book is known for the amazing story behind two social groups. The Outsiders is a very descriptive book that lets you picture everything in your mind. The book had an amazing impact that later years a movie was made into a motion picture melodrama by Francis Ford Coppola in 1983. The movie purpose was to give us a better explanation and perspective about the book. The movie made me think and wonder about all the differences between the novel and the movie and it also made me realized which source…

The 1972 film, The Godfather, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, is a perfect example of feudalism. With Vito Corleone as the king pin and the rest of his family as major players in the New York mafia. The Godfather is not the normal gangster film or a film about Italian immigrants.

While the film takes place mainly in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s, there are no democratic institutions seen. There are no…

“They grew up on the outside of society. They weren’t looking for a fight. They were looking to belong.” Who you ask? The greasers and the Socs in the book, “The Outsiders” written by S.E. Hinton.

In the outsiders page 48 it says “But I gotta do something, It seems like there's gotta be someplace without greasers or socs with just normal people.” This shows that he wishes things would change. He wishes that there wasn't any so called gangs. It also says in page 41 “Maybe the two different worlds we lived in were not so different,” This shows that the people were alike but they need to change so they can actually realize it. In the Inaugural…

How Volunteering Changed My Perspective We live in a world where the newest clothes, phones, and cars are worshipped. There is a constant battle between companies for the money of teens. Meanwhile, families cannot afford heat, food, in worst cases even shelter. Almost always, poverty is followed by a high crime rate. This makes it difficult for parents to provide for their children. All of the needs of others are ignored for the rewards of a materialistic world. My experiences have humbled me…
