I think the most valuable product in the iZombie presentations is the Dingo. The Dingo is the most valuable product because it gives the user multiple abilities to increase the chances of survival, the location of the store is remote enough to where zombies cannot access it, and the exploding button as a last resort to save yourself from the pain of being killed by a zombie. The first reason why I think the Dingo is the most valuable product is the multiple abilities the Dingo has, which…

Both Shindler’s List and Maus tells the story of the Holocaust in a creative and visual way that helps the audience understand the significance of this historical event. Each of these representations takes a different approach in looking and remembering the Holocaust. As a reader, I found it quite intriguing that Maus grasped my attention and maintained it throughout the book with its relatable content. On the other hand, Shindler’s List also did a great job at drawing me into the context in its…

Thomas Keneally tells the true tale of Czech businessman and Nazi member, Oskar Schindler, and his heroic deeds during the Holocaust in his book, Schindler’s List. The story follows Oskar, as he joins the Nazi forces in hopes of attaining a wondrous profit, who runs a factory to receive payment, luxuries and contribute to the war effort. Oskar, shortly after reaching his position among the Nazi and SS parties, comes to the decision to help save as many Jewish lives as possible after witnessing…

differences between Night and Schindler's List (Rhetorical question/quote). Many books and movies describe the lives of people during the Holocaust, but more specifically the book Night by Elie Wiesel and Schindler’s list directed by Steven Spielberg are going to be focused on most. Night explains the story of Elie Wiesel and his experience as a jew during the holocaust as well as how Elie took care of his dad and tried to survive for the both of them. Schindler's list takes a different…

At first glance, Oskar's disloyalty to his wife Emilie and the fact that he has a wife, a mistress, and a girlfriend might seem like a relatively unimportant part of Schindler's List. Schindler’s disloyalty is very easily interpreted as a background context for the book, and for the purpose of giving Oskar personality traits. Disloyalty is obviously a bad characteristic, but it’s possible we could empathise with Schindler now, because he is a flawed person, which is realistic and gives him a…

Whatcha doing there old man? Checking off my bucket list. What’s a “bucket list”? A bucket list is a list of things someone wants to do before they die. Are you going to die soon sir? Don’t you have something better to do kid? SCRAM! Many people have a list of things they want to do before they pass into the afterlife, many are unable to complete or start their bucket list because they had a sudden death. The reason people make bucket lists is that they fear they won’t be able to experience them…

The film Schindler’s list is set during WWII, and focuses on the horrible atrocities that happened to the Jews. I found it remarkable that the film was not portrayed from neither a German Nazi view, nor Jewish view. Schindler’s list shows the viewer the horror of the war and the suffering of those involved. The movie is based on Oskar Schindler’s role in saving 1.200 Jews during the war. At the start of the movie, Schindler was a member of the Nazi party and was only in Germany for one thing,…

but rather develops as my experiences and biases change. The one book I have read explore the concept of the loss of an identity. Set pre to post 9/11, The Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid explores, the engaging narrative of Changez, who is a Pakistani living in the terrorism altered America. He recounts his life story to the reader, who is presumed to be an American agent or a business man. On the other hand, Schindler’s List by Tomas Keneally is a true story of Oskar Schindler a German…

The Diverse Correlation Between Father and Son Herr Schindler senior of Schindler’s List has very specific ideas regarding destiny, which become evident when he states that “Destiny […] was not a limitless rope. It was a piece of elastic. The harder you went forward, the more fiercely you were jerked back to your starting point” (39). Herr Hans Schindler demonstrates a fairly negative outlook on life, considering his failed marriage, and the ongoing economic crisis of his past. Therefore, it…

Schindler’s List takes place in the Polish city of Krakow and many of the German-owned enamelware factories that Schindler used throughout Western Poland and Germany. The movie took place in the 1940s when WWII was dominating Europe and the Nazis had total control of most of the continent, Poland was part of this massive facist dictatorship. The movie begins at the time when the Nazis began forcing the Polish Jews to move into ghettos. Oskar Schindler, a man who was a member of the Nazi party,…
