A backbone built on honor, code, and loyalty defines the “chain-of-command” mentality that associates with the military’s public persona. No clearer is this than in Rob Reiner’s A Few Good Men, bringing the judgement line of a military order and a gradually rationalized act of unethical action to the forefront. Commentary considered by Phillip Zimbardo’s “The Stanford Experiment” and Herbert C. Kelman and V. Lee Hamilton “The My Lai Massacre: A Military Crime of Obedience”, all these articles of…

become gory. The action in this film ensures that there is never a dull moment. Last but not least, the acting in the film, The Avengers, also contributed to the excellence of the movie. In the movie it used well-known actors, starting with Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man. Each superhero in this film had a strong role and every actor/actress filled that role. The villains are not forgotten because “a superhero movie is only as good as its villain”, which helps encourage Tom Hiddleston “brings it”…

Kendrick and Colonel Nathan Jessep came up with a plan. They deemed it fit that Santiago participate in “training”, with the hopes of becoming a “better Marine” he claims. However in my opinion both Lance Corporal Harold Dawson and Private Lowden Downey were directed to assault Santiago with the hopes of stopping him from revealing the illegal activities going on in the base. The defendants illegally order a “code red”. Which consisted of stuffing a rag in Santiago’s mouth, duct tapping his…

between whites and blacks in the united states when it comes to dealing with school performance. Oppositional culture theory emphasizes how blacks see limited payoff when it comes to going to school because it’s not benefiting them in the long run (Downey, 2008, pg.122). Most African Americans felt this way because in the past black people actually took advantage of the education that they received, but they lacked labor market reward for their accomplishment even though they received their…

original Sherlock Holmes. This Sherlock Holmes was well represented in these movies and was accurate to the stories that I’ve read. The best Sherlock Holmes I’ve seen is the one portrayed in the 2009 movie adaptation “Sherlock Holmes”, with Robert Downey Jr. This Sherlock is my favorite as I feel Robert plays Holmes extremely well. I believe that he was able to take the character of Holmes and make…

TV Show, Movie, and Book of Sherlock Holmes Comparison In this paper I will discuss the difference and similarities. Sherlock Holmes was in the television show and movie. Holmes was the main character. I will also discuss the characters and how Holmes solved the crimes. The characters closely relate to the attention in detail in the television episodes and the movie in comparison to the book. The movie and the book added a few further explanations to the book that were not quite as clear when…

Sorkin wrote A Few Good Men to try to communicate one major theme: what makes a person good or bad, hero or villain, altruistic or egoistic is all very subjective and depends on whoever is judging the person, and their personal life experiences and biases. This message shows up in almost every character, from the obvious protagonist Kaffee to the lesser side characters Ross and Kendrick. No one thinks they are the villain, and “villainous” people almost always think what they are doing is…

more beloved superheroes. For the most part, this movie proved a satisfying picture. Set a couple months after “Civil War,” Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Holland) is eager to become a full-fledged Avenger. He still has the suit Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) gave him, and he’s using it to fight lower level crime in New York City to prove himself to his ironclad mentor. Soon, however, Spider-Man must face his must serious threat yet, an alien technology-wielding…

This paper will focus on critiquing the book Hillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance. I will point out the positives and negatives about the book, in relation to the material learned from the class. The Hillbilly Elegy book is a memoir of a family and a culture in a crisis situation, dealing with the problem of living in a poverty-stricken Appalachian region. Vance uses his own family as the case study for his story about the hillbilly, country culture. The author J.D. Vance did a great job with this…

Literature Review Defining attachment trauma After reviewing the literature related to early attachment trauma manifested in conduct disorder symptomology, there appears to be a trend of definitions that pertains to early attachment trauma. Interestingly, it appears that the articles within this literature review never expressively used the term early attachment trauma. Instead, it appears that these researchers conceptualize early attachment trauma similarly but without expressively using the…
