The Bucket List is a drama/comedy about two dying men who travel the world to try to discover their passion and joy in their lives. The two men used in this movie (Morgan…

As Brendan Fraser once stated, “I guess darkness serves as a purpose: to show us that there is redemption through chaos. I believe in that,” there is the present concept of redemption. Redemption, without a doubt, is denoted as the restorative or revengeful state of being at the end of a linear sequence. There can be no redemption without conflict, just as there is no night without day. In Elie Wiesel’s Night, he incorporates redemption in a darker stance and tone. Rather, redemption in his work…

In lay perspective, ideas of illness include more than just the immediate cause of a condition, unlike the ideas in biomedicine. Apart from gauging the severity of the disease and the…

David Fincher’s The Social Network (2010) is a biographical drama film based on the creation of Facebook. However, the film is so much more than that; it's a film about young ambition, friendship, loyalty, betrayal and much more.

He got into a school where the students all got a 1600 on their SAT scores including him.…

Many people believe that Saint Brendan’s passage and how he got there led to Columbus’ discovery of America. The invention of the Caxton…

I could handle strange looks and sly remarks from a bunch of nine-year olds, but when I reached middle-school, the impact of other people’s words hit me in a new way.
