Why Blame Hollywood? It is a safe conjecture to say that everyone has been witness to some sort of violence throughout their lives. Some may have witnessed it in person‚ and others have only witnessed it through media such as movies or television. Most of the time nobody has any problem with it at all. Until they are somehow affected by it‚ that is. As soon as that happens‚ they try to find someone to place the blame on. In the case of a movie‚ for example‚ if someone sees a movie that has an excessive

on there that has the most meaning would The Doors song "The End". This song not only set the mood for the scene waiting in Saigon and the move as a whole but is also used to foreshadow the death of Coronal Kurtis. Mr. Coppola‚ the director of the film‚ was a genius for picking this song to represent the movie. It not only fits the movie with the sounds of helicopter but the words alone have significant meaning to the movie. Along with it serving as a premise for the movie‚ Mr. Coppola plays with

The Maltese Falcon is an award winning masterpiece‚ from the 1941 movie to the well written book. The movie is similar to the book in many different ways.

The film is supposed to be about Buddhism‚ and don’t get me wrong it was‚ but I figured when I heard it was a religion filled movie I thought " oh no another boring movie" but I was sadly mistaken.
