What is That 70’s Show? Erik Adams explains it to be, “... a sitcom set in malaise years whose true purpose was never lampooning disco cheese or outdated technology—though it did that, too. That ’ '70s Show is about the smaller stuff, the truly memorable moments of adolescence unseen in the history books” (Adams). What Adams means by this is that this show, while set in a very distinct time period, put a larger emphasis on what the adolescent characters were going through and how they lived in the

The best part about That 70’s Show was the chemistry between the cast members. Topher Grace, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Danny Masterson, Laura Prepon, and Wilmer Valderrama breathed life into that show.

Utopia to Dystopia: The Collapse of Animal Farm The attempt at creating a utopian society led the animals closer to a dystopia. The novel Animal Farm demonstrates that a fantasy paradise is unattainable and is parallel to the attempt of the Soviet Union.

Sarah Polley) is a formidable example of reflexive storytelling in a way that expresses itself well enough to hide the small details of fabrication that make the film tell such an intriguing story. Stories We Tell is a prime example of applying the narrators voice into the documentary because, for one, the material is a personal subject for Sarah Polley, but it lends a hand
