...Pretty Woman: A Romantic Comedy The popular romantic comedy, Pretty Woman, is a story that shows how members of two different social classes meet and become forced to learn about each other's way of life and fall in love in the process (Garnham). Edward, (Richard Gere) is the upper-class businessman who coincidentally meets Vivian, (Julia Roberts), a lower-class prostitute, while trying to find his way back to his hotel after a fancy gathering of co-workers and other members of his elite society. After staying with Edward for a period of time, Vivian becomes assimilated into his upper-class way of life. While Vivian is learning how to fit into the upper echelons of society, Edward also learns how life is for the lower class. "Every society is marked by inequality, with some people having more money, schooling, health, and power than others. With its predictable plot, simple conflict and easy resolution, simple characters that the audience relates to, and the notion that one character saves the other, this film is the very definition of a romantic comedy. The predictable plot. This particular aspect of romantic comedies both explains their continued popularity and remains one of the hallmarks of this particular genre. Romantic comedies almost always follow the basic formula: Two people who are not supposed to be together somehow manage to fall in love. Hijinks and other mishaps ensue, they get into a huge fight, and then everything ends happily ever after (Garnham). This film...

The one I have been absolutely hooked to is Pretty Little Liars, on ABC Family. This show is a confusing drama, suspense, and thriller type of show.

...Jazz, taking its roots in African American folk music, has evolved, metamorphosed, and transposed itself over the last century to become a truly American art form. More than any other type of music, it places special emphasis on innovative individual interpretation. Instead of relying on a written score, the musician improvises. For each specific period or style through which jazz has gone through over the past seventy years, there is almost always a single person who can be credited with the evolution of that sound. From Thelonius Monk, and his bebop, to Miles Davis' cool jazz, from Dizzy Gillespie's big band to John Coltrane's free jazz; America's music has been developed, and refined countless times through individual experimentation and innovation. One of the most influential musicians in the development of modern jazz is John Coltrane. In this paper, I examine the way in which Coltrane's musical innovations were related to the music of the jazz greats of his era and to the tribulations and tragedies of his life.John William Coltrane was born in Hamlet, North Carolina, on September 23, 1926. Two months later, his family moved to High Point, North Carolina, where he lived in a fairly well-to-do part of town. He grew up in a typical southern black family, deeply religious, and steeped in tradition. Both of his parents were musicians, his father played the violin and ukulele, and his mother was a member of the church choir. For several years, young Coltrane played the clarinet...

...Pavia Washington September 28, 2010 English 102 “anyone lived in a pretty how town” The poem “anyone lived in a pretty how town” is a narrative about a town where the people only care about themselves. It’s about the passage of time and the normal things that happens as time goes on. E. E. Cummings portrays the people to be careless as implied in stanza 7. He contrast the people being selfish, line 2, stanza 2 “cared for anyone not at all” with the people being loving, line 2, stanza 4, “she laughed his joy she cried his grief”. There are many different ways to approach this poem. You can figure out the themes and meaning or talk about how Cummings ties nature to the main idea, like how he uses the seasons to make the point that the feelings of the people of the town never change and the passing of time. Lewis Turco found two themes of this poem. His first theme is “how can anyone live in a pretty town” where nothing much goes on, where people worry only about themselves although they are involved with everyone else. His next theme is that people do in fact live in towns like this one where as Turco says, “they are anyone and noone, of no particular significance except to one another on an individual basis; anyone does mean something to noone and mostpeople-both care and do not care; both love and do not love; are important to one another and are not important at all.” These themes contrast and may seem to cancel each other but they do not. They both are true. I tied...

