Movie (Hitlerjunge) analysis


a) What did you think of the movie?


The movie was really a great film. The theme it takes about is so interesant and it has a kind of humor which really is so difficult to make because the movie theme is about and the epoch and situation Europe was living in the moment. The way it developes and the special form the life of this guy, (the principal of the movie), is showed is practically perfect, it maintains the audience in a constant concentration and penetration into the movie.


b) Would you be willing to deny your beliefs (religious/political, etc) in order to survive like Sully did?


Yes, I would deny my beliefs in order to survive like Sully did. Because is most important having our life in a first position than having beliefs and ideologys over it. Also i have my family and the persons who surround my life that love me and i know that if i die they will be very affected while if some of my family members dye and anybody that surrounds me and i love dye i would be very affected for a very long time evenmore the crisis knowing the person died because some beliefs and ideologies.

“LIVIN´ON THE EDGE” AEROSMITH - Song and presentation material

Song can be heared in ------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8mdq6fzzYM

There's somethin' wrong

with the world today

I don't know what it is

Something's wrong with our eyes

We're seein' things in a different way

And God knows it ain't his

It shore ain't no surprise

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

There's somethin' wrong

with the world today

The light bulb's gettin dim

There's meltdown in the sky

If you can judge a wise man

By the color of his skin

Then mister you're a better man than I

[Chorus:] Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself from fallin'

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself at all

Livin' on the edge

You can't stop yourself from fallin

'Livin' on the edge

Tell me what you think

about your sit-u-a-tion

Complication - aggravation

Is getting to you

If chicken little tells you

that the sky is fallin

'Even if it wasn't would you

still come crawlin

'Back againI bet you would my friend

Again & again & again & again & again

Tell me what you think

about your sit-u-a-tion

Complication - aggravation

Is getting to you

If chicken little tells you

that the sky is fallin

'Even if it was would you

still come crawlin

'Back againI bet you would my friend

Again & again & again & again

Something right with the world today

And everybody knows it's wrong

But we can tell 'em no orwe could let it go

But I'd would rather be a hanging on

[Chorus] Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus] Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself at all

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself from fallin'



"Livin' on the Edge" is a song by American hard rock band Aerosmith. It was released in 1993 as the second single from the band's commercially successful album Get a Grip. The song was written by Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, and Mark Hudson. In “Livin’ on the Edge” Mark talks about his experiences with rocks’ elite through monologues, funny anecdotes, impersonations and lots of music. The stories will leave you in stitches and the songs will keep playing in your head. His colorful outfits, colorful facial hair and colorful wit will hook you right from the start.
The song received much critical acclaim and won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for the year 1993. The popular video for the song earned the band a Viewer's Choice award at the 1993 MTV Video Music Awards.




What the Critics Say
Get a Grip turned out to be one of Aerosmith's most contrived and contemptible records, but fans never would have known from advance EP Livin' on the Edge, which whips out two extra, exceptional treats. First, two stripped-down demos of the apocalyptic, Yardbirds-referencing "Livin' on the Edge" bring out the quintet's individual contributions much clearer than the glossed-over album version. And the dilapidating finale fits the song better as well.

OUR OPINION
We decide to choose this song because we can understand many things that are wrong in the world, and bring some possibilities that not are explicit in the song, to solve these big problems. In the same way with the lyric we can see some of the reasons of why the world has these changes. We Think that It´s a good song that represent many feelings of the modern society, for example don’t see beyond of the reality, that have like consequence that when people solve problems don’t bring the best solution. On the other hand we need to learn to understand the other people and their beliefs, and the song show the importance of this aspect. Like a consequence of this discrimination, we can see many wars in the world for this reason, then is very important to learn to accept the other people with their beliefs and probably, we can life in peace and in a better world. Furthermore we need to fight with the racism, other method to discriminate, because in some cases we offend people without realizing, and this probable cause that the world doesn’t evolucionate at maximum. To conclude we need to understand some things of the world, and learn to tolerate to all the people, and if we can do that, we can life in a better world.

Paragraph - photocopies 36.


Hyper parenting may be predominating as a life style between pushy parents and children. First of all, the parents in majority, are thinking that overstimulating children at general in all the ages by using special toys and classic music would be an excellent tool for developing their ideas and creativeness. To begin, the parents should leave the childs develop their own ideas and be them, the ones who discover the life by adquiring new experiences day by day in a cotidianity life. Also, the parents have to recognized the children are getting such a high level of intelligence leaving behind healthy activities like sports, theater, physical education, other kinds of music, movies and others that also give a child a better quality for understanding the world and its changes. In addition, parents most leave that thougth of feeling pressured for educating their childs in a good way, they just have to let them go and live their lifes in a free way. Thus, hyper parenting brings serious consequences in a future such as no capacity for socializating with new people and autism.

ARTICLE - Latin America Is Priority on Bush Trade Agenda.


By Anthony DePalma, New York Times ~ December 18, 2000

http://www.1worldcommunication.org/globalization.htm#Latin%20America%20Is%20Pr

Summary

This article as you can understand, was published in the New York Times in December 18 of the 2000 year. By the time when President elected George W. Bush considered the western part of the world an opportunitie for making in his first year, Latin America a trade and foreign policy priority. He said by the 2005 year that a free trade agreement of the Americas would be signed. This proposal would make a group of 34 of the countries in North, Central and South America into what President Clinton once said would be "the world's largest market. In the process of negotiating, Bush have been dealing with some strong opposition at the agreement. In examples there are latin american nations such as Brazil that fear that labor and environmental standards attached to a trade deal could be used as protectionist shields by american businesses that feel threatened by latin american competition. In a certain manner Bush used the "bad" Clinton administration for using it as an advantage for his campaign. In a conclusion, during the campaign, Mr. Bush talked about developing a special relationship with Mexico, which is one of the few foreign countries he has ever visited. Referring more over to all of Latin America, he said he would "look south, not as an afterthought but as a fundamental commitment of my presidency."
