Once beautiful - still beautiful in decay. Panning along: on the gates - DANGER, KEEP OUT, UNSAFE STRUCTURE -- The gates are shaking, like someone is climbing them -- -- and then a figure drops into a view on the other side. Straightens up into a close-up. SALLY SPARROW. Early twenties, very pretty, just a bit mad, just a bit dangerous. She's staring at the house, eyes shining. Big naughty grin. SALLY Sexy! And she starts marching up the long gravel drive ... CUT TO: INT. WESTER DRUMLINS HOUSE. HALLWAY - NIGHT The big grand house in darkness, huge sweeping staircase, shuttered window, debris everywhere -- One set of shutters buckles from an impact from the inside, splinters. SALLY SPARROW, kicking her away in -- CUT TO: INT. WESTER DRUMLINS HOUSE. HALLWAY/ROOMS - NIGHT SALLY, clutching a camera. Walks from one room to another. Takes a photograph. Her face: fascinated, loving this creepy old place. Takes another photograph. CUT TO: INT. WESTER DRUMLINS HOUSE. CONSERVATORY ROOM - NIGHT In the conservatory now - the windows looking out on a darkened garden. And a patch of rotting wallpaper catches SALLY'S eye -- 2. High on the wall, just below the picture rail, a corner of wallpaper is peeling away, drooping mournfully down from the wall -- -- revealing writing on the plaster behind. Just two letters we can see - BE - the beginning of a word -- She reaches up on tiptoes and pulls at the hanging frond of wallpaper.

There is a subtle difference between “to charm” and “to seduce.” The need for fame, glory, power, money, or other objects of affection drives antagonists so blindly that they’ve no hope of regaining a consciousness about their actions. If and when they do become aware, they infrequently feel remorse.

Topics vary and the course can be repeated for credit if taken under a different emphasis. A Note from Dr. Kirchoff This reading-intensive class is an exercise in thinking about the role characters play in (and outside of) a text, paying particular attention to the rather flexible notions of heroism and villainy. Scholars have been fascinated by the notion of heroes and villains as far back as Aristotle (as he writes about this in his Poetics), and scholarly journals, conferences, and books remain devoted to the subject today; in fact, the notion of heroism has become particularly in vogue with the rebirth the superhero, thanks to a seemingly endless parade of superhero blockbuster films.

  • Blink: the Power of Thinking Without Thinking
    PENGUIN BOOKS BLINK Author, journalist, cultural commentator and intellectual adventurer, Malcolm Gladwell was born in 1963 in England to a Jamaican mother and an English mathematician father. He grew up in Canada and graduated with a degree in history from the University of Toronto in 1984. From 1987 to 1996, he was a reporter for the Washington Post, first as a science writer and then as New York City bureau chief. Since 1996, he has been a staff writer for the New Yorker magazine. His curiosity and breadth of interests are shown in New Yorker articles ranging over a wide array of subjects including early childhood development and the flu, not to mention hair dye, shopping and what it takes to be cool. His phenomenal bestseller The Tipping Point captured the world’s attention with its theory that a curiously small change can have unforeseen effects, and the phrase has become part of our language, used by writers, politicians and business people everywhere to describe cultural trends and strange phenomena.

  • Hero Or Villain?"
    IR - PERPUSTAKAAN UNIVERSITAS AIRLANGGA CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY In fictional works, in this case, interactive fictional works like video games, there are characters in the narrative, and the characters consist of protagonists and antagonists. A protagonist is described as the center of the story, the one that is close to the audience and the one who makes a decision and experience the consequences, however not necessarily the same as the hero. (Duncan, 2006). A hero is defined as the person that the audience will root and support. (Vogler, 2007). In many medias especially video games, a hero is often associated with having a strong sense of justice and always doing for the sake of greater good (GamesRadar, 2018). The opposite of a hero is a villain, in which Vogler (2007) describes it as the enemies and the one who stands against the hero, and the audience will root for their loss. Antagonist, on the other hand, is defined as someone who stands in opposition to the protagonist, who will also become the force for the protagonist to develop and move in the story, usually takes the form of villain but not necessarily has to be one (Blaisdell, 2018). From the definitions, it is certain that the protagonist, hero, antagonist, and villain, have different definitions. These definitions mean that everyone who is the center of the story is a protagonist, but not all protagonist is a hero. The same as an antagonist, who is someone that stands in opposition side of the protagonist, but not all villains are 1 SKRIPSI "HERO OR VILLAIN?"..
