Telling the story of a photographer, L.B. “Jeff” Jefferies, the film delves into the metafictional ways in which he uncovers a murderer while recuperating from an accident.

simply a worker there. He didn't want to attract a gold-digger. "Then we have something in common," she says. "Neither one of us can be trusted." Actually, he can. "Original Sin" is based on the novel Waltz into Darkness , by the famous noir writer Cornell Woolrich.

If anyone looked at me they would think I am an ordinary college student. I wake up every morning wishing to get a couple more seconds of sleep. I make my way to school I listen, I learn, I make my way back home and I study, or depending on the day I go to work. Some days are as simple and relaxing as these, but some are not.

Tipping has turned from a gratuity into a moral obligation and it has become more of a problem then you might think. Despite common belief, tipping doesn’t incentivize hard work.
