Scene Analysis of Scene Seven of A Streetcar Named Desire As a connection to Stanley’s questioning Blanche about her affair in the “Hotel Flamingo” in Scene Five, Scene Seven starts with his revelation of Blanche’s past life in Laurel. Having “thoroughly checked on [the] stories” (187) about what Blanche has done there, Stanley is confident to nail the “pack of lies” (186) that are used so skilfully to deceive Stella and Mitch – she has never been kissed by a fellow and she quits her job because of her poor nerves. The competition between the two extreme, dominating powers of Blanche and Stanley is one of the main concerns in the development of the play. In Scene Seven, Tennessee Williams, the playwright of the play, delicately renders the shift of dominating power from Blanche to Stanley through the Stella’s response about the “stories”. At first, Stella reacts strongly to the stories about Blanche’s past life, stating them as “contemptible lies” (187); however, her strong defence of Blanche is gradually defeated by Stanley’s powerful statements and reliable evi...

Perspective allows people to see another person’s point of view. In the essay “The Cabdriver’s Daughter” by Waheeda Samady, she addresses her perception versus society’s opinion of her father. In her eyes, her father is a person capable of displaying kindness and expressing his profound knowledge while for some Americans, he is their preconceived notion of what a terrorist might look like. She challenges people to look past his scars and the color of skin, and “look at what the bombs did not destroy” (19). To her, he is the man that has lived through the Soviet-Afghan War, persevered through poverty, and denied these experiences the power of changing him into a cantankerous person. Samady feels prideful of her father’s grit through his past experiences yet feels sorrowful thinking about the life he could have lived if the war had never happened.

In 1954 a huge milestone in the field of racial equality was passed through the landmark court case, Brown v. Board of Education. This case set binding precedent for the integration of schools, stating that “separate but equal is never really equal” (Mcbride).There was strong opposition to the mandate, but, only seventeen years later, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg busing program was initiated (North Carolina History Project). The program took mostly black, underprivileged students and gave them fairer educational opportunities in white schools that had adequate funding and materials to teach. Although busing did an adequate job of creating equal opportunity, before the program had even really begun, it abruptly ended less than thirty years later. How can thirty years be considered enough time to even an educational playing field where prior to 1954, a cycle of oppression told black people being taught that their situation was acceptable? Although busing comes with a price tag of high social costs and can leave struggling schools behind, its effectiveness and overall equality it provides outweigh the negative.
For this assignment we were asked to review a movie. I choose to analyze the movie Fried Green Tomatoes from 1991. This movie has many lessons hidden inside, but also has a story of a story. It starts off with a woman named Evelyn Couch going to visit her husband’s bitter aunt, and turns into the daily visits to another member of that house. This woman’s name is Ninny Threadgood, and she always has wonderful stories to tell Evelyn. At first, she seems unsure of this elderly woman’s presence, but opens up quickly. These two ladies have a connection, and Evelynn’s prospective of life soon changes. Ninny tells her stories all along, but in the end it reveals that Ninny was really talking about her life in the past. Evelyn was going through a rough patch in her life, and visiting this woman was all she needed to make some changes. She changed her diet, knocked out a wall in the house, stood up for herself, and changed her
The protagonist of the film is Josie Geller, a career driven woman who has never had her first kiss. Her current job as a copy editor at the newspaper, the Chicago Sun-Times does not satisfy her as she aspires to to be a journalist. Unexpectedly, she is given an undercover job at a high school to help parents be more aware of what their children do at school. Josie's first day on the job immediately reflects what she was like in her first experience at high school - a nerd and socially awkward. During the film there is a subplot about her brother, Rob, who is the polar opposite of Josie, popular and everything she wanted to be in high school. His dream was to become a professional baseball player but when that failed he gave up and took a job at the tiki post. Therefore, this film meets audience expectations as these are typical characters of a romantic comedy.
The film named “Crash” is a story taken place in Los Angeles, California. The story in a movie was written by Paul haggis. This movie was released on May 6, 2005. While viewing this movie, most people notice occurrence of the racial issues. Crash movie also holds gender stereotypes, and not only strong racial stereotypes. Gender stereotypes play a noticeable role in the film due to the fact that they are not mentioned or resolved as the racial matters are. Movie’s ending part holds hope for a world which accepts all forms of race, but the plot does not talks about gender, it does not bring hope for a gender which is accepted by world. Several stories take place in the movie crash during the period in Los Angeles. The women in this film share similar characteristics with each other although they are of different class and race. Most of the men also have similar characteristics, but in a masculine and controlling way compared to the women. All the characters in the movie are very narrow-minded and self-justifying. The difference in the movie is that men are macho and self-justifying of their masculine power while the women are self-justifying of their possessions and loved ones.
The pursuit of true happiness among individuals does not only depend on material things. True happiness also requires people to whom you are pleased to be with. Humans tend to take a shortcut to acquire what makes them happy. However, resorting to unethical actions just to achieve one’s desires may only give a short term delight and a long term dilemma. “The Lady with the Lapdog” by Anton Chekhov, shows that loneliness can influence immoral actions in order to experience one’s contentment in life. Committing adulterous acts to satisfy one’s loneliness can alter one’s own moral thinking, and how one deals with their society.
The theme of the film is comedy. The general message was that it does not matter if your pretty or ugly looking. It matters what’s in the inside not the outside.

I’ve seen a lot of films, and with a lot of different genres. But I don’t think that romantic films are pretty good. They are too boring. The good films are action or comedy films, but the best films are action and com-edy films mixed together. That’s why I’ve chosen the film Taxi 2. It’s a French produced film, with a lot of action and comedy. It’s a pretty new film, and I saw it in the cinema last month. I’ve looked very much forward to see that film, because Taxi was very good too. It took only 5 weeks to get 10 mil-lion Frenchmen into the cinema. Just for watching Taxi 2.
