Versailles- This was originally a hunting lodge. Versailles developed in the 17th century, and built by Louis XIII, and later inherited by Louis XIV. This also was the place where the French Revolution took place at the palace. 6.
Though they take place in different places, many similarities are seen when comparing Cool Hand Luke with Cuckoo’s Nest. This is seen when Both Mcmurphy and Luke get looked up to by their peers, when Luke and Mcmurphy are in confined space, controlled by a leader, and when they eventually rise up and go against the rulers! First I will talk about how Mcmurphy and Luke are the same.

These similarities are consist of symbolism, architecture, and materials used in the structures.

Annually, millions of people travel to northern France to view the grand and pompous Baroque style of the Palace of Versailles’s Hall of Mirrors. Built in 1698 during the reign of Louis XIV, the Palace of Versailles stood for over 100 years as “the primary residence of the kings of France and the seat of the government,” and in 1979, the Palace of Versailles and its gardens were decreed a World Heritage site by the UNESCO. An examination of the Palace’s Hall of Mirrors will reveal a dramatic use of light, symmetry, large-scale frescoes, a shell for painting, sculpture, and stucco, and an opulent use of rich color and accessories common to a French Baroque-style interior. Louis XII (r. 1610 - 1643) used the initial residence as a hunting lodge and retreat for his family, and in 1624, he commissioned Jacques Lemercier to build a chateau on the site, which remains as “the exterior façade overlooking the Marble Court.” From 1661 to 1710, Louis XIV oversaw the residential transformation of the majestic complex surrounded by gardens.

In the midst of the heated arguments that plague many governments, many think pieces and articles have been released explaining why each side is correct in their belief.
The desire to feel accepted throughout all societies has been an element that has ceased to waiver throughout the years and due to the world of business, specifically Hollywood, there has been the release of many novel based films, but due to this pressure and necessity for acceptance there has been some great and not so great films. For example, the film The Color Purple based on the novel written by Alice Walker was directed by Steven Spielberg, although his film got the point across he omitted some important information for the sake of the limited time window to provide all of the important information to the patrons who choose to see the movie.

Louis XIV built the Palace of Versailles to demonstrate power and control, Peter the Great built St. Petersburg, “window to the west” to show control of nobility of the city. They both were determined to make their buildings last to prove their ruling would go down in history. Versailles was for luxury and entertainment through gambling, most that is still present today through parties and concerts. St. Petersburg was used for social gatherings for men and women, forced to socialize 3 times a week and to have rituals often.
