My favorite character in The Hundred-foot Journey is Marguerite, performed by Charlotte Le Bon. A short black curly hair woman with big brown eyes makes my heart flutters. In the movie, Marguerite described as a woman who agonizes between love and dream. Lawrence Toppman of The Charlotte Observer said, “Romance blossoms when one child in the Kadam family, elder brother Hassan (Manish Dayal), displays tremendous talent. He wins over a sous-chef from the French staff (Charlotte Le Bon) and convinces Mallory (Toppman). Contrary with men, women are more consider about love than works. If I am Marguerite, I will never give cooking books to Hassan and fall in love with him. Not only women but also men do not want to compete with lover. However, Marguerite

    Eva Macky Summary

    The first reading addressed was “Settling differences: Managing and representing people and land in the Canadian national project.” by Eva Mackey. One of the first concepts Mackey discusses is the idea of “white settler innocence” (p. 26), which explores how European settlement in Canada claimed to be superordinate to the Native people already residing on the land, but seemingly treated them fairly, giving them land and autonomy, when in fact their intent was secretly selfish. Because of this “white settler innocence” (p. 26), Canada garnered a reputation as an accepting and tolerant nation, in particularly towards the Native people, especially when compared to the United State’s treatment of Native people. When in fact Canadian’s only used…

    La Mara Salvatrucha (Ms-13)

    Americans generally want to believe they live in a country of safety, freedom, and well-being. They don’t want real crime where they live in the suburbs because that’s only something that happens in impoverished countries and areas of the country that no one vacations to. The truth of the matter is that we have well organized and established gangs in America working with entities such as Daesh, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, Hezbollah, and others right here in our backyards. One of the major players in this atrocious arrangement is La Mara Salvatrucha, more commonly known as MS-13. MS-13 is a Los Angeles based gang comprised of mostly Salvadorans and people of other Central American descent.…

    Analysis Of The Film Breathless

    The phrase “New Wave” was a blanket term given to a materializing film movement in Europe in the late1950’s and 1960’s, mainly in France, Italy, and England where an abrupt manifestation of brilliant films emerged. This movement consisted of two groups of directors, the Cahiers , majorly consisting of critics turned filmmakers and the Left Bank who consisted of individuals who went straight into filmmaking. Jean-Luc Godard was within the Cahier division. In collaboration with Francois Truffaut, Godard’s highly acknowledged film Breathless became a poster film for the French New Wave and experienced critical and financial success that enabled the movement to flourish. “New Wave filming techniques depended on more than shooting quickly on location,…

Deprived of freedom and individuality, Edna struggles to reconcile the outward semblance of conformity that society demands of her, with her own internal questioning of her desire to remain entrapped in society’s imposed roles upon women. Throughout the novel, the tension that arises from outward conformity and inward questioning possesses over Edna’s consciousness, revealing her inability to fully relinquish the social norms that the Creole society expects from her.

    The Haunted Tropics: Caribbean Ghost Stories, edited by Martin Munro, is a collection of short stories written by contemporary writers of the Caribbean, as well as others from Canada and the Unites States.
