The queue to buy the tickets was quite long. When I arrived to the Bayou…

Transcendentalism was idealized in the 19th century, and lead to the creation of other types of writing genres still used today. This philosophical movement,…

Today’s global governance institutions were built around the emergence of the United States of America as a superpower in the mid-1940s. It was this mantle that caused the United States, for whatever reason, to assume responsibility for the reconstruction of nations both in the west and in the east following the devastating effects of World War II.

The movie has marvelously captured human emotions as the protagonist rides up and down his life’s roller coaster. The movie…
