add campy to its genre list. This movie address several different social issues while making the audience laugh and sing along with it. The main social issue at hand in this movie is that one of racism. This movie also touches on gender roles with John Travolta playing a woman, as well as being judged by personal appearances. The main character, Tracy Turnblad is at the center of all these issues. It’s 1962 and an overweight teenager, Tracy Turnblad and her best friend, Penny Pingleton are obsessed

When my mom asked if I wanted to see this year’s Lakeside musical, I honestly was a bit unwilling. It’s not that I didn’t want to support my two or three friends up on stage and in the crew; I just don’t have a very good track record with high school performances. I’m a critic: I have always been very critical of myself, and very critical of others. I unwittingly judge the actors onstage, and end up feeling guilty because I probably could have done no better. On top of this warped superiority/inferiority
Rocky Horror Picture Show (Directed by Jim Sharman) who also directed the film such films as Shock Treatment (1981.) The second film i shall be analysing is, Pink Flamingos (Directed by John Waters) who is also responsible for films such as female troubles (1974) and Cry-baby (1990.) It is easy to see why John Waters ‘Pink Flamingos’ would be considered oppositional and in bad taste. With its crude and sickening sex scenes, full frontal nudity, obsession with bodily fluids and scenes depicting bestiality

Welcome to the 60’s, a time of sky-high hairdos, colorful clothing and jivin’ music. But beyond all the glitz and glamour of the era, segregation and discrimination is ever present in the city of Baltimore, until one big girl with even bigger ideas challenges the norm. In an infectious production of “Hairspray,” Thomas S. Wootton High School had the audience tapping their toes and moving to the beat all evening. Based on the 1988 non-musical film of the same name, Hairspray was written by Marc Shaiman
There are different ideas and themes covered in musical performances in this modern society, for example war and love in Miss Saigon, feminism in Mamma Mia! and racial issues in Porgy and Bess. In the musical film Hairspray, there are more interesting ideas in the plot so I would like to discuss the musical further in this piece of work. Hairspray was an American musical film in 2007, it was a adaptation from a musical and comedy in 2002 and 1988 respectively. There were several changes in the 2007
Coming into this course I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It was simply the description of Dr. Bernard’s syllabus that held me interested and wanting to learn more. I was never a big movie follower, so I thought it would be interesting to see some of the films that do hold enormous fan based festivals and conventions. Throughout the past several weeks I have not only experience many films that I have not seen before, but I also gained the knowledge of the meaning behind what a cult film

Water is not as simple as people think it is. Water is formed by the bonding of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. This bond that is being referred to is termed as a polar covalent bond. Polar means having a pair of equal and opposite charges. In this case, that is exactly what is happening. The oxygen atoms are negatively charged, whereas, the hydrogen atoms are positively charged. Water is formed when one atom of oxygen joins with two atoms of hydrogen which causes the ends of water molecules

Brief overview: John is in first grade, age six. The blue ice exploration took place within an empty classroom at the end of the day. The environment was familiar to both of us, quiet and there was plenty of room for us to have the bucket on the table. I had the other materials on a different table. I was really excited to try this experiment with John after seeing our guest Dr. Susan Rauchwerk conduct the same experiment. I had a list of “nuggets” I had written down prior to John joining me that
L∙mol^(-1)∙cm^(-1). Variations of concentration over time were graphed to figure out dissociation of ferroin being first-order reaction and sulfuric acid being zero-order. Thus, under the rate law, the solution’s rate was found to be k〖[Ferroin]〗^1 〖[Sulfuric acid]〗^0, where rate constant k = 9.12x〖10〗^(-4) s^(-1). Half-life was 759.87 sec and Ea (activation energy) was 56.82 KJ. INTRODUCTION Chemical kinetics, also
the church. (De Ferrari 63) A pertinent symbol of Baptism would be Holy Water, which symbolizes what a priest uses to baptize someone. (De Ferrari 65) Baptism is when somebody officially becomes a part of the Catholic Church. (De Ferrari 64) One reason it is important would be because Jesus said, “Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit, he can’t enter the kingdom of God.” (New Revised Standard Edition, John 3:5) Another reason this is important is because it is the door of spiritual
years ago they vanished. The most powerful creatures ever to live on earth had become extinct. Dinosaurs were not the only victims of this "mass extinction." There were many other species that were killed off. During what is known as the K-T extinction (K stands for Cretaceous, T stands for Tertiary), many species and families became extinct. These include all marine reptiles such as plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, ichthyosaurs, and ammonites, swimming and flying reptiles, sea crocodiles, and foraminifera
Dermatology, it is “an anaerobic, gram-positive, spore-forming rod commonly found on plants, in soil, water and the intestinal tracts of animals.” H. Bradford Hawley M.D., the editor of Magill’s Medical Guide, states that these bacteria are vastly immune to high temperatures and can persevere through numerous methods used to eradicate it and to get rid of toxins for secure consumption of food and water. Since the bacteria can be found in such a diverse variety of commodities, which all can be ingested
Based off slideshow number 3, Theories of Domestic Violence, there are other theories as to why domestic violence occurs including biological, psychological, substance use, social control theory and the learning theory along with many others (Wallace, K. 2018). The victims stories included acts of being held to the ground, broken hands,
In Schoch’s analysis of the Sphinx and its enclosure, he found multiple types of weathering from water, wind, flaking and disintegration. He believed the rounded edges that appear on the Sphinx and the enclosure are a “classic textbook example of what happens to limestone wall when you have rain beating down on it for thousands of years”. This type of erosion would require a lot of rain, and given the present climate of Egypt, it would have to have happened before the drying up of the Sahara
