The Spotlight Essays

Literature review Introduction Many changes in the industries and workplaces have changed and affected the work and personal lives. These changes have risen in recent years as a result of large numbers of working people and the entry of more women in the labor force. Women used to take care of their families and children and men used to work. However, nowadays most women work and share their duties with men in different organisations and at different job levels. For example, a working woman needs

For a moment, picture having an interest or hobby that you enjoyed, football for instance. But, sadly, almost everyone around you had a strong hatred for football. So, to fit in, you too pretend to both hate it and enjoy what the majority of people around you like; for example, golfing. While they’re both sports, they have numerous differences, so no matter how hard you try, in your heart, you constantly wish you were playing football instead of golfing. This can be used to depict how queer people

The movie Spotlight, recounts the true events that occurred in Boston and were brought to light back in 2002. The movie talks about the massive cover-up scheme by the catholic church to conceals the fact that several priests were abusing and had abused hundreds of kids without any action from the Archdiocese. In this paper I will summarize the movie, discuss the type of victims shown in the movie, asses the risk level of the victims, and lastly relate the different theories of victimization and how

that priests should not be prosecuted for their actions because they are under the influence of God. Anyone who protested was silenced immediately by the church to protect their image. Freethought was not allowed within the church. However, the Spotlight investigation team had no limit on their free thought and used their knowledge of the churches’ atrocities to question further the people involved. The Catholic church saw this as positive freedom, where they were protecting themselves by keeping

In “Teenagers and Their Need for The Spotlight,” originally published in 2013 by Idaho State Journal, journalist Michael H. O’Donnell contends that the constant need for attention that teenagers crave coupled with their impulsive behavior produces disastrous results. O’Donnell claims that teenagers would do anything to receive recognition from not only their peers, but the public, even going as far as murdering someone for publicity. He further argues that “... the murder case of Cassie Jo [serves

Change is a part of life that can be beneficial, harmful, or both. Every day people dream of becoming something they are not with hopes they can achieve what they believe to be a better life. In “The Ruined Maid” by Thomas Hardy and “St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves” by Karen Russell, both narrators undergo a drastic transition in their lifestyles. In Hardy’s poem the narrator, Melia, goes from living a simple farm life, to living a luxurious life as a prostitute. In Russell’s short story

The film Spotlight dives into countless examples of institutions and works to tie them all together with the central theme of dominants controlling the information that subordinates are allowed to receive. The main institution that The Boston Globe was attacking in the film was the Catholic religion. The members of the Spotlight team worked relentlessly to prove that the Bishops of Boston’s clergy, the dominants, were covering up hundreds of child molestations by their own priests. Since religion

In Karen Russell's short story, “St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves”, a pack of wolf-girls are sent to a church to transform them into human-girls. As they journey through their transformation there is a guide called, The Jesuit Handbook on Lycanthropic Culture Shock that helps the nuns running St. Lucy’s. The book describes the transformation in stages to help determine the girls’ place as a human. Claudette, the narrator, arrives at St. Lucy’s with her pack to begin their transformation

Mike Rezendes “When you’re a poor kid from a poor family and when the priest pays attention to you, how do you say no to God?”-Phil Saviano. After Mike Rezendes and the Spotlight team heard his testimony over the church allowing the abuse to continue and doing nothing about it, he was convinced that this was a story that needed to be heard. Mike Rezendes from Boston Massachusetts, and a reporter for the Boston Globe, graduated from Boston University with a BA in English. He then later received an

he gives somewhat of an explanation for the lack of complaining in the USA. People seem to feel like waiting for someone else to say something instead of them will be a safe debt. Waiting for someone else to speak up will keep them away from the “spotlight”; something that everyone was very happy about turning the 1960s. This course was a problem because when American citizens stop complaining and they just waited for someone else to do it, a very large amount of injustice was happening right beneath

attention. Gotti then makes his way into the club. P3 – Throught Gotti’s time in the club there will be a performance shot with him and the girls in his DM. As he DM’s each girl they pop up into the shot and whisper into his ear. The girls are spotlight with a

As I run on to the stage, the spotlight blinds me. I open my eyes to see the auditorium completely packed; I continue to walk as I start my scene. "Benevolent merfolk. Welcome!" The scene continues for a short amount of time until it is my time to exit. Now, I sit backstage and wait for my next entrance… It was a wonderful school day where my friends and I got to go down and skip class to do the one thing we love most: singing. On certain days we go down to the music room to be in chorus class, and

As he sits down, he loosens his tie, the spotlight reveals a sweat-covered face. He lights a cigarette, both actions carried out with only one hand, (opposite than the arm he was clutching before) revealing an injury. As he single-handedly slides himself over to the old-fashioned recording machine and sets it up, the camera follows in a tracking shot before the shot ends. His sweating face is emphasized in this close-up static shot, the low-key spotlight focusing upon the man’s face. He starts the

Neighbor Frustrations What bowfishing tournaments do bring to some areas is a number of river boats with loud engines, spotlights, and hundreds of fishermen all set on winning the prize. For small towns, the excessive number of people to the area can be overbearing. The small streams and lakes are behind homes, which means the riverboats are keeping people awake at night and the spotlights

I chose to produce The Pillowman by Martin McDonagh simply because dark comedy is my favorite genre and this play has quite a few concepts that would be considered “taboo” or topics that should be talked about on a regular basis, but aren’t due to the fact that it is potentially uncomfortable subjects. Some examples of the taboo topics in the play are government systems, media coverage, and mental illness. The audience intended for this play is adults, being that the plotline includes more risky/disturbing

on full display. Bo exhibited a very quiet and humble personality when confronted by the media. He never brought the spotlight to shine brighter upon him through his words, preferring instead to let his athletic feats do the talking for him. Deion “Prime Time” Sanders was a different story, while he remains one of the most electric athletes of his time. He commanded the spotlight through how he portrayed himself to the media. He played the part of a true entertainer, commanding his audience’s attention

Sinclair is a humble leader, usually avoiding the spotlight. Her coach, John Herdman says that he thinks the best leaders are the ones that do not speak much, but are listened to when they do because it does not happen often. This applies directly to Sinclair because she takes more to the style of leadership in which you lead by example, rather than with words. In spite of being the face of Canadian soccer, Christine likes to avidly avoid the spotlight, not because she is shy, but because she thinks
