I think the ending of the book "Nothing But The Truth" was sad for the Philip because he cry and said that I don’t even know the words of the National Anthem. Philips had to leave the Harrison High School and attend the Washington Academy, which is private school. He has to leave the Harrison because of his behavior to Miss Narwin. I think he regret at last what he did with Miss Narwin because all of his friends tell him that he was wrong. All Harrison High School students support to Miss Narwin, Philip don’t have any support from his school friends and students so he was embarrassed and tell his parents that he don’t want to go school so his parents change his school.
It was fair that Philip leave the Harrison High School because he disrespect

  • The Film Girl, Interrupted: Portrayal of Truth in Hollywood Films

    1679 Words  | 4 Pages

    Most people are likely to relate Hollywood with money. If a person lives in the Hollywood area, people assume she or he is probably rich. If she or he is a Hollywood movie star, the person probably makes a lot of money. Therefore, to follow that line of thought, when Hollywood producers make a movie, they make it just for money. And some filmmakers do seem to make films only for the money the movies will earn. The action movie "Die Hard", the fantasy movie "Star Wars", and the adventure movie "Jurassic Park" are examples of exciting movies that were made just for the money by satisfying the audiences' appetite for escapism.

  • Lesson Before Dying

    1029 Words  | 3 Pages

    When I first finish reading the novel, the very end was most significant. “I went up to the desk and turned to face them. I was crying.”(p.256). These last words are appropriate because they convey exactly how I felt as I finish the book, and how I think that Grant should feel. Throughout the novel I saw Grant as hard and unfeeling. He only went to see Jefferson out of respect for his aunt. Then at the end the reader saw him change to a person who was compassionate about Jefferson. This showed promise and hope for the future of Grant as a caring human being who just might learn to appreciate what he has been given.

  • The Awakening

    Books, unlike movies, have been around since the beginning of time. For the most part, they are more meaningful than the movies that are made from these books. This is due to the fact that an author is able to convey his/her message clearer and include things in the book that cannot be exhibited in a movie. For this reason, the reader of the book is much more effected than the viewer of the film. In the novella, The Awakening, by Kate Chopin, there is much more evidence of symbolism as well as deeper meaning than in the movie version of the book, Grand Isle. Chopin conveys her symbolic messages through the main character’s newly acquired ability to swim, through the birds, through sleep, and through images of the moon.

  • The End Of Solitude Analysis

    In William Deresiewicz’s essay, “The End of Solitude,” he describes how technology has made it impossible to be alone.

He was reluctant to even touch the rope used to murder David when he sees it hanging out of the chest. If Rupert’s speech about murder was truly as convincing as Brandon claims it was, shouldn’t it have had a similar effect on Phillip? Shouldn’t Phillip also be proud of the murder, rather than remorseful and scared of being

  • The Awakening

    711 Words  | 2 Pages

    The society of Grand Isle places many expectations on its women to belong to men and be subordinate to their children. Edna Pontellier's society, therefore, abounds with "mother-women," who "idolized their children, worshipped their husbands, and esteemed it to a holy privilege to efface themselves as individuals" (689). The characters of Adele Ratignolle and Mademoiselle Reisz represent what society views as the suitable and unsuitable women figures. Mademoiselle Ratignolle is the ideal Grand Isle woman, a home-loving mother and a good wife. Mademoiselle Reisz is the old, unmarried, childless, musician who devoted her life to music instead of a man. Edna switches between the two identities until she awakens to the fact that she needs to be an individual, but encounters resistance from society. This begins the process of her awakening.

    The next unclear situation is when the Governess learns of Miles’ expulsion. This is one of the main mysteries within this story. The question, “What does it mean? The child’s dismissed his school,” is the only question that the reader has throughout the conversation between the Governess and Mrs. Grose (165). Even though their conversation does inform the reader that the school has “absolutely decline[d]” Miles, it doesn’t clarify what exactly he has done to be expelled (165). The Governess comments, “That he’s an injury to the others” and “to corrupt” are her own opinions as to why Miles was expelled (165, 166). Nevertheless, her comment does not help the reader in any way because the remark in and of itself is unclear. Her first comment suggests that Miles might be causing physical harm to other students but her second ...
