similarities and differences with a similar movie is much more engaging. The two movies I have recently seen were "Daredevil" and "Elektra" and they are both based off of comic book cartoons. Immediately one can see how these two movies could be similar, but I think that having the movies based off of comics is where their differences truly shine. Between the two movies, I say "Elektra" is better because of several key criteria that I was able to spot: character development, the "all hope is lost" scene, and

The example of the harder side is near the end when Bond confronts Elektra for the last time and orders her to call off Renard from carrying out his plans.

Some may argue that this is something that James Bond shouldn’t do since Elektra was unarmed, but I beg to differ because that is part of the mission
Aeschylus’ Oresteia is the chronicles of a cursed family that includes a circle of betrayal, adultery, and murder, among other things. The Greek word oikos can be used to describe the Greek family structure. In Homer’s Odyssey, two polar opposites of oikoi are given. First, the son of Odysseus’ son Telemachus meets Nestor, who symbolizes a near-perfect oikos . The family is involved in a large sacrificial feast upon the arrival of Telemachus . He also utilizes xenia, the Greek word for manners or
libation and funeral rites offered to the dead. Aeschylus utilizes libations as a litmus test for the health of the oikos through the cultural significance of the ritual, the perversion of it by Clytemnestra, and the sincere yet incorrect offering of Elektra and The choe is intended for the dead and for Chthonic gods; nevertheless, one can also speak of spondai for the chthonioi. (Burkett, 71). The Greek side elucidates the historical meaning of the libation. The Old Indic side of the watershed reveals