...George Bernard Shaw’s play, Pygmalion and Gary Marshall’s film Pretty Woman both explore the theme of change and transformation based upon the myth of Pygmalion, a sculptor who disenchanted with women of his own time and decided to sculpt his ideal woman out of ivory. The social and cultural background of the two leading female characters Eliza Doolittle and Vivian Ward play a role in their desire to change their lives. Even though conforming to society’s expectations proves difficult for Vivian and Eliza, it impacts upon the way they view those from a higher social standing. This social class distinction makes the characters yearn for more in life, making their aspirations for the future stronger and clearer. Vivian and Eliza undergo successful...

...Alliteration is the repetition of a particular sound in the first syllables of a series of words or phrases. Alliteration has developed largely through poetry, in which it more narrowly refers to the repetition of a consonant in any syllables that, according to the poem's meter, are stressed, as in James Thomson's verse "Come…dragging the lazy languid Line along. Example: Alice’s aunt ate apples and acorns around August. Apostrophe is an exclamatory rhetorical figure of speech, when a speaker or writer breaks off and directs speech to an imaginary person or abstract quality or idea. In dramatic works and poetry written in or translated into English, such a figure of speech is often introduced by the exclamation "O". Example: "O western wind, when wilt thou blow That the small rain down can rain?" Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds to create internal rhyming within phrases or sentences, and together with alliteration and consonance[1] serves as one of the building blocks of verse. For example, in the phrase "Do you like blue?", the /uː/ ("o"/"ou"/"ue" sound) is repeated within the sentence and is assonant. Example: "Try to light the fire" Euphemism is a generally harmless word, name, or phrase that replaces an offensive or suggestive one.[1] Some euphemisms intend to amuse, while others intend to give positive appearances to negative events or even mislead entirely. Euphemisms are used for dissimulation, as alternatives to unpleasant topics (especially...

...Local Transport Plans: Case Study 2:1:b DEVELOPING A LOCAL GOVERNMENT TRANSPORT MASTERPLAN: CASE STUDY J. Lebo, World Bank (1999) Objectives of the case study National or state rural planning processes are often “top down”, technically sophisticated and, hence not geared to participation from local communities, those most affected. Involvement of local government is increasingly seen as being important to rural transport planning and engaging them in this process requires a balancing of the technical requirements of the process with local objectives and capacities. A Rural Transport infrastructure (RTI) planning process must be transparent and easily understood by local government planners who may have little grasp of the underpinning economics. The objective of this case study is to describe the development of a Local Government Transport Masterplan (LGTMP). 1. AN APPROACH TO LOCAL GOVERNMENT INVESTMENT PLANNING In most developing countries, decentralization has meant that local governments are increasingly made fully responsible for the provision of local services, including health, education, as well as local roads. Concurrently, national or state road planning processes are often "top-down" and technically sophisticated, as well as ignoring the potential for local governments and communities to participate. The involvement of local governments, however, has been shown to be a critical element to the success of the RTI planning process. In practice, however, most local governments...

...changed, and this is especially true for romantic films, which in the last few years have become cultural product of consumption that calm the thirst of emotions and entertains audiences. We are been living in a decade where materialism, coldness, and convenience stands out compared to previous decades. A clear example of this are the romantic films of the 90s compared to the present romantic films. For example, when we look at the 1990 movie Pretty Woman, we can see that there is a gallant man, and the conquest and elegance prevails. However, when we look at the 2007 movie Good Luck Chuck, we can realize that there is nothing alike in this romantic film, or in this decade. It was only after comparing the courtly manners of the man, the intensity of the sensual scenes, and the song soundtracks of the two films, that it can be determined that there are several differences and similarities between the two romantic films. At first glance, comparing the 90s romantic films to the present romantic films, we can clearly appreciate that in the movie Pretty Woman, the character Edward (Richard Gere), demonstrates a high level of elegance and gentleman in how he treats Vivian (Julia Roberts), speaks to her, and how he expresses himself. In addition, how could anyone forget the scene where he puts a diamond necklace on her neck, and tells her how beautiful is. In contrast, the male character in Good Luck Chuck, Dr. Charlie Logan (Dane Cook), seems to consider that this formality in the twenty-first...
