290 Words2 Pages

I am glad to know much about Catherine Hardwicke from you. I also think highly of her because it was when she was at age of 48 years old that she directed her first feature length movie.

Hardwicke take an advantage of her position, a production designer, which gave her a chance to learn from other directors. I am surprise that directors, such as Cameron Crowe, Richard Linklater, and David O. Russell, who Hardwicke work with are younger than her. Hardwicke’s newest film is Stargirl, which is base on Jerry Spinelli’s novel Stargirl and will be released in 2016. “A quirky, homeschooled teenager shakes things up at

  • Summary Of Miranda Devine's Modest Middleton Girls Impeccable

    Miranda Devine’s opinion piece ‘Modest Middleton Girls Impeccable’ published in the Sunday Herald, May 8th, 2011, argues that todays society had become “pornified” and role models such as The Middleton sisters are bringing back “sexiness by implication”. A patronising tone is adopted when Devine refers to the “over-peroxide” and “over-cleavaged” appearance of Generation Y girls. But when the author talks about the Middleton's sisters, she uses juxtaposition by adopting a more sensitive tone of appreciation and respect, commenting on the modesty and classiness of Kate and Pippa.
