Freedom Writers Diary is a book by Erin Gruwell and was adopted by the film Freedom writers on the year of 2007. It is a movie that we watched during the class of computer fundamentals and it is said that it is adopted on the book of the ‘Freedom Writer’s Diary’ by Erin Gruwell. For us we used to assume things and easily stick stigma without them knowing. We don’t think before we act, the reason why blaming people is used as an excuse. Several people don’t put an effort to change the students’ behaviors and their racist problems because they assumed that they don’t have potentials.

Divided We Fall is one of such movies; it evokes certain feelings and emotions and makes viewers think about very important and valuable things of the human being. Since the main topics of the movie are war, loyalty, friendship, forgiveness, and help, one can state that Divided We Fall is very deep in its sense and shows some vivid situations of human life.

In our exploration of Oh What A Lovely War, devised by Theatre Workshop and directed by Joan Littlewood. I, as well as my group, came across many challenges and opportunities throughout the extract. It was produced in 1963 and is an anti-war piece which was based on World War I. We wanted to remain true to the political message/gest of the play by mocking the senior command, represented by Haig. We wanted to show their incompetence when they needlessly sacrificed the soldiers’ lives. The genre is political theatre with elements of documentary and musical theatre; however, it doesn’t have a particular style so therefor utilises a mixture of styles including musical elements, Brechtian techniques such as the MC breaking the fourth wall, naturalistic
The movie “Glory” tells the history and the story of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry. It became the first black regiment to fight for the North in the Civil War. The Regiment was made up of black soldiers – some were Northern freemen, some were escaped slaves. The leader was General Robert Gould Shaw, the son of Boston abolitionists. The men of the 54th Regiment proved themselves worthy of the freedom for which they fighting, and the respect of their fellow white soldiers.
The movie I decided to analyze for this course was American History X (1998), which stars Edward Norton. Though this movie isn’t widely known, it is one of the more interesting movies I have seen. It’s probably one of the best films that depict the Neo Nazi plague on American culture. The film takes place from the mid to late 1990’s during the Internet boom, and touches on subjects from affirmative action to Rodney King. One of the highlights of this movie that really relates to one of the key aspects of this course is the deterrence of capital punishment. Edward Norton’s portrayal as the grief stricken older brother who turns to racist ideologies and violence to cope with his fathers death, completely disregards the consequences of his actions as he brutally murders someone in front of his family for trying to steal his car. The unstable mentality that he developed after his father’s death really goes hand-to-hand specifically with Isaac Ehrlich’s study of capital punishment and deterrence. Although this movie is entirely fictional, a lot of the central themes (racism, crime punishment, gang pervasiveness, and one’s own vulnerability) are accurate representations of the very problems that essentially afflict us as a society.
Should the American government manipulate information to the public in order to help support war efforts? The film Flags of Our Fathers by Clint Eastwood (2006) shows that after a long grueling battle on the island of Iwo Jima in Japan, U.S. troops take control of the island and the American Flag is risen on Mount Suribachi. This symbolizes a massive milestone in the war but it also misguides the American people towards thinking the war was over. This event becomes very controversial because the military ordered the flag to be risen again in order to have a picture taken of the men raising the flag and the photo was staged. The issue with this, is that since the war continued for another month, 3 of the men who originally rose the flag died
