    The following is an analysis of three scenes from recent films that raise philosophical questions in today’s society. These questions can be answered in numerous ways, none of which are incorrect, since everyone has a different standpoint on things.

    Nicholson’s Nihilism Partly because I’m a Batman enthusiast, I noticed, from early on in this film, that a nexus existed between Nicholson’s role as J.P. McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and his later casting as the joker in Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman.

He is arguably one of the greatest superheroes ever created. He fights crime and faces some of the most insane villains in comic book history.

    The hermit set out of camp at midnight, carrying his backpack and his bag of break-in tools, and threaded through the forest, rock to root to rock, every step memorized. Not a boot print left behind. It was cold and nearly moonless, a fine night for a raid, so he hiked about an hour to the Pine Tree summer camp, a few dozen cabins spread along the shoreline of North Pond in central Maine.
