Although Andy Wiest's Boys of '67 and Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers are set in different historical periods, with the former taking place during the Vietnam War and the latter in World War II, both stories reveal similarities in the soldiers' experiences on the battlefield. These shared elements center around camaraderie, and the collective experience of trauma. However, notable differences also existed, such as the objectives of each war, the character of the conflicts, and the public perceptions surrounding them. Despite the transformative shift in warfare from World War II to the Vietnam War, a consistent theme emerges in the narratives of Wiest and Ambrose- death and dealing with trauma.
The War took place, “at ten miles” height.” (Document D). Because of this, children weren’t aware of the war, due to the fact that they were all asleep.

A Raisin in the Sun PBA Unit 2 Cinematography and filmmaking are art forms completely open to interpretation in many ways such lighting, the camera as angles, tone, expressions, etc. By using cinematic techniques a filmmaker can make a film communicate to the viewer on different levels including emotional and social. Play writes include some stage direction and instruction regarding the visual aspect of the story. In this sense, the filmmaker has the strong basis for adapting a play to the big screen. “A Raisin in the Sun” is a play by Lorraine Hansberry that debuted on Broadway in 1959.
WWI was a terrifying and brutal war in which many innocent men gave their lives. The book “Generals Die in Bed” and the movie “Flyboys” are both about WWI, and they both show how WWI devastated many young men. The book “Generals Die in Bed” represents WWI better than the movie “Flyboys” because the movie is unrealistic and mostly fictional, the book was written by a man who was in the war himself, and the movie demonstrated the fights in the air, while most of the fighting actually happened on the ground, and in the trenches. “Flyboys” is unrealistic, and mostly fictional and does not do a good job of showing the suffering of the men. In the movie, there is a scene in which the main character lands his plane in the middle of no man’s land (the spaces in between trenches) and runs through it to rescue his comrade.
In war, there is no clarity, no sense of definite, everything swirls and mixes together. In Tim O’Brien’s novel named “The Things They Carried”, the author blurs the lines between the concepts like ugliness and beauty to show how the war has the potential to blend even the most contrary concepts into one another. “How to Tell a True War Story” is a chapter where the reader encounters one of the most horrible images and the beautiful descriptions of the nature at the same time. This juxtaposition helps to heighten the blurry lines between concepts during war. War photography has the power to imprint a strong image in the reader’s mind as it captures images from an unimaginable world full of violence, fear and sometimes beauty.

: For my presentation I have chosen to examine Steven Spielberg and what stylistic features he uses to make himself considered as an auteur. An auteur is a director that has a unique style in filming and has complete control of the production process of the film. The three films that I have chosen to focus on are E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982), A.I. Artificial Intelligence(2001) and Close Encounters (1977). These are three of Steven Spielberg's most known films.
Hillenbrand depicts the battle scenes beautifully, describing even the most minute of details, to make the reader feel as if he or she is actually there. “The plane was gravely wounded, trying to fly up and over onto its back. It wanted to stall and wouldn’t turn, and the pilots needed all their strength to hold it level. Three Zeros (Japanese Plane) orbited it, spewing streams of bullets and cannon shells.” (100) She also makes the reader want to throw up with her graphic descriptions of punishment and torture.
