Hamilton Extra Credit Assignment There is a vast array of things that I have learned through watching this film; from the writing‚ production‚ casting‚ and ultimately making it to Broadway let alone succeeding on Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda’s idea for creating Hamilton stems from an autobiography he read about Alexander Hamilton while on vacation. Flash forward to 2009‚ Miranda sings only one song that has been written for Hamilton when performing at the White House. Motivation and the creative

D.) THE PROGRESSION 1.) Parallel Points I.) Scarface - Tony’s rise to power is a notable rags-to-riches story‚ only that it involves drugs and dead bodies. The dark and criminalized American Dream was a strongly implemented backbone of the story‚ wherein an immigrant comes to the US to find his fortune and future. Tony eventually succeeds for a moment‚ but when his judgement and pure unluckiness started to overwhelm him‚ he became a cautionary tale of excesses and greed II.) The Godfather - The story

When it comes to reviewing films‚ the phrase ‘There’s nothing like this’ or ‘It’s completely unique’ is often overused and misused. In Boyhood’s situation‚ that same phrase is perfectly applicable – there really is nothing quite like Boyhood and it’s concept.

In society today movies are just something people watch for enjoyment but they never take a second and look at the real message behind the movie. Each movie has a different message and anyone can find it.

Now‚ her modern influence starts changing the way Pleasantville citizens think‚ as well as changing the landscape from black and white to technicolor. The most important part of this movie is the eponymous setting. “No one is homeless in Pleasantville. It’s just not what it’s like.” Pleasantville is perfect. Well‚ not perfect‚ it’s “swell”.

In 1829‚ Sir Robert Peel created the Metropolitan Police when he served as Home Secretary of England. He created the first modern police force‚ the Metropolitan Police in London. According to Peel‚ the real key for policing is "the police are the people and the people are the police (Wikipedia 2010).” It was his belief that prevention of crime could be accomplished without intruding into the lives of citizens. He set about nine principles that still seem to be true and useful in the present day
