Last set of Presentations

I think that all of the presentations were well did. I got to see how creative our class is and how we all have learned a lot about cowboys and Indians throughout this class. In someway all westerns are tied together, either in an idea of a character, plot, or even same scenerio.

Group class presentations

Today aside from our group, Emily and Erika presented. The movie that they watched was Tombstone. It was about the Earp brothers and how they moved to Tombstone to better themselves and basically take over the town and profit from it. They have a run in with the cowboys that already live there and there is a shoot out.
It was basically the typical western but it seemed to have moved at a fast pace. It was kind of like our movie in ways too, Unforgiven.

Group meeting 2

Sunday my group and I met at the library to finish up our presentation. We polished up our information and also did our powerpoint. We went through what each of us would say while presenting.

Movie project meeting

Today we met for the first time in our group. We discussed our dates that we are meeting and what we plan to put in the presentation. We are getting things worked out!

Unforgiven- Movie project

My partners and I haven't met yet for our discussions about the movie. All we have is the movie. I watched the movie and it's awesome! Even though I didn't expect for it to be, because I thought it was just going to have Clint Eastwood and he was going to be the main physical purpose of the movie. Unlike the good, the Bad and the Ugly, I think that his character was more rough and tough. Great movie and and unexpected ending.

paper three topic...

I really don't know what I am going to do this paper on. I was thinking about writing about Victors journey and what he accomplished without really knowing that he was going to..... I don't know. I thought it may be too broad. I also had wanted to write about the appearance of fire BUT I think their are too many instances that could be mentioned and I don't really know which ones are the most important. Sooo..... It's still up in the air!

Churchhill Review( Got the syllabus confused and did the Iowa interview first!)

This article was kind of interesting. It allowed me to see the films that Native Americans have been a part of and the roles that they have been given in movies. I read about how the Indians were not able direct for a period of time. That's sad. With that said I am getting pretty tired of Westerns and the same basic plot line....
