.... companies to come in and add a new flavor to the silver screen. During this time films changed it’s traditional film making ideas. Things started to get graphic, more violent, sexual and more expressive. Movies had found a new look and with the production codes now gone and the blacklisting ending, there was an explosion of ideas that would be presented to the United States. The change in the U.S. can be said to be a social revolution. People were growing sick of the same old movies, they wanted a change and Hollywood needed to deliver or else they would lose their audience to the TV. In the early 60’s, the studios were still afraid of .....

.... to be sane throughout the play. In the beginning he tells his friend Horatio that he is going to “feign madness� (internet, Hamlet, pg. 1), and that if Horatio notices any strange behavior it is because he is putting on an act. Another big factor that suggests that Hamlet is only pretending is that he only manifests his “madness� around certain characters. These characters would be Polonius, Claudius, Gertrude, Ophelia, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. His “madness� doesn’t come out around Horatio, Bernardo, Francisco, the players or the gravediggers. At one point Claudius himself admits that Hamlet’s “actions although strang .....

.... vehemently to find cures for so many diseases? Therefore, most great literature is about sex and death, for it is those two things that are universally understood. Ibsen’s, A Doll’s House, Strindberg’s Miss Julie and Tennessee Williams Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, are three plays that illustrate the sex and death theory. A Doll’s House contains typical characters, a husband, Torvald, his wife, Nora, and the man Nora really wants, Dr. Rank. Immediately following Dr. Rank’s impending death notice is the death of Nora and Torvald’s marriage. Miss Julie’s characters struggle with sex and death through Jean and Julie with their sexual advances, .....

.... how much he believes this after Damis tells him that Tartuffe was flirting with Elmire. From this accusation Orgon replies to Damis: "I disinherit you; an empty purse / Is all you'll get from me - except my curse!" (III, vii , 68). Madame Pernelle shows the family trait that she shares with her son when she states: "He's a fine man, and should be listened to."(I, i ,44), while speaking of Tartuffe. Although they share this trait throughout the play, Orgon's eyes are finally opened at the end of the play while his mother is still held by the farce of Tartuffe. Although Tartuffe is portrayed as the main character of the play, Orgon is the char .....

.... the character's feelings at the moment, it is my feeling that West Side Story's musical style brings the viewer/listener further into the play and makes the play more effective. An example of this is when, in Act II, Scene II, of Romeo and Juliet, otherwise known as the balcony scene, Romeo expresses his thoughts in a sililoquy until Juliet shows up. While in Romeo and Juliet all of this is spoken, in West Side Story, this is written as music shared between Maria and Tony. Another major difference between these two stories is that in Romeo and Juliet, Juliet sees Romeo dead and decides to kill herself. While, in West Side Story, Tony .....

.... these characters are John Proctor, who changes his own opinions in a hypocritical way, Reverend Parris, who changes his views on whether or not witches exist, and Abigail Williams, who changes her story several times throughout the book. John Proctor, a local villager, was a firm believer that the rumor of witchcraft in the village was nonsense and was completely indifferent to the idea that witches even existed. Reverend Parris stated that the village was talking of witchcraft and Proctor said, "Then let you come out and call them wrong", clearly expressing that he did not believe them. When hysteria about the witch trials first reached him he re .....

.... and be silent.� (1.1.). When this quote is first heard in the play it helps describes Cordelia as a person aware of her conscience. Here she is deciding what she is going to say to her father when he has asked his daughters to profess their love for him and in return receive his land. Just shortly after Cordelia is heard again, “I am sure my love’s / More ponderous than my tongue,� asking herself again what she is going to say. This helps prove the first point of her self-conscience, by Cordelia wondering what she is going to say to her father. This quote also points out her real love for her father, unlike her two other sisters that exa .....

.... mad. If, on the other hand, madness is having complete loss of reason, not sane, then Hamlet’s spoken thoughts alone prove him to be sane. By his own words, Hamlet is feigning, and it is that his pretend madness is never assumed except in the presence of the king or those whom he considers the king’s agents (Hankins 127). The train of events from the death of his father to the revelation of the ghost has profoundly disturbed Hamlet. He realizes it himself and fears that the excitement within him may betray his secret. He knows well that it is beyond his power to suppress it altogether, and so he pretends to be mad. Any slip of the tongu .....

.... story's main mystery in the very opening scene. For without an introduction, besides the disorienting subtitle that this happened last night, the movie opens on a burning boat in a harbor. The first character we see is the slumped over Dean Keaton, waiting to die. Then down comes this mysterious figure, cloaked in black, and speaking in muffled tones. Keaton addresses the man as "Keyser" and then asks what time it is. After a quick check of his gold watch and the light of his cigarette, the dark one lifts up his gun and fires. Dropping his cigarette in a line of gas, the boat explodes seconds later as the camera focuses in on a stack of barrels .....

.... "But, Mom, he had a great time with us...(120)" By telling people what they want to hear, Happy thinks he will be well liked and accepted. Happy's approach to women is quite despicable. Rather than trying to settle down with someone, he goes through one girl after another. All that he cares about is having sex with women, not about having a relationship. Happy brags to his brother about his conquest of sleeping with women who are engaged to be married (25). In a conniving attempt to pick her up, he lies to the girl in the restaurant saying, "I sell champagne, and I'd like you to try my brand. Bring her a champagne, Stanley (101)." He event .....
