...Movie Analysis of I Am Sam The movie I found interesting and that has taught me about different forms of communication and how they were used is I AM Sam by Kristine Johnson and Jessie Nelson. I really enjoyed watching this movie and studying the different ways people communicate to each other. While watching this movie, I have learned how two people can relate to each through different forms of communication. I saw how two people can communicate using nonverbal communication and verbal communication. Also, while watching this movie, I have learned how someone’s feelings can be hurt by other’s actions. For instance, I saw how Sam and his daughter used nonverbal communication throughout the movie to communicate with each other. I also saw how Sam’s lawyer learned how to communicate with her son, which Sam showed her. Sam’s lawyer just needed to take the time to listen to her son. A particular scene from the film, I Am Sam, characterizes how characters show nonverbal and relationship element of communication. In the movie, I Am Sam, there are two key elements of communication that I found interesting. Let’s take a look at the two key elements; Relation Dialectics and Eye Contact throughout the film I Am Sam. Relation Dialectics is the first communication I am going to talk about. I found the following while watching the movie: closeness and openness, autonomy and connection, and novelty and predictability (DeVito, 2009, 2007, pp.220-221). The first scene that used relation...

...I Am Sam SHS 270, Fall 2012 Scott Farnan, 668300995, sfarnan2@illinois.edu A Village of Love I Am Sam is a 2001 American drama film directed by Jessie Nelson and produced by Edward Zwick. The movie is not based off of anything but the title is a quote from Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs and Ham; the screenplay was written by Jessie Nelson and Kristie Johnson. This film is about a man with a disability who fights for custody rights of his seven-year-old daughter. The character in the film with a cognitive disability is Sam Dawson. Sam is a very good looking man who is polite, loving and has a comforting personality. Sam’s politeness is shown during the movie while he works at the local Starbucks and Pizza Hut. He always has a smile on his face and tells the customer that what they ordered was “a wonderful choice” (Zwick & Nelson, 2001). He fights for custody of his daughter because she means the world to him and he does everything he can to make her happy. In addition, he helps Rina, his lawyer, with her personal problems and comforts one of Rina’s patients in her office when she is upset (Zwick & Nelson, 2001). Sam is the protagonist and his protagonist nature is evident throughout the film. For instance, the movie title includes his name, signifying his role as the central character. In addition, Sam is shown in every scene, the plot line is centered on his life and his father-daughter relationship with Lucy progresses with significant details. Sam’s actions, due to...

...most intense. In response to fin de siècle anxieties of a social revolution in which gender stereotypes could be overhauled, gothic writers, it is claimed, sought to reassert cultural and gender norms – a reassertion which inevitably resulted in the oppression of women. In view of such contemporary analysis, it is thus all too tempting to offer a sweeping judgement of gothic literature as victimising, oppressive and misogynistic; Dracula’s “victims” are all “unambiguously women[1]”, Poe victimises through an “idealised and dehumanising image of women[2]”, while Carter is a “pseudo feminist” who merely “reinforces patriarchal views” with her “pornographic” writing[3]. Yet such views are largely artificial, and are primarily based on potted summaries of the above works, rather than a closer textual analysis. If one takes the definition of a victim as a being who is subject to the successful predatory actions of another, and who is resultantly devoid of power[4], then such primitive analysis in blindly labelling “all women as victims of the beastly male[5]” becomes flawed. Read in the context of Carter’s ironic foreword[6] to Perrault’s Short Stories, a deeper exploration reveals women as being willingly complicit in adopting the role of victim. Such complicity can be further explained through the...

...Deborah Mager Dr. Bliss Engl. 101 11/22/11 Homelessness Plan There are so many children who are homeless each year with their families. Lucy Smith is one such child. She lives in a car with her mother after they lost their home. This past August, when the back to school lists came out, her mother couldn’t even afford to get her all the supplies she needs. Children at school make fun of her for being homeless and Lucy’s teacher kept asking her where her supplies were. Every morning, they go into a store to use the bathroom to get ready for the day. At least three nights a week, they try and go to a friend’s house to take a shower and wash their clothes. Her mother is looking for a job, but it’s hard to get hired when they don’t always have the cleanest clothes and an address. Lucy is just one child affected by homelessness, but there are many more, just like her. Unemployment is a major factor in homeless families ending up on the streets. The U.S Department of Labor claims that in 2010 there were at least 9.8 million families with an unemployed member. When the economy crashed, many people lost their jobs or received reduced hours. For many families, that caused them to get behind in paying rent or the mortgage. It was especially bad for the minimum wage workers who were already on the verge of homelessness before they lost their jobs. Another problem contributing to homelessness is the mortgage crisis. A Medill School report found that in October 2007, Illinois ranked...

...ROBERT FROST Born on the day of March 26, 1874, in San Francisco, California, Robert Lee Frost was one of America’s most famous poets. Frost received four Pulitzer Prizes before he died in 1963. The first one in 1924 for New Hampshire: A Poem with Notes and Grace Notes, then in1931 for Collected Poems, in 1937 for A Further Range, and the last on in 1943 for A Witness Tree. Married to Elinor Miriam White, who was his co-valedictorian at high school, he lived in various locations throughout his life, in San Francisco, California for the first ten years of his life, then moved to New England where he lived most of his years; he also lived in Great Britain for three years where he met Edward, T. E. Hulme and Ezra Pound. Pound would become the first American to write a review of Frost's work; it was also in England that Frost wrote some of his best work. Robert Frost attended Dartmouth College, where he stayed for a little over a semester, and also Harvard University for two years. Robert Frost grew up in a state of turmoil. From his tumultuous childhood right up until his death, Frost was a character who could speak at Harvard and live on a farm in New Hampshire. He could dazzle the brightest students with poetic ingenious, but boil life down to, “It’s hard to get into this world and hard to get out of it. And what’s in between doesn’t make much sense. If that sounds pessimistic, let it stand”. Robert Frost’s poems “Mending Wall” and “The Road Not Taken” both exemplify the struggle...

...Factoring The sport of skydiving was born in the 1930s soon after the military began using parachutes as a means of deploying troops. Today, skydiving is a popular sport around the world. With as little as 8 hours of ground instruction, first-time jumpers can be ready to make a solo jump. Without the assistance of oxygen, skydivers can jump from as high as 14,000 feet and reach speeds of more than 100 miles per hour as they fall toward the earth. Jumpers usually open their parachutes between 2000 and 3000 feet and then gradually glide down to their landing area. If the jump and the parachute are handled correctly, the landing can be as gentle as jumping off two steps. Making a jump and floating to earth are only part of the sport of skydiving.

This kind of skydiving takes skill and practice, and teams are not always successful in their attempts. The amount of time a skydiver has for a free fall depends...
