(not an argument)2. in Flannery O’Conner’s” A Good Man is hard to findthe contrast of good and evil is not as evident as it appears. (not specific—doesn’t take a chance)3. The movie, Magnolia (1999), shows us the tragedy which is concealed in every relationship of people, concurrences of strange accident, and missed karmas. (sentence structure needs smoothing so it flows)4. Events that happen in life are not by chance, they occur all the timeand for reasons. (no argument, no debate, no lit element—sounds like a proverb)5. “Babel” talks about a cohesive sequence of events showing different societies in the world and how they handle problems in their own culture. (summary only-lit element?--)6. Seven Samurai deals with seven different men, who carry out a mission not because they want to, but because they were asked. (summary only)7.A mother wanting to get mother-friend like relationship with daughter. (not an argument); Fragment;8. Although Barry from Punch Drunk Love is a good guy who is searching for love, he is not too dissimilar from the owner of the furniture store who is corrupt and owns a sex phone line.9.The movie, Punch Drunk Love, is a man’s strenuous journey toregain his ability to fall in love, which once was abusively stolen away from him. (a summary) Barry? Character! 11.The theme of the movie focuses on the issue of hatred and racism within our society.

This has led to the destruction of women’s confidence and self respect. (racism)18. American Beauty is not just a movie, but it is realization of American Culture and it is teaching us how to discover Beauty in every aspect of life. Pretty darn good!19. Crash is a movie that teaches us that the color of your skin doesn’tmatter, human beings should all be treated equally. Obvious/summary20.A Clockwork Orange portrays the ironic transition of a psychopathic rapist who seeks a new start, but is not given the opportunity.21. The theme throughout the multiple mini storylines in the movie “Crash” each has irony in common. Pretty good6.
