The Auteur Theory is defined by a director who is the main force for a film. A main creative force is usually someone who wrote, directed, and maybe even edited their own film. Although in MMP’s it’s extremely rare for a director to edit their own movies, it’s not unheard of in the indie market. It is debatable whether if directors who are the main creative forces in their film make it any better, because sometimes they fail. A great example of an auteur theory director is George Lucas, and he has made both incredibly successful and amazingly awful films.…
It would be something to do to distract myself from. All of my nerves are standing on edge. It’s almost like I should be controlling the electricity in the air instead of metal. But that’s impossible anyway. No one has that ability.…
I would love to discover a cure for a disease that no one else has been able to do yet. To me if you could do that then you are a real life superhero. I am what I…
At a younger age, I would say I believed that I can only trust myself and my mother, this is because as a little kid my mom would always tell me that there are bad people in the world and that giving them any information about anything can be very harmful. But as I grew up and realized what was actually happening in my country I knew there were millions of others that were suffering against the “bad people” and we could only do something about it if the whole community came together to help. It was at that time when I was about 25, when I started to put some effort into trying to establish more just conditions within my country especially after the implication of extremely high food prices. This is when I started my first strike involving my…
Army Story Believe it or not, before I joined the Army I didn’t want anything to do with pain, death or fear, I was scared of the world and I wanted to protect myself. So how was I going to do that you ask? I decided that I was going to be a nun. I grew up in Lomita, California with my mom, dad and four sisters, and with all those girls there was bound to be some trouble.…
The Shot Felt Around The World BEEP BEEP BEEP! My alarm clock stroke 7 A.M. I hit the snooze button just like I always do. UGGGHHHH I screech as I crawl out of bed. I walk to the living room and turn on the news. I walked to the kitchen to brew my daily coffee.…
As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View.…
For my project, I will be doing the movie series Star Wars. This movie is one of the best figures in the science fiction world. This is because it is one of the most well known movies and has plenty of advances in technology, hyper space travel, and life on different planets. The ships they have in the movie have the ability to travel very far distances in space at the speed of light, something that we do not have figured out yet today. There are many different planets that have sustained life in the Star Wars universe, including different species.…
Throughout history, many famous films contain philosophical themes that have been completely overlooked by thousands of viewers.

The film star wars episode IV and Paul Kelly’s from St. Kilda to kings cross are both perfect examples of imaginative, inner and physical journeys. A journey can involve many many different experiences for individuals which include emotional and physical changes. A imaginative journey takes us into unreal existence or different worlds. An emotional journey can be self exploration with the ultimate goal or consequence of knowing ones self better and physical journey can involve obstacles and movement to new places. Both texts should definitely be continued to be studied in the unit of journeys for the following years.…
I turned around to look at Luke, who looked just as frustrated as I did. I walked over to Luke’s desk and pulled out a chair to sit opposite from him. “Okay look, neither one of us want to be partners so let’s just grit our teeth and finish this and quickly as possible, okay?” “You don’t hear me complaining” Luke huffed.…
Imagine Darkness. Heavy breathing. It’s my own breaths. I’m running frantically. All I see is darkness and I’m sprinting for my life, but from what?…
The concepts we use shape the conclusions we reach because the concepts we use are the routes we take to where we get. The route an individual takes will ultimately and completely determine the conclusion that person reaches. The routes we take and the conclusions we reach are one hundred percent dependant on each other, taking one route of thought will get you to a completely different mental conclusion than another. This led me to an important discovery of self-knowledge.…
