Film Lesson: "The Right Stuff"

the soviet union and the united states were competing to have the best nuclear weapon and which one was going to be the first on space. the U.S. spy on the soviet union to know what was going on. eventually i think the united states was winning because even though the U.S. dint have a men go to space it send a monkey first than the the soviet union. the scenes from this film that will remind me of the cold war would be when the monkey went to space and when the soviet union had a men go up to space. i think this clearly illustrate the competion between the two superpowers. i think this was a good event that help prevent a future war between them, because if one bombs the other then eventually the other will bomb back and each other will kill them equally, so there is no point of it.

Film Lesson: "Night and Fog"

my reaction to this film was like to go and kill Hitler with my bare hands if he was alive. i never believe a human being was capable of such a thing. i was totally shock after seen this movie, in my opinion it was so unfair how jews were treated like that for no reason. scenes were a little sad, because people were taken away from their home. and they were starving all squish in a train wagon begging for water. jews look so skinny and bony. however for the luck of jews there were refugees for jews in the Dominican republic the only country that offered by Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Valdez the president to take in 100,000 of jews. however only 645 jews made it to the island. scenes from this film compare to the schindlers list are much more stronger.
