My Review of The Elephant Man

The movie The Elephant Man is a powerful and touching. I at first was not so pleased with the sight of John Merrick but through out the movie the sight of him became a regular and accepting figure. The attitude of John Merrick influences a movie and the audience speaking for myself, because his way of being is contradicting everything he lives through its just amazing. I don't believe an attitude like John Merricks can ever exist. The scenes through the movie are mind bottling and made me wonder if the way Merrick was treated was humane, yet people described him to be inhumane or an animal. Men like Bytes and the Night Porter quickly I gained sense of hatred for the type of doings the men would do this just being an overall affect from an excellent movie. I feel if the movie has the capability to feel a emotions than the movie has done its job and The Elephant Man did so several times. The movie is an instant classic because it can really have an affect on the viewers and it can do much good to the uprise of Bullying in todays environments.

My Name is John Merrick

Arriving the first day at the hospital and meeting Dr. Treves was an odd occurrence. I had no idea of what to expect and no idea why i was there. Being surrounded by so many people and all eyes of me is only natural to me now but being spoken to in a room alone has made me question my abilities to speak for myself. I was nervous when having a talk with Treves that i was not able to say a single thing nor did want to say anything to him. The main nurse was mean she yelled at me, frightening me making feel as if i was at a show again luckily i was taken into Treves' office. Dr. Treves is man that i am shocked to meet he has gone to see me when i was with Bytes and has asked me to go to the hospital. This i want to know what i have in store for my future and if Dr. treves can help me to be normal like him and every one else, that is all i truly want. Im tired of being looked at tired of being treated as a freak, i am a human just like Dr. Treves. I want to be seen as a person not a Freak. This doctor showcased me in front of other doctors it makes me wonder what i am actually here for. Bytes has done the same thing just in front of a audience paying to see me.

Welcome to my nightmare

My most memorable nightmare was stirred from watching the movie "Paranormal Activity". I've read before that most dreams deal with real aspects of our daily life. My dream started with me feeling as if i was actually awake and for the life of me i could not get up off my bed or cry for help. I felt a sudden anxiety from not being able to get off my bed and i tried to rouse myself up but nothing would work. I began to hear a deep, scary laugh that only gave me more panic. My hands were free to move and for some reason one dangled off my bed only to be a sudden touch from underneath my bed. I did not want to look and i did not want to look up. I closed my eyes during the dream hoping everything would pass over if i was to either wake up. The last and final scare was when i felt my bed begin to rise and move upwards while the deep laugh was lingering in a distance. i was frightened and worried if everything i was experiencing was not a dream and real life. I was scared. By chance i quickly fell to the floor and opened my eyes after several minutes. Interesting i woke up from the dream got a cup of water turned on a couple of lights to check if anything was misplaced and giving evidence to my experience but nothing was found and i went to bed never experiencing such a thing again.
