Another reason why Paul considers himself old is because soldiers even younger than himself surround him.

The Ring Critique
The movie “The Ring” was a horror film that I found to be a major disappointment. The opening scene is probably one of the best in the whole movie, which in my opinion is pathetic. When the young girl in the beginning was killed seven days after watching the tape because her “heart stopped” after seeing Samara, I thought to myself “Wow, this may turn out to be an interesting movie,” but they ruined it

I was able to watch Hamlet Redux at the Wilfrido Ma. Guerrerro Theater Palma Hall in UP Diliman on December 6, Wednesday. It was an English version of the play.

In The Jungle, Upton Sinclair uses a true to life story to demonstrate the working man’s life during industrialization.

A Critique of Pablo Neruda's “keeping Still”
Keeping Still by Pablo Neruda is a thought provoking work of poetry. The poem was probably applicable to humanity of the time when it was authored, but it eerily fits so well into this moment of time and space.
