For me, Black Rain is just another prime example of why I consider Ridley Scott to be a mixed bag as a Director. Sure he’s definitely made some classics like Blade Runner, Alien, and Gladiator but other films that I’ve seen in Scott’s filmography (Robin Hood, Exodus, and G.I. Jane) seems like he gets so caught up into creating visual atmospheres (especially in this one) to the point of where he loses focus on maintaining a genuine plotting or narrative. Black Rain is an 80’s recycled tough cop…
As I was walking into the Career Center, I heard Mr. Railey tell Tyler, who was a few steps ahead of me in the hall, to take his hat off. Tyler removed his hat and acted as if he was going to throw it to the ground, but instead of throwing his hat he ended up putting it back on his head. Later in class, after Mrs. Linzey was done taking attendance, she asked Tyler to take off his sunglasses. Tyler did not immediately take off his glasses and even began to mumble things under his breath. I…

I am over protective. No, I am not Lancelot outside the palace doors; nor am I the bouncer keeping minors from entering the club. I am scared I will lose what I love and become jealous when someone is too friendly -- and I might even be said to be jealous. I am not jealous because no one has what I want, I have what I want. Which is you. I care too much, I begin to get frantic and worried. The world spins and I feel nauseated when I think about losing you to another girl. You're perfect to me…
Letter I think the children stopped dreaming because they never saw a clean slate before. They would pretend they would have dreams because then they could have something to look forward to and not just doing this to pay a debt that will take forever.I believe it is very rare to see a clean slate and it gives up hope to the kids. Karim a 17 year old who has weird fingers and he believed in good and evil.I can tell that he has been doing this for a long time because he has been doing this for a…
The boys that play on the same team as me are not young boys anymore they are young men because boys do not play this sport because if it was easy everyone would play it. They are good kind hearted people, we laugh and joke and fight but that's what brothers do best. When I'm playing on that field with and for them it just makes me happy. This sport and that grind brings us closer together than any other person would understand that bond that we have because of everything we been…
"Y-y - you sunovabitch! You tricked me! There ain't no cigarettes, t- t- this is a piece of fucking trash!" Two men in an alleyway, only touched by the light of a poorly maintained dimly-lit street light while the alley way itself is riddled with filth coming from one end to another. The belligerent man appeared to be drunk, constantly slurring his words and sporadically moving about. While the other man looked very young, like he was midway throughout adolescence. Despite that the look in his…
