... a die-hard for the game. This crazy man just wants credit for giving a Barry Bonds-like player ( Wesley Snipes ) his number back. Unfortunately, the ‘fan' gives Wesley his number back by killing the player who occupied the number before him. When the baseball player's son is kidnapped by the disillusioned man, the police held the man at gun point in the stadium. When the deranged man made a move to open fire, the police gunned him down right on the ball field. My attitude toward this hostile man was that he was very baneful and my heart was lifted of many worries when he was killed. Hector gave this film two thumbs up because of its screen play and cine ...

... ends. This first movie was received with an enthusiastic round of applause. This pioneered the movie business. From this humble beginning came movies with actual plots. Of course, they got a bit longer than this first minute and half. The movie business flourished in the twenties, but when the Great Depression came along the it suffered greatly. As the economy began to pick up, so did the movie business. New genres like horror came on the scene in the early thirties. The first horror movies were Dracula directed by Todd Browning and Frankenstein directed by James Whale. One of the most popular genres of movies were screwball comedies. They usually portrayed ...

Lady Macbeth died, apparently, due to her insanity. Macbeth loses his wife, and all he has is as kingdom to rule (tyrannically), with no one by his side. In a way, he ...

"The magnitude of her resolution almost covers the magnitude of her guilt"4 At first Lady Macbeth would seem to hold a resemblance to the witches in her personality. Both pushed Macbeth to ...
