Lilo and Stitch: The Seven Standards of Disney | |
Don McCullin’s photography is extremely powerful. HIs photographs have the ability to make you rethink the world we live in. I believe that photographs can be more powerful than video or any other form of media in capturing emotion. McCullin’s photographs catch your attention and pull emotions out of you. When you feel emotion when looking at a picture you know that the photographer has done his job and in this case McCullin has achieved this. | Don McCullin: Horrific Humanity Through Photography |
This is such a touching tribute to such an amazing man. In 9th grade my class read his book “Night””. It is one of the most emotional and moving books that I have ever read. Elie Wiesel went through so much in his life, but he still was a positive person that believed in the goodness of humanity. He was truly an inspiration and he will be greatly missed. | A Sage's Passing: Elie Wiesel (1928-2016) |
Lilo and Stitch is my favorite Disney movie and this article confirms why. The movie breaks the mold of the typical Disney movies. It focuses on multiple relationships and none of the relationships are romantic ones. The first relationship is between Lilo and her sister Nani. Their relationships show how powerful the bond is between siblings. Even though they don’t always get along they love each other and will be always be there for each other. The second relationship is between Lilo and Stitch. Their relationship shows that it is ok to be a little different and not always fit in. This movie really shows that even when things are not going well there are people that love you and will care for you.
