Anderton Called Wally Page and asked if he could come to the monkey block. She demonstrates out to him the “Precog” who produced the Minority Report: Jerry.

Occurred on March 1, 1959. R. Jess Brown a well-known African American lawyer represented Parker. On April 13th an all white grand jury indited Parker for rape and two counts of kidnapping. On April 17th Parker pleaded not guilty to each charge. Next Parker’s trial date was set for April 27th. Then Brown asked Judge Sebe Dale’s to drop the case because a black man was not on the grand jury. Brown did this because of a recent ruling made by the 5th U.S. circuit court of Appeals. The ruling stated that it was unconstitutional for a jury of an all white people to convict a black man. The ruling went on to say that one African American had to be on a jury when an African American was on trial. This defense tactic by Brown was a legally intelligent thing to do but this actually became the motive for the mob to kill Parker.
Have American’s lost the ability to show empathy? Although a novice reader may struggle to see how a book written over 50 years ago bears any connection to our modern world, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird could not be any more relevant. The citizens of fictional Maycomb County acknowledge their flawed legal system and unfair social castes as unfortunate truths of life, of which all you can do is accept it as fact. The sole exception is lawyer Atticus Finch, who is in charge of defending the accused in court. After seeing all too many men receive a sentence simply because of the color of their skin, Atticus embarks on a quest to teach Jem and Scout, his children, that prejudice can be fought. By understanding and exposing ourselves to different people, we can free ourselves from prejudice.

In the film, “Simple Justice” the ‘separate but equal’ of Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) to the unanimous 1954 overturn of Plessy in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka without discussing the tortuous legal and political path that resulted in eventual public school desegregation. It caused a huge diversity among the schools, for whites and blacks but it wasn’t enough because people kept questioning about Plessy v. Ferguson, especially of Jim Crown laws regarding the changes they wanted to have. Therefore the film “Simple Justice” indicates the Supreme Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education that segregated schools were unconstitutional, and something necessary was needed to be done.

A long time ago, when the seeds of America were still being planted in the west, there was a man named Eugene Skinner. Eugene was so tall and strong that he could fell a forest with one swing of his axe and could clear a path for a river with his own hands. Eugene was widely sought after due to his rugged good looks and capable hands by a variety of women in his hometown of Essex which was 20 miles or so away from the grand city of New York.

Forrest Gump and the Blind Side both have strong characters, inspirational moments, and incredible hardships. The movies show two very smart people who are misunderstood by many.
In 2004 Paul Haggis directed the Oscar winning film Crash, a drama fundamentally about race and its effects on various people in Los Angeles. The acclaimed movie earned rave reviews from average viewers, as it asked hard questions about racism on an individual level and showed some harsh realities that are usually avoided on the big screen. The movie promotes racial awareness, but like any conversation about race, it demands close inspection. Upon telling a friend I was watching the film and was struck by how heavy the material is, he responded, �It�s reality.� I am not so sure. Crash shows realities, but in a not-so-realistic way.
I have never really met another character quite like Forrest Gump in a movie. And for that matter, I have never quite seen a movie like “Forrest Gump,” either. In order to describe Forrest Gump, it will take quite an amount of work to make the movie seem more conventional, or normal. The movie is a coined a comedy, I guess. It could be a drama film though, or even a dream. This movie is very magical and creates quite the picture of emotions for anyone who views it.
The movie Easy A is certainly iconic in many different ways. First, the hit film gave one of the most well known movie stars, Emma Stone, her stardom. Second, although the movie is very controversial due to the sexual context, it has some valuable life lessons. I will be discussing three major conflicts that occur in the movie that include the spread of rumors, the consequences of lying and how exonerating the truth isn’t always easy.
In order to create a society with no murder he first had to commit it. Agatha, the smartest of the Pre-Cogs, was stolen away by him, and her mother Anne Lively wanted her back. What is more, he tricked the people of Pre-Crime in thinking that the murder he was going to commit was an “echo” or a repetition of a crime that already was solved. He used this knowledge and his authority to cover up his tracks so that no one will ever suspect him. The whole company was created by knowing how the pre-visions worked and Burgess gained his high position by manipulating the pre-visions and that is what is known as the “minority report”. He used this knowledge to his benefits and when Witwer found out that there was a minority report Burgess killed him to save himself from the crime he committed. On the other hand, Dr. Iris Hineman, the co-founder of Pre-Crime, tried to use this knowledge for good. It was first a test to save people like Agatha who were deathly ill. She used knowledge to try to further the advancement of medicine but created something else. Hineman was one of the few people who knew of the minority report and told Anderson about it. It shocked Anderson because he did not know whether or not the visions the Pre-Cogs have are always telling the truth. He fears that he locked away innocent people that did nothing wrong. He began to doubt the Pre-Cogs and their pre-visions, and believes that he has a minority report that will prove his innocence. The whole film was based on the creation on Pre-Crime, and without the knowledge of how to use this information, Pre-Crime would have never
