Attachment as Precursor for Exploration
Attachment as Precursor for Exploration From attachment research, we have the classifications of secure, avoidant, and ambivalent/resistant organized attachment in children and corresponding classifications of secure, dismissing, and preoccupied attachment in adults.

Contrast of to Kill a Mockingbird Film and Book
One huge difference was the absence of Aunt Alexandra. Atticus' sister, Alexandra, was the thorn in Scout's side throughout the book. She always wanted Scout to act more like a lady. Towards the end, she became more like a mother in soothing Scout and trying to reassure her that Jem was not dead. I think Aunt Alexandra was a huge part of the story, and I think they should have kept her in the movie.

Romeo and Juliet: 1968 Vs. 1996 Films
The essential visual differences in the film prove to be complete opposites. The 1968 version by Franco Zeffirelli, depicts a traditional Romeo and Juliet. There was nothing visually stunning about the accustomed Renaissance setting that was doused in neutral colors. Costuming was accurate and conventional for the time. In general this adaptation stays truer to the way Shakespeare had intended. In the 1996 version by Baz Luhrmann, the story of Romeo and Juliet is portrayed

Has Technologies Birth to Film and Photography Played a Vital Role in the Destruction of Art in Its Traditional Sense, or Has Art Naturally Adapted into Other Criteria as a Liberal Movement?
The definition of art is a creative production that can vary on its materials, this is a highly generalised definition as there are other things to consider which define art, but these materials in particular would be my focus and whether such modern formats as photography and film are one. Many would consider sculpture and theatre forms or styles of art to a degree. This is most likely for the reason that they inflict some

The Persecution of Women in the Films Blackmail and Frenzy Through the Use of Sound and Language
The issue of female persecution throughout many of Hitchcock’s films has been fiercely contested, none more so than the controversial issue of assault and the attempted rape of a woman. Views that Hitchcock represents the archetypal misogynist are supported, Modelski suggesting that his films invite “his audience to indulge their most sadistic fantasies against the female” (18).

Shakespeare on Film-Observations
Shakespeare On Film 02/10/04 Hamlet 20002 Observations It was a difficult movie to sit through. It is not because the movie is inherently bad but because of my own neurosis. The works of Shakespeare, in my humble estimation, are not meant to be modernized. Modern settings, along with modern stylization detract from the original beauty of the work. It is illogical to watch Polonius giving fatherly advice to the young Ophelia in a penthouse
