where he gave his speech, he’s speech was symbolic in every aspect. On the contrary, Governor Wallace’s speech is remembered because of the depth of hate and the harshness of his voice. According to Charles Jr. Dean, in his article, George Wallace 's 1963 inaugural address: A speech that lives in infamy (slideshow, video) he states that “I think Wallace…told Asa Carter, 'Write us something that will get them going…I don 't think Wallace [thought much] about it beyond that point" (Dean).

were creating. These so called heroes were as ruthless, greedy and can show as much lack of compassion as the bad guy they are trying to take down. Their heroism is not intended for praise but for justice and integrity. An example of this character Humphrey Bogart, the man who personified the genre as private eye Sam Spade in ‘The Maltese Falcon, ' is emotionally aloof to the homicide of his partner and vindicates his death primarily because “when one of your organisation gets killed, it’s bad…

- Time differences It is clear from the living times of the two great dancers that they lived in different times with Wigman having the peak of her career in the early 40s while Pina was active up to the close of the 20th century and even in the beginning of the 21sst century. The differences create Pina as an image of a modern dancer who found the stage well set without much hindrance. On the other hand, Wigman was among the pioneers who were responsible for setting the stage. It follows that…

The art of contemporary dance was born around the 1980’s and this art referred to the movement of new dancers who did not want to follow strict classical ballet and lyrical dance forms, but instead wanted to explore the concept of revolutionary unconventional movements that were gathered from all dance styles of the world. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements. Contemporary dances therefore do not use fixed or established movement patterns but…

History Many people would agree that Planet Of The Apes was an iconic film, which is probably why they made multiple movies and a tv show. The film was revolutionary for the prosthetics they used for the apes. The film even won an Academy Award for its makeup effort. The movie actually started out as an idea for The Twilight Zone but it was too expensive for the show to make, so they brought it to 20th Century Fox. When they brought it to Fox they had to make a quick test scene. The movie ended…

In class we have been discussing tools for choreography such as juxtaposition, counter point, mirroring, cannon, and many others. A piece that I found called “Framed” by M&N Dance Company displays a lot of these different tools that we have learned about these past couple of weeks. This piece was beautifully crafted and since it was a duet I believe it was very difficult to provide as much variety as they did in this piece. One of the first tools they utilized was mirroring. This was easy to…

I asked my dance teacher: "Can you teach me how to do a split?" She said: "How flexible are you?" I said: "I can make it Tuesday's and Thursday's" What exactly is flexibility? I can bend both meanings of the word into my life. I am both physically and mentally flexible. Ever since the age of 4, I have been wildly entangles with the beauty of dance. I don’t know whether the fascination came from the ballerina TV shows i used to watch, from the dancers I saw out in the streets, or whether I was…

A Time of Change: America from 1960-1980 The death of President John F. Kennedy had a major impact on the United States of America. This president did not only die, he was assassinated, and his killer remains unknown. The day Kennedy died America wept. There are still so many questions that are left with no answers. What produced this “crime of the century”, why has there been so much controversy over it, and how did it affect the next presidents? John F. Kennedy wanted peace. In June 1963…

Godard used a few difference camera angles and styles such as iris shot, close up, medium and wide shots, and camera movement. Godard also used many jump cuts and quick cuts to shift between scenes. For instance, in the beginning, he used jump and quick cuts of close up shots of Michel and a woman that let the audience have the illusion of Michel is having a very close relationship with with that woman. As Godard switch to a wide-angle shot, that’s where we know we have been fooled and they were…
