This excitement ended when they decided to rob a blind veteran who supposedly has $300,000 in cash in his home. Money without thinking of the repercussions decides to break in and attempt at robbing the blind man named Norman Nordstrom played by Stephen Lang. Money then unthinkingly pulls out a gun on Nordstrom, but he uses self-defense against Money and kills him. As this is occurring, Rocky remains hiding in the closet and notices Nordstrom open a hidden safe with the money inside. Once he leaves, Rocky steals the cash and head out of the closet. Nordstrom suspects Money’s the only one in the house, but as Rocky and Alex slowly try to walk away from the scene, a floorboard squeaks and scares the blind man into placing his home on lockdown. In an attempt to survive, Alex and Rocky see a door that leads to the basement. In the basement, they find a woman tied …show more content…

  • The House I Live In Documentary Analysis

    516 Words  | 3 Pages

    Keywords that are most important to the documentary are, War on Drugs, incarceration, drug involvement/abuse, and racism. All of these words are loosely or heavily connected to each other. The words drug involvement/abuse highlight the purpose of the film, and the reasons for the War on Drugs and numerous laws created to fight drug abuse that cause death and destroy abiding citizens of communities. Furthermore, the War on Drugs simply labels the struggle against drug use and the governmental involvement to enforce anti-drug laws. The word incarceration and racism also link together to explain how as a result of the War on Drugs, the U.S. is one of the top countries with the highest imprisonment rate and more African-Americans or low-class minorities are convicted of drug crimes than any other ethnicity or social class.

    The film Miracle portrays one of the most significant moments in U.S Olympics history. The thought of a group of college hockey players beating the “lab-made” Russians was almost inconceivable at the time.

Following World War II, Eastern and Western nations faced geopolitical tensions, and eventually, entered into the Cold War. While the U.S and Russia never fired a shot during the Cold War, the tension between the two nations was ever-present.

    The conflict of societies is represented by the Iranian store proprietor who translates the well-implied comments of the locksmith around a harmed entryway as a shake-down for more cash. The theme of class difference is investigated in the differentiation of characters. For instance, the African-American chief and his wife are high society as far as instruction and salary while the African-American criminologist has worked his way into a white collar class occupation and his mother is a drug someone who is addicted and his brother a criminal. The DA's wife, who lives in the well off Brentwood zone of Los Angeles, is continually whining about her servant/caretaker, a battling Latina. Inhumanity is yet another thought investigated in the film: a policeman sexually mortifies a guiltless lady, a HMO agent whimsically refuses any assistance to a torment man, a shocked man purchases a weapon to get revenge against a pure man he supposes has wronged him, and
