Billy Sunday For almost a quarter century Billy Sunday was a household name in the United States. Between 1902 when he first made the pages of the New York Times and 1935 when the paper covered his death and memorial service in detail, people who knew anything about current events had heard of the former major league baseball player who was preaching sin and salvation to large crowds all over America. Not everyone who knew of the famous evangelist liked him. Plenty of outspoken critics spoke

Interview with the Luddite In Andrea Lunsford's introduction she gives a brief background on both Kelly and his interviewee, Kirkpatrick Sale. From her descriptions it is very clear on how different the beliefs of these two men are from each other. Lunsford seems to be fascinated by how the interviews in Wired magazine, which she sort of reluctantly subscribes to, have all ended up in a debate or argument. And the one "which you are about to read,["Interview with the Luddite"] is no exception
give his life for the mission at hand. This shows that his teammates have the same view on a mission as he does. Kelly: Kelly is the fastest Spartan there is.

Even before Grace Kelly married a prince, she had the aura of a princess. Frank Sinatra once commented, "Grace was a princess from the moment she was born." She had remarkable elegance and sophistication that made her different from other Hollywood actresses. Some say she had an undertone of fire beneath her charm. Alfred Hitchcock, who directed her in three films, called her "a snow covered volcano". Grace was born into a family of fame and success. Her father was a wealthy bricklayer, her brother
Gene Kelly was born on August 23, 1912 in a working class neighborhood in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was a dancer, actor, director, and choreographer that brought a different approach to the dance and production world. Thus, he was one of five children, including two brothers and two sisters. While he was growing up, instead of playing baseball with the neighborhood friends he decided to take dance lessons due to his moms influence.

coincidentally, popular. In today’s society there is a shared cultural belief that in order to be popular high school students must be wealthy and beautiful. The show both challenges and reinforces this cultural belief by offering characters like Kelly Taylor, who is a beautiful, California blonde who seems to lead an ideal life. She is one of the most popular girls at West Beverly High (partly because she was able to afford a nose job). Beautiful people such as Steve Sanders--a wealthy, snobbish

there are two senses, that when absent hinders the communication process: sight and touch. Communication is more than just words. In an effort to explore this idea further, we will look at the movie “Witness”. The movie, starring Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis, takes place in New England.

When Samuel goes to the restroom during a delay in Philadelphia

Dial ‘M’ for Murder’s main plot was placed in London, where the wealthy Margot Mary Wendice, played by Grace Kelly, had a brief love affair with the American writer Mark Halliday (Robert Cummings) one year before the present plot while her husband and professional tennis player Tony Wendice (Ray Milland) was traveling in a tennis tournament. Tony quits playing
Alfred Hitchcock As a cinematographer, I see Alfred Hitchcock as one of the most influential people in the history of the silver screen. My synopsis of his films, however, will be through the eyes of a young man that has witnessed tragedy. I could sit and rant and rave about how Hitchcock was a great director, his films were awesome, etc., but I’ll spare you of that.
