Camron and Kristine Cameron and Kristine are a successful couple who somewhat lets society bother their relationship. They go from being a happy couple to individually having to fight society or almost becoming casualties. Some theories that explain their plea would be entropy, systematic desensitization and precognitive. Entropy Entropy is the “natural tendency of a system to progress toward disorganization, depletion and, in essence, death.” After the incident with the police officers, Cameron was slowly breaking down, until towards the end of the movie, Cameron was about to let himself get killed. If it were not for Officer Tommy, who told the officers that he knew Cameron, he would have died. Systematic Desensitization Systematic Desensitization is “gradually expose[ing] [a] person to [the] thing he/she fears; taught incompatible response.” A triumphant scene that portrays this during the movie is when gradually Christine learns to trust the police …show more content…

Ken Kesey's award-winning novel, "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest", was adapted into a film in 1975 written and directed by New York City native Bo Goldman and Czech director Milos Forman. Towards the end of the novel and film, Chief Bromden escapes from the ward. This scene is conveyed differently in the novel and film; however, there are evident similarities between each form of media. This scene is important to the plot because it wraps up the entire storyline. In the film and novel, similarities within Chief Bromden’s escape from the ward include the way Chief escaped, how he couldn't hear anyone in the ward due to being deaf, and how McMurphy assisted Bromden with gaining his confidence to lift the panel and throw it through the window. McMurphy essentially changed Bromden to help him break out of the asylum and back into the real world.

This made Meredith mad because she believed to contribute to the relationship and Amy did not reciprocate. Meredith then stopped trying to make Amy like her because she did not receive a reward of friendship when she tried and considered trying to get along as a loss. The conflict theory goes along with how the Stone family saw Meredith as thinking she was superior to them and did not share interests or values with the family. This lead the family to not like her and caused conflict between Meredith and the Stone family. The symbolic internationalist theory pertains to how Ben came to like Meredith through experience with her and getting to know her. Ben shows he is a separate entity from his family and that through experience he could change is mind and like
Justin, a boy who was raised in a dog cage until the age of five, suffered similar neglect as those mentioned earlier. Justin was kept in a dog cage and rarely interacted with his caregiver, who lacked the attachment bond needed for later development; his only attachment came from dogs (). In regards to the four factors that help strengthen the attachment between a child and caregiver, contemporary factors played a role in this situation. Contemporary factors are influenced by the abilities of an adult needed to provide a strong and stable attachment (). Justin was left in the care of his grandmother, but when his grandmother passed away, he was left in the care of Arthur, the grandmother’s boyfriend Arthur. Arthur was an elderly man who never had children and was limited on how to raise a child. Other contemporary factors such as the confidence and self-control needing to raise a child carry over into the child’s attachment development (). Within Connor’s case, he suffered neglect from birth to 18 months (). Connor had been neglected throughout all stages of development, which in result limited his ability to form a secure attachment and be able to rely on others for support and comfort. Connor was left alone throughout the day, creating an inconsistent and unstable perspective on how

“You ruin your life by desensitizing yourself” (Sparacino, n.d.). This quote by Bianca Sparacino (n.d.) points out the gravity of the impact desensitization can have on someone. When the word “desensitization” comes up, people tend to think of an emotionally insensitive or callous human. Although this is true, desensitization involves much more than most realize. Whatever leads someone to the point of desensitization takes hold of their emotions, actions, and mind. The term “desensitization” can be defined as overstimulation to the point of indifference, a lack of empathy, and a conditioned response.
“The Help” is a white mock feel good movie, which seems to feature amnesia of racial conflicts in the South as its primary theme (Stockett, 2009). Author Natasha McLaughlin suggests that ‘The Help’ focuses upon the home and the relationship between African-American domestics and the laws of Jim Crow’s neglected ‘other half’: Jane Crow (McLaughlin, 2014). The American Civil Rights Movement mainly accommodates the public with a view concentrated upon a male dominant perspective but appreciations to Stockett and her moving interpretation of the relationship of Caucasian housewives and their African-American maids the public gets a rare white-washed version of events dealing with the civil rights movement going on within the interior of the households

The film, Of Two Minds, is based on real life accounts of individuals living with bipolar disorder. Before watching this film, I had an idea of what bipolar disorder is , but after viewing this film I was completely mistaken. Previously, I thought being bipolar was going from a “normal” mood to an angry or sad mood in a matter of seconds and could be simply fixed by taking medicine. But my previous thoughts were completely wrong and bipolar disorder is very serious and complicated. I didn’t know the severity of this disease and I think a lot of the general public is uneducated about bipolar disorder as well as mental illness. Terri Cheney describes having bipolar disorder as, “Take the best day you ever had and multiply it by a million, it 's like a flu but one hundred times worse. It 's having flu in your mind."

Why is entropy often described as the “quantitative measure of disorder” (Michaelides)? Is it really disorder? Or is it simply the way nature is intended to work? The explanation, according to most common folk remains that entropy is the measure of how much disorder exists in a specific system. This however, is not actually factual. People often equate entropy with murphy’s law. Believing that everything that can go wrong, will go wrong and that order will always become disorder over time (“Entropy: The Ultimate”). In the case of true entropy, what actually occurs is the following. In closed system, entropy will always tend to be maximized. To reverse the natural process of entropy, energy must be added to the system (“Entropy Is Not”). This

"What happened then was both unexpected and extremely unpleasant. Lieutenant Kotler grew very angry with Pavel and no one - not Bruno, not Gretel, not Mother and not even Father - stepped in to stop him doing what he did next, even though none of them could watch. Even though it made Bruno cry and Gretel grow pale." This quote is from the the book.(Boyne, 148-149).

The movie “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas” describes the Holocaust from a child’s point of view. Bruno thinks the concentration camp is a playground and a place that has a cafe.
