Through this little thing called life we all try to figure out who we are what we want to be and ultimately what we want to accomplish in life.

The short story desperately needs for the story to be more interesting, also the movie works better than the story, by adding in scenes that helps improve the movie drastically which the short story lacked.

Whether literature turns out to be a bestseller or a paper weight is decided by two very critical elements. Together, setting and character work to build the foundation and plot to a story. Setting often drives the characters to act in very specific manners and can illustrate and exemplify critical changes and plot points. Characters not only create the very basis of the novel itself, but also help to establish conflict and can change how we view other characters through their actions and…

DRIFTED is crime-thriller drama within a sci-fi time travel plot. The idea is very creative and imaginative. The story contains solid themes about fate, destiny, second chances and making the right life choices. There’s a lot to like about the script, but at the same time, the plot is very challenging to follow and it lacks clarification. Thus, the script would benefit from further development. First, the story begins well. The idea that a small time crook can see pieces of the future is…

Ratatouille Review Ratatouille is an extremely unique movie, with the story coming out of two writer’s minds instead of being based on a fairytale. Of course, Pixar is known for their creative minds, but this movie is a complete deviation from the norm. Rats are usually seen as disgusting and unlikable, but this movie is both a fan favorite and very well reviewed, with the characters being memorable and the tone of the movie being perfectly French. Ratatouille is a modern classic that has…

Characters within fictional narratives exist in a space that is created through elements such as the time and location, referred to as the setting of the story. These elements help to set the tone that the rest of the story will fall under.

Major themes and…

Smith’s novel NW, like Small Island, seems to be seeking to bring about a greater sense of solidarity among English subjects. Its style of development, fragmented just as is Small Island’s uses varied narration in each chapter and broken pieces of plot which the reader must gather together and it would seem that it would equally invite readers to empathize, sympathize and unite as a nation, yet this does not happen, in spite of talented writing and excellent reviews by critics.
