Movie titles give a good deal as to what the audience’s attention should be focused on while watching the movie. However, unlike most movies, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986) hints that the viewer will be most intrigued by the character the movie is named after Ferris Bueller. However, the most interesting, multilayered, and relatable character is the supporting male character Cameron Frye. He is considered a supporting character because although he has a complex back-story of his own, his story and development cannot exist independently from Ferris Bueller’s story as he is the one who helps lead Frye to finding his own identity.

In the beginning of the movie, he is seen to be sick in bed alone with nobody to care for him. Frye makes it clear to Bueller that his relationship with his family is almost…

When I was first given this assignment, I had trouble deciding who to write the paper on. For years, I’ve fought a mental battle, trying to prevent people from influencing me— I want to have my own opinions and beliefs. But I realized that the influence didn’t need to concern views or interests. It could be about how somebody had influenced my behaviors, my coping mechanisms, my view of myself. I knew who to write my paper on. An important influence in my life has been my older brother, Matthew…

went there.’ (Page 45). This recalls the parable of the wedding feast (Matthew 22:1-14), in which, lacking invited guests, the king sends his soldiers out to the highways to gather revelers. This allusion is resumed when Nick states that "I [Nick] had been actually invited" (Page 45). The parable concludes with the reflection that "many are called, but few are chosen" (Matthew 22:14). At the party, one of the girls states that Gatsby "‘He doesn’t want any trouble with ANYbody.’" (Page 48). Jesus…

Matthew 7, in addition to emphasizing Jesus’ strong historical/cultural message on the Mount, makes use of some very poignant and effective literary devices to enhance and emphasize the message.

Jesus uses a variety of metaphors, personifications, and parables to illustrate his message to and to teach the crowd in a coherent way that resonates with them. In verse 15, Jesus makes the notable comparison between…

This paper will incorporate biblical references as well as scholarly commentary to define, identify…
