When time features in literature and films, it often shows the relationships between the past and the future. In Beloved (1987), Toni Morrison shows how Sethe had dehumanizing experiences during her years of slavery. Even in freedom, Sethe was reminded of her past which affected her decisions and destroyed her identity. In contrast, in Eric Bress and J. Mackye Grubber’s The Butterfly Effect (2004), Evan witnessed and participated in traumatizing events in his childhood. When he discovers his ability to time travel, Evan alters his past only to find out it damaged his future. Despite bearing substantial differences, both explore how a minor action in the past will result in unforeseen and wide-ranging repercussions in the future. However, whereas…

However, after the movie started to play I realized exactly what I was supposed to be searching for; topics in which would not have been proper in the past. There are abundant examples of social issues that have been taboo in the past (some of which still would be considered frowned upon).…
