“Objectification isn’t about seeing someone as a person in a box, but rather seeing the box as being the person” (Anonymous 2000). This objectification has been a particular problem for females over time, especially in the early ages. In Of S Theodora, A Virgin, Who is Called Christina (1096-8-1160), translated by Talbot, an anonymous author displays the objectification of women through the denial of autonomy in forcing Christina to marry and be trapped in a room, violability in how her unwanted…

In addition, how does the scenes in the films change the content and the personalities of the characters in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein? When I watched the movie of Frankenstein that published in 1931 and directed by James Whale, I recognized that there are differences between the novel and the film version. The first difference I noticed in Whale’s film is the names of the characters have been change and rearrange. For instance, the protagonist in the film is Henry Frankenstein instead of…

Westley, the handsome hero in William Goldman’s classic novel The Princess Bride, is selfless. He is selfless because he willingly sacrifices his life to save the lives of the people around him, particularly Buttercup, Westley’s true love. Westley does this with little regard for his own well-being. Instead, he is all about putting others’ needs before his own. This is because he can see beyond his own concerns. Thus, he is able to be there for others, particularly Buttercup, when the need…

The Princess Bride, created by Rob Reiner, presents love, death, and fate. This movie brings the characters closer together as they go through their own quests and complete their quests. Archetypal criticism reveals that the strength of a relationship can overcome misfortune by reflecting the quest archetype. In Princess Bride, Westley's quest is to return to his true love, Buttercup, whom he has loved since a young worker on her family's farm. With no money to marry, Westley decides to strike…

I have just finished watching the film "The Princess Bride" and would like to give my review and opinion on the movie. "The Princess Bride" was directed by Rob Reiner and has since been known as one of the more popular princess/fairytale movies since its original release in 1987. The run time for the film is 98 minutes and has a 97% from "Rotten Tomatoes." "The Princess Bride" is set in fiction and fantasy places but the movie mainly takes place in "Florin" and "Guilder." The movie begins with a…

“Westley, it’s freezing in this nursery!” Buttercup shouted “I know but we don’t have money to pay for heat.” Westley said. “Well then, I guess I will get a job.” “No need for that.” Westley said annoyed. “Just knit some blankets while Emily is taking a nap.” Wesley grabbed his sword, kisses buttercup and his two week old baby on the forehead and leaves for work. “Don’t worry baby. Soon we will get money and build a nice home.” Buttercup lays the baby in the crib, picks up a knitting…

Upon first glance the princess bride may seem like just another “hero-saves-the-girl-and-helps-all-his-friends-achieve-their-goals” type of story, which it is. However what the book and movie both accomplish is to recognize the irony in itself. The book is basically a “Book within a book” and the movie is “A book within a movie”. Both of them achieve their goal in showing this. The book starts with a boy being read a book, his grandfather stops reading because he sees that his grandson is…

The overall structure and organization of this movie is really impressive. It starts off with the story being told by the narrator to his sick grandson. The movie The Princess Bride is a fairytale adventure about a young girl and her one true love. The story begins with Buttercup, a young blue eyed girl, that lives on a farm. On the farm there’s Westley, a poor farmboy. Buttercup spends most of her day bossing Westley around ,until she realizes she's in love with Westley. Lucky for her, Westley…
