I will be using the Written Essay format when it comes down to my final project. For this project I will be examining the classic firefighter film Backdraft (Ron Howard, 1991). This is a fun big budgeted film made in the 90’s that still happens to have the feel of a drama from the 1980’s. The film itself covers many of the topics that help associate the film itself with the tropes of 80’s melodrama. The tropes it does follow include the ensemble cast (this time with a nearly all male cast), family

The government does experiments trying to turn people into a sort of weapon. The film follows a ship with a group of smugglers on it that work to avoid the government until they discover a horrible secret. The film Serenity makes use of the science-fiction element of galactic government control throughout the
the same level of physical and mental ability. The concept of Serenity is the ability to live freely with the absence of feeling guilt, sorrow, anger, or loathe between man and life, without their depictions being manipulated by outside forces. The example for this is how society in this novel tries to make their world perfect and happy, only to make it a living nightmare. A way this is a nightmare and not with the concept of Serenity is how all the people must have handicaps. The function of these
technology, social structure, and building structure from the 19th century are characteristically different from what they are today. So imagine how vastly different the world will look in the year of 2517. This is the year in which Joss Whedon’s film Serenity is set. It is a science fiction movie with spaceships and space travel, although conversely half of it seems as if it takes place in the time of the Wild West. Having such an exaggerated contrast in the two time periods in which Whedon decided to
Serenity Lopez had trouble falling asleep. She had an eerie feeling something was going to happen that night. She tried to shake off the feeling that had settled upon her. Yet she still couldn’t sleep. She had a feeling that this was not going to be a normal night. She had just moved into the old ramshackle manor that her mother had insisted upon. This was only her second night in the new house, and she still wasn’t sure about it. When her mom had first showed it to her, she had laughed in despair
In the future, a spaceship called Serenity is harboring a passenger with a deadly secret. Six rebels on the run. An assassin in pursuit. When the renegade crew of Serenity agrees to hide a fugitive on their ship, they find themselves in an awesome action-packed battle between the relentless military might of a totalitarian regime who will destroy anything - or anyone - to get the girl back and the bloodthirsty creatures who roam the uncharted areas of space. But, the greatest danger of all may be
A Search for Serenity in the Wild Has life ever taken a toll on you that may have pushed you to do something many dare not to do or have you at least thought of doing it? Well for Chris McCandless that’s exactly what happened, he didn’t have to think about it he just acted on his desires. In the story “Into the Wild” by John Krakauer, readers are able to get an insight of what Chris McCandless or Alexander Supertramp (his new name he created for himself after abandoning all he had left) experienced
Peace and serenity are important in a Buddhist funeral. As the Buddhists have a diverse tradition, there is no single funeral or ritual service that all Buddhists use (Jamtech solutions, 2015, the Buddhist society). At a traditional Buddhist funeral, the family will wear white or cover their clothing with a traditional white cloth, along with a headband or armband. They can also, Walk with sticks to show that grief has left them the need for support, Chant or sing appropriate prayers, Bring offerings
mostly positive emotions towards one’s past with a hint of negative affect towards missing the one’s past (Abeyta, Routledge, & Juhl, 2015; Wildscut et. al., 2006). Holak and Havlena (1998) associated nostalgia with tenderness, exhilaration, loss, serenity and pleasure. Research has suggested that nostalgia can be triggered by negative emotions in order to counteract

The next example of Intertexuality Vonnegut chose to incorporate in Slaughterhouse-Five proves acceptance of war and death as inevitable part of life. Serenity prayer is used twice in the novel: firstly it appears as a framework hanging on Billy’s office wall and for the second time Vonnegut sees it on the inside a chain locket hanging around Montana Wildhack’s neck. Vonnegut’s incidental incorporation of visual materials puts him at the beginning of more recent experimentations in intermediality

so close to the ranch, humans act like invasive species ruining the area in which they don’t belong. Steinbeck establishes the setting through the use of contrasting imagery, similes, and repetition in order to reveal how humans destroy nature’s serenity. In the novel Of Mice and Men, Steinbeck uses contrasting imagery in order to establish the setting. By doing this he reveals how human disrupt nature’s original state. In the beginning of the passage, Steinbeck describes the rabbits to “come out
individuals hold the power to shape their own destinies in their daily lives. Despite what many may believe, every man is in fact the architect of their own fate as proven throughout the analyzation of the tragic character Macbeth, the words within the Serenity Prayer, and from our own real-life experiences. William Shakespeare's play, Macbeth, is a prime example of how one's choices and actions throughout one's life can shape one's future. At the beginning of the play, Macbeth is an honorable and
“The Ocean” by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a illustration of the contrast in serenity between life and death. This meaning is likely due to events that happened in Hawthorne’s life, and events happening at the time. Hawthorne writes of the caves in the ocean which embody serenity in contrast with the harsh waves of the surface. The serenity of the caves is the serenity of the dead, and the harsh waves are the people living. Nathaniel Hawthorne has had an early introduction to mortality. When Hawthorne
can only represent the hijacked planes used to terrorize a whole nation, with the small words “in memory,” under the title (Rengetsu and Ankerson). The serenity of the title page is continued by the poem itself, with the sound of insects and the screen being a calm image of the sky and the reflection of the moon in calm water, but this serenity is again broken
Ashton Derico April 27, 2016 EH 102 So It Goes In “Slaughterhouse Five”, Kurt Vonneguh displays the saying so it goes throughout his work. This saying is mostly used after a death has been recognized in the book. So it goes plays a part in help bringing an equilibrium to all the deaths that transpire within the novel, and even if the deaths are predictable, accidental, or intentional. The phrase so it goes, reflects a kind of simplicity in the Tralfamadorian mindset that although a person may be

The first group of emotion in Monet’s paintings is serenity. Serenity is a state in which people are liberated from anxiety or stress of daily hassle. Monet, in general, depicts serenity in his artworks mostly involving a recreation of people amid beautiful sceneries. The subject matter is people’s facial expressions of
