cartoons (eventhogh I love them), and the V.R. Troopers, to name a couple.
Surprise! they are either based on fighting or getting smashed by trucks and we
laugh and we love it. It's hard to beat watching someone else beat up on after
you just had a bad day.
Football and hockey, can't beat them but no one really cares about the

A Scene From Martin Scorcese's "Mean Streets"
Words: 491 - Pages: 2.... For him, it seems, having actors with whom he
knows well, keeps his vision under more control.
In terms of style, Scorsese likes to experiment. In his mobster
movies, Scorsese likes to film and edit much of it like a documentary. This
is effective in helping the viewer to get acquainted with the criminal life.
Parts of Goodfellas and Mean Streets were in this style as was, to a more
obvious degree, the first half hour of Casino. Usually the narration plays
a large part in this style of filmmaking. The use of narration, in general,
is another one of Scorsese's styles.
In Mean Streets, there is a wonderfully lit and choreographed .....

Hamlet: Brutal Truth
Words: 923 - Pages: 4.... of the cosmos and mankind.
Throughout the play, the themes of illusion and mendaciousness have been
carefully developed. The entire royal Danish court is ensnared in a web of
espionage, betrayal, and lies. Not a single man speaks his mind, nor
addresses his purpose clearly. As Polonius puts it so perfectly: "And thus
