The affordances of the specific medium chosen helps to assist the narrative in different ways. Film and text are two examples of different types of media that can be used. One could compare Erik Larson’s book The Devil in the White City and Christopher Nolan’s film Memento. The comparison of these two media, which both show the protagonists committing murder, is able to portray the advantages and disadvantages of each medium. By comparing the murder scenes in each of these works, one is able to define the aspects in which each medium succeeds or fails.

The “9 Hot Buttons” of violence discussed in F. Miguel Valenti’s book, More Than a Movie: Ethics in Entertainment, are as follows: choice of perpetrator, choice of victim, presence of consequences, rewards and punishment, the reason for violence, the presence of weapons, realism, the use of humor, and prolonged exposure. These are all creative elements that have been proven to manipulate viewers reactions (Valenti, 99). A good example of a movie that can be examined for the use of all of these elements is Steven Spielberg’s 1998 film, Saving Private Ryan. As for the choice of the perpetrator and victim in this film, there are many instances where Spielberg uses this element to evoke an emotional connection. For about the first thirty minutes of the film the director portrays

In consideration of this concept the underlying principles of interpersonal communication, there is a need to assess its applicability in the movie; Goodfellas.

They are permitted to distort facts, create facts, manipulate information, and often times mislead people in order to solve crimes and apprehend the bad guys. Officer will tell a suspect in a crime they have video of him or her committing the offense or they will say they have a witness who can identify them. Some will even go to the extent to pose the question to those under suspicion of whether or not they can explain the presence of their DNA at a crime scene, making them believe it has already been found. This is usually done with little or no backlash from top administration or from the public at large.

Criminal behaviour has always been an interest for psychologists, for they could never quite come to a conclusion between nature and nurture. Research concerning this topic has been organized for many years and due to the never ending debate, is still being conducted. I have decided to read and write about this myself, for I was genuinely curious about the matter and wanted to be a part of the research, as I felt responsible to do so. I believe that in order to stop something, it must be discussed and scrutinized. What effects do genes have on criminal behaviour, why do peer pressure and habitat influence a person to commit crimes and are men really more violent than women?
According to Andrews and Bonta (2010) the psychology of criminal conduct ( PCC) can be defined as an approach to scientifically understand the criminal behavior of individuals through a systematic approach. Additionally, the psychology of criminal conduct is considered to be interdisciplinary, and considers all aspects of science that will assist in the further comprehension of an individuals criminal behavior, and the causes of criminal behavior (Andrews and Bonta , 2010).

Furthermore, the psychology of criminal conduct can be described as using
This essay compares and contrasts two films, “Dial M for Murder” and its remake “A Perfect Murder” in order to analyse how these films depict the main female characters Margo and Emily. The paper especially focuses on the remake’s intention to present a modern version of women or wives, by looking at the changes in characters, settings and the use of phone as a medium. Firstly, “A Perfect Murder” makes several changes to the original characters in an attempt to revise the traditional gender roles.
