The Walkabout
... stood out to me. To me it showed how small we are in the real world. This was even more resounding when they were lost in the desert. The characters seemed so tiny in the outback of Australia.
I felt that the music attributed to the movie greatly. The film at times was almost easier to understand with the music. I especially thought that when the Aborigine did his ritual dancing that the music was really neat.
Some things in the film were just unexplainable. I did not understand why the father in the beginning did anything that he did. Having a picnic in the desert, shooting at the kids, committing ...

MAD Magazine: Its Success
... MAD's success.
The first factor that has made Mad's survival over the years possible is
it's foundations. Its creation was during the sixties, when counter culture was
at its peak, a time when rebelling against "the system" and not "selling out"
were the ideals of popular culture. The fact that the magazine held within its
covers no advertisements catered to the ideal of not selling out, which drew a
faithful audience.
The second factor is tradition. As is true with most MAD readers of my
generation, My first encounter with the magazine was when I was a kid, going
through some old things of my father's in the ...

Difference Between Plutarch's And Shakespeare's Caesar
... to a warning implying that he was
given fair warning and his death was partially due to his over confidence. On
the other hand Plutarch gives him a more sensitive reaction to the dream in
saying, "Caesar himself, it seems was affected and by no means easy in his
mind."
Moreover, Plutarch's writings show the long string of coincidences
almost as Fate were deeming it necessary for him to die, and that he had no
control over it. "...the scene of the final struggle and of the assassination
made it perfectly clear that some heavenly power was involved...directing that
it" (the assassination) "should take place ju ...

Nature’s Significance In King Lear
... of the storm in King Lear.
The idea of nature is first introduced by Cordelia in the very beginning of the play. When Lear asks Cordelia to tell him how much she loves him, Cordelia responds by saying that she loves him “according to my bond.” (1.1.102) Cordelia means that her love for her father is based upon the law of nature and involves the clearest recognition of her filial obligations. It is this very law which Lear himself depends on when he expects to be revered and obeyed both as a king and as a father by all his daughters. Shakespeare demonstrate this idea when he points out that at a later point in the ...

Antigone: Who Is The Tragic Hero?
... that Antigone was meant to be the
true tragic hero argue against others who believe that Creon deserves that honor.
They say that the Gods were against Creon, and that he did not truly love his
country. "His patriotism is to narrow and negative and his conception of justice
is too exclusive... to be dignified by the name of love for the state" (Hathorn
59). These arguments, and many others, make many people believe the Antigone is
the rightful protagonist.
Many critics argue that Creon is the tragic hero of Antigone. They say
that his noble quality is his caring for Antigone and Ismene when thier father
was pers ...

Television Regulation: Government Vs. Parents
... too much television and
exposure to excessive violence, children and grownups alike develop “Mean
World Syndrome” where people are afraid to go out. So they stay in the
house and watch more television. Television has a very powerful effect -
just look at the power of commercials.
While it is a positive step that the government is trying to
regulate television programming, it is still the parents' job to monitor
what children watch. With the wide range of programming available, if a
child watches television without any supervision, it is very likely that
he/she will view a program that is unsuitable for t ...

Othello: Reputation And Honesty
... to believe that Desdemona was cheating on him. Othello would have probably killed him if he didn’t have the reputation of being an honest man. Iago knew that an important man like Othello couldn’t ignore the possibility that his wife was cheating on him. Nobody suspects that Iago is a deceitful man and would plot and plan to destroy Othello, Cassio and Desdemona in such a cunning way. Iago used his reputation, and the insecurities of Othello being a Moor, to allow him to manipulate Othello. Othello had a reputation of being a military man, and a courageous leader. “Valiant Othello, We must straight employ you.. ...

Advertising Strategy
... adds. These two people
will have no other purpose except to stand by the copy machine and print
off adds. I recommend that the ads should be no fewer than 300. I agree
this will take some time, but in the long run, it will save us time in the
places where we need it the most. Tuesday, is the first day of the week
where we will go out and distribute 200 of the ads to places such as Best
buy and Gateway. I site these places first because of the fact that the
average house hold mother does all of her shopping earlier in the week as
opposed to later in the week. The target audience I plan to promote to

Hamlet: The Theme Of Having A Clear Conscience
... result of the self-evaluation of the actions that have
taken place, and the ensuing actions that he takes are a clear result of this
self-evaluation. So, in essence, the actions cause him to think of his
conscience and then act upon these feelings. Hamlet's several soliloquies are a
testament to this method. His first soliloquy, following a conversation with
his recently wed mother and uncle reflect the uneasiness he feels. He feels
betrayed. "O, most wicked speed, to post, with such dexterity to incestuous
sheets. . . but break my heart, for I must hold my tounge." (I, ii, 156-159).
Hamlet's conscience tells h ...

... if he could live on his own successfully. This disappoints both
Happy and Willy. But this is not the only problem Biff has.
Biff also depends on Willy to get him through life. Willy's low morals
cause Biff to think it's all right to concentrate on football when he was in
high school. Biff does not think he has to work in school. When he flunks math,
he does not know what to do and once again turns to Willy. Now Biff cannot go
to college and since he has been concentrating on football, he has little or no
skills at anything else. He depends on Willy's support to help him. But since
Willy's expectations of B ...
