American History X analysis

In the event, one black man escaped with Derek`s truck without being injured. The incident causes Derek to be jailed. Also, Danny encounters violent act in the school bathroom when he found a white male being tortured by three black guys (Smith 250). One of the black guys believed that he had been set up by the white guy because he was involved in cheating. Danny rescues him and encourages him to rise to the occasion when he encounters mistreatment or torture. Murray felt offended by Danny`s work which he felt was not right, and Danny accepted his faults and his principal told him he would be his next history tutor. The class is then named “American History X” in which the movie derives its name.

The second meaningful part of the movie is when Danny founds a white boy being bullied and harassed by three black boys in the school bathroom because he informed the teacher that one of them was involved in cheating. He rescues him and tells him to be always courageous and be up against mistreatment (Smith 250). The third meaningful part of the movie is when we are taken through the flashbacks describing Derek`s journey as a white kid in the suburban to a revenge-seeking person. Many circumstances that he came across black men made him have a negative attitude towards them as a result of the mistreatment they were doing to the white race. His father was also a victim of the acts perpetrated by the black men (Laura and Finley 230).

But his perception changed when he interacted with Lamont in jail because he understood that not all black men were evil doers. He was against white supremacist because he became enlightened that revenge against racism was going to facilitate the mistreatment and suffering between the two races rather than providing a solution to the problem. Super-Size Me The movie is about a man named Spurlock who is above average physically as described by three health professionals, a nutritionist, as well as a personal trainer (Spurlock 34). Also, he was also expected to consume items found in McDonald`s menu. After the end of the experiment in thirty days, Spurlock had gained enough weight and became “Supersized” accompanied by deterioration in his health.

The first meaningful section of the film is when Spurlock decided to be part and parcel of the experiment (Spurlock 34). He was willing and ready to be used in the experiment to test the effects of spree eating of McDonald`s diet to his body weight and health despite the repercussions that could arise from the experiment. The second meaningful part of the film is when Spurlock followed norms to govern him when consuming meals from the McDonald`s menu. This is because they are free from personal views or opinions (Spurlock 34). Therefore, the strictness in rules and regulations enhances the validity, as well as the reliability of the experiment. Furthermore, the existence or the utilization of proper research design enables the accumulation of reliable data that can be interpreted to support the validity and reliability of the research study.

According to John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth on attachment theory, they suggested that the most important thing is secure, as well as a trusting connection that exist between two individuals. In the case of a mother and her infant, the bond between them contributes significantly to the development, as well as the well-being of the two parties. She is also unsure how she will adjust to her new environment. Both emotions become dominant she struggles to control the two emotions. She is not willing to forget the feelings because they are part and parcel of her life as she encounters with the new environment (Keltner and Ekman 30). All the characters, as well as locations in the film, are figurative. Therefore, representing different sensations.

The last meaningful section of the film is the utilization of a complex connection of images, as well as sound to enhance and facilitate the subject matter in the film. The film has also utilized humor for three categories of people, young and older children, as well as adults. It is important that the film highlights the value of each emotion as metaphorically represented in the movie (Keltner and Ekman 30). The four parts are deeply connected since they portray how reality or meaning in life can be represented symbolically. This is important because the five emotions are part and parcel of our everyday life. District 9 This is a dramatic film based on alien creatures that arrived in Johannesburg in a spaceship named “prawn” since the spaceship resembled a cross between a grasshopper, as well as lobster (Rieder 45).

The characters in the film include a bureaucrat called Van der Merwe who is the head of District 9, the location occupied by the aliens. The relocation of the aliens was the idea of Van der Merwe. In the end, he is infected by the alien virus and end up becoming friends with one of the intelligent aliens called Christopher Johnson. The alien plans to go back to the spaceship to assist his people who were starving and suffering. The second meaningful part in the film is the relocation of aliens in District 9. This represented the relocation of Cape whites in District 6 in Cape Town, South Africa (Rieder 45). This led to their dominance in the region since they occupied most homes, as well as businesses in the area.

Van der Merwe was a symbolic representation of the white South Africans of the Dutch origin. The third meaningful section of this film entails the relocation of the aliens by signing the consent form by Van der Merwe. This is demonstrated by the relocation of Dutch in District 6 in Cape Town than led to the acquisition of resources such as land, houses, and businesses which enabled white South Africans to accumulate wealth compared to local South Africans. As a result, this brought the apartheid system that facilitated racial segregation in South Africa. Also, the relocation of aliens as led by Van der Merwe through the signing of the consent form that led to his plight showed how local Africans suffered from the hands of the whites in South Africa as they pushed for reforms for equal access of resources and opportunities for both the whites and blacks in South Africa (Rieder 45).
