As an individual migrating from the Dominican Republic this experience better helped me get a more intimate New Yorker experience. Upon purchasing…

elements in the movie I watched “Gangs of New York”. Even though the film was very complex to understand there were some connections from what was learned in class from lecture 19 mostly, that the film represents.

New York is known as “The city that never sleeps.” Times Square is where the action happens. Known as “The center…
