Victor Muscia Holocaust Class 8/2/05 Night By: Elie Wiesel I believe "Night" shows the religious view of the Holocaust and how many Jews including Elie lost their faith in God while going through such the nightmare of Auschwitz and the other camps.

The Black Dalhia Worst Film Essay
Snickers really satisfy; “The Black Dahlia” does not!

For about 90 minutes, it moves at a fast pace, the movie is
