people as they did.
Much to Jonathan's surprise , the aunts killed just as many men without the
plastic surgery , without the running , they just sat right there .
"Charge…" we hear as Teddy Brewster runs up the stairs.
This caracter brings out the most comedy in the picture. Teddy is the only
character in the movie that proves to be insane in my opinion. Any man who
thinks he is a dead president (TDR) has to have some problems.
The plot unfolds when Mortimer Brewster finds out about his
aunts secret after finding a present in the window seat . Mortimer panics
and runs all over trying to take care of his ...

A Midsummer Night's Dream: Humor
... to say ‘odors' instead of ‘odious' in
the sentence. Odors means "fragrant smells," while odious means "repulsive." A
simple mistake by someone that is low in the society, but totally changes the
meaning of the sentence. This humor is obvious to everybody watching that
Bottom had made a mistake. This type of humor, while obvious, sometimes doesn't
portray the meaning correctly. Inferred humor is sometimes more suited for this.
Shakespeare used something like inferred humor to get across some other
meanings that added to the play. One good example is the character of Puck.
Puck is a hyperactive child that ...

The Advantage Of Commercials
... is one of the most cost-efficient media there is. Not only is cost an
advantage of TV commercials, so are TV's impact credibility, selectivity, and

The Deception In King Lear
... exist. The same goes for her sister, Regan,
who is plotting against her father as well. She says that she feels the same
way as her sister and expresses how Goneril has named her very deed of love.
Regan adds a little twist to this and professes that she loves Lear more than
her sisters and that Goneril's affection for her father "comes too short."
(I.i.71) By uttering these words, Regan shows that her love is even less true
than that of her sister's. She goes even farther to say:
"...that I profess
Myself an enemy to all other joys
Which the most precious square of sense possesses, ...

The Shawshank Redemption
... of
Andy Dufresne and his eventual escape from Shawshank's walls.
The movie follows a formalistic style of direction under Frank Darabont.
He interweaves scenes with nice fluid shots. The shots are not jarring or rough
cut. Darabont tends to take the story at a distance allowing the characters to
establish their traits to the audience instead of pushing a barrage of angles
at the audience. The position of the camera is intricately placed in all scenes.
The movie is a perfect example of classical cinema.
The most unique part about the style of the movie is in the
cinematography by Roger Deakins. The whole story looks ...

The soliloquy appears immediately after Polonius and Claudius have devised a confrontation between Ophelia and Hamlet in order to discover the reason for his madness.

Henry V
... "by God's help … to bend(France to (his) awe or break it all to pieces." His purpose is strengthened by the arrival of the French ambassadors who bring a reply from the Dauphin to Henry's demand for "certain dukedoms (in France) in the right of his great predecessor," King Edward the third", an insolent message that he "cannot revel into dukedoms there." In place of these territories, he receives an insulting gift of tennis balls. The angry King retorts that he will turn the Dauphin's tennis balls to gun-stones. He expedites his preparations for the invasion.
In London, the hostess of the Boar's Head Tavern rep ...
