Why Saving Private Should Be Considered a Classic WWII Movie Imagine how it would feel to be trapped behind enemy lines with no communication to base. During the Second World War, this was a reality for paratroopers during D-Day. A movie that tells that story of a paratrooper behind enemy lines is Saving Private Ryan (Spielberg). However, there is a twist to not only being trapped behind enemy lines, but having men come to extract the private to tell him his brothers are dead. Saving Private…

On September 28th of 2015, NASA officially confirmed liquid water existing on Mars. Water is pretty common here on Earth, so why is this such a big deal? The big deal is that this is one of the biggest discoveries in Mars history. The discovery of liquid water, provides limitless options from colonization, to the fact that there may be life there now. But how did the media impact this disclosure? Normally space discoveries never get extremely popular. I thought to myself what was so different…

of seemingly grim proportions, attracted a large amount of public attention to McCarthy, so much so that he decided to make this book the first of a trilogy. The novel was such a success that it was adapted as a movie starring Penelope Cruz and Matt Damon. The movie was released to the public in 2000.

many hope to be famous. This is at the heart of why Los Angeles is known as the land of dreams. One difference between living in LA and living in another city like Dallas is that the guy you see in line at Starbucks who “looks like Matt Damon,” actually is Matt Damon. Some preachers take the liberty to mention names of celebrities when addressing some controversial movie or quote that has gotten public attention while making a strong spiritual point in their sermon. The problem with that while…

Two Oscar nominees, two very special movies about space and space adventures. “The Martian” and “Apollo 13” are one of the best movies about the world beyond the earth. They both express precisely the emotions of the astronauts travelling in the space and of the rest of the world, relatives, friends and crew members of each mission into the space. These two movies are quite different but still have a lot in common. “Apollo 13” is about seventh manned mission in American Apollo space program and…

The Departed is a remake of a 2002 film Hong Kong action movie Infernal Affairs. The movies are both based on a real-life Irish American Gangster Whitey Bulger, who was captured on June 22, 2011.

I went into my reading of The Martian with the hopes of learning a bit about life on Mars, as well as giving myself an excuse to go see Matt Damon on the big screen after. While I wish Weir was a bit less jargon-heavy, I was able to figure out most of the science being…

Alaine de Botton, author of “Status Anxiety,” believes that because humorists can say things that other people will not, they are there to convey messages that are too dangerous to state directly. Humorists, like ones on Saturday Night Live and in movies, use comedy and jokes to bring about difficult messages. Saturday Night Live (SNL) often uses satirical…

What do you picture when you hear the word “lawyer?” You most likely see people like Michael Clayton, Atticus Finch, Tom Cruise or even Matt Damon. You think of the amazing cases about civil rights. You imagine the money they make from taking down the “big” corporations in court. What I’m trying to say is people who are on the outside of law offices see the mask that is put up by studios and media. But in reality the majority of defense lawyers know but only one truth: that they will struggle…
