Our reaction to a hostile person will make a difference in what their next reaction will be. “You can decide to ignite the fire or put it out”, I am a strong believer in this philosophy. Luis had a lot of work waiting for him so he raped things up and took me to the coding area to introduce me to the coder…

It explores dreamlike states and impossible ideas such as the pulling of a grand piano. The spacial continuity is disjointed through the involvement of various spaces of action such as when the woman opens the door from a living room onto a beach, which is entirely impossible and lacks reality. The characters consistently look off screen or directly into the camera, breaking the “fourth wall”, which subverted the golden rule of classical narrative and violated the illusion that the viewer was…

Tangerine, Luis Cruz fits the mythological archetype of mentor because he aids, is a positive figure to, and trains Paul. Proving to be a mentor, Luis aids Paul. Aiding him means to help him in some way, shape, or form. For instance, when Paul is scared of Erik and Arthur, Luis helps him by saying, “I wouldn’t be scared they’re punks.” And you shouldn’t be either”(Bloor 277). Although Luis tells him not to be scared he also tells him why not. In this way, Bloor makes it clear that Luis is…
