'Hereditary' - A Movie Review
I am still trying to re-adjust my jaw from having it fall to the ground so many times. Trailers. You either love them or hate them. Some give away too much, while others hide twists so well that you swear you walked into the wrong theater.

Media Portrayal of Disney Princesses
Disney has come a long way over the years as they have made one movie after another. One of the most popular items sold of all time is the Disney Princess Line which started being sold in 2001. Children all around the world love to watch the many adventures of all the princesses. Through the princess' songs and journeys, children were taught many lessons and looked up to the princesses. But each film showed women being housewives, always cleaning a house and never sticking up for themselves. They just waited to be rescued by a prince whom they fall in love with. When we look all the way back at Snow White from 1937, she is depicted as a meek young woman who cannot fend for herself. Sure she keeps the house for seven little dwarfs, but why would she trust an old woman who she never met in her life? It wasn’t until 1998 with Mulan, a fierce, brave woman who fought for her own, that the Disney Princess Line began to change. According to an article, "The Problem With Disney Princesses," “parents and feminists would say that they [the princesses] are not good role models.” In this paper, I will show how Disney has changed these princesses from love blind women to women who can fight for themselves.

'All Quiet on the Western Front'—Food for Sustenance
All Quiet on the Western Front, by Erich Maria Remarque, is considered the greatest war novel of all time. The perspective of the story takes place from a soldier on the enemy side of World War I. Readers get to walk through the life of a young soldier, Paul, on his perspective of the events of the war. Paul and many other soldiers go through the difficulties of war as they face many near-death experiences. This book really shows how war can eat away someone's sanity through the traumatizing effects when watching your friends die and killing a person who you don’t even know. This affects Paul the most because he doesn’t know how to put his feelings into words. As the events go by in the story, rather than staying at home with his family, Paul would rather be in the war fighting so he can ignore his feelings and thoughts. This section in the book makes one wonder if all the soldiers felt this way. The soldiers don’t have much of anything in the war to make them happy, but a quote which stands out from the story is, “Now they have the two things a soldier needs for contentment, good food and good rest” (138). A soldier never get much food and it’s amazing the soldiers ever get to eat. Food for sustenance is a very important theme in the story of All Quiet on the Western Front and it becomes a major aspect of the soldier's lives while they fight.
