Prompt: Why is there a need of terrorism?
Why are people so mad at Americans? Since 9/11, 53 attacks have been stopped. Was this the story of one that was stopped? Why was the leading role, a female? Are people tramatically affected by soldiers getting killed, that they will kill to get revenge? Will people result to revenge of killing, to satisfy their own hurt? Is it okay, to have relationships inside of work? Is access to technology that important? How do people get access to things that shouldn’t exist? Purpose: to persuade Audience: Americans Students Teacher Military families Agents Citizens/passers by Focus: Identify a problem and solve it without getting killed or falsely accused.

Survivor. A story about a young woman named Kate Abbott, working as a Security Service Agent, for the American Embassy, to cause of the effect, most of her friends died in the 9/11 tragedy. Suspecting that one if the people she comes across doing her job, is a suspected terrorist, she investigates. After getting rejected by her supervisor and her coworkers, they go out to lunch for their supervisor’s birthday, who doesn’t show up. The restaurant gets blown to pieces by a bomb placed on their table. Kate was the only one who survived this incident, because of having to leave, to go get a gift for their supervisor. She runs away from the scene as she sees she is wanted to be dead. She runs into her supervisor, who unexpectedly, pulls a gun on her. She refrains the gun from him in shooting her, to accidentally shooting Bill, and killing him. One of the world’s most wanted killers, “The Watchmaker” is on the hunt to kill Kate Abbott as well as most of her team, because they think she was the one who is doing the murdering. Through security cameras and the news channel, she is classified as a suspect for the bombing and the murder. The Watchmaker’s plot in the story is to blow up the ball, that drops in Times Square on New Year's Eve with his partner, Balan. Who wants to avenge his late wife’s death after he claims American’s killed her. After struggling to find The Watchmaker, she and him come face to face again, in hopes she can stop him from blowing up Times Square. I really enjoyed watching this movie. The only thing that I would critique about this film is the amount of unnecessary hitmen in this film. It was confusing to know who were the lowkey bad guys and who weren’t. There were a lot of similar scenes that could've been cut out, as well as deeper, more meaningful lines in the movie itself. “The fireworks in Dubai, that was you, right?” “You shouldn’t of asked me about Dubai” “Can it hit us from here?” “No, it shouldn’t” “Good” *stabs and kills his partner* “Time’s up!” I was scrolling through one of my social media sights, and I saw one of my friends post about a movie that they recently saw, Manchester by the Sea. He had a lot of comments underneath it saying it was a very good movie. It was talked about at very famous award shows and I wanted to see so for myself. I put the movie on, and I’ll admit, I was very lost at first, it seemed like the movie began in the middle of 3 different scenes. I googled the plot of the movie, so hopefully, better understand what was going on. I finally was able to piece together the scene that was appearing and who the characters were in the story. I am very picky about my movies, especially sad ones. This movie was very sad, but had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! It’s about a man, Lee Chandler, a poor man, who can barely handle life itself, became unbearable by events showing up in his life, past and future, stories that were involved. His older brother had died, and left his brother Lee, in his will, surprisingly, to care for his only son, Patrick. Events come up during the movie that are unfortunately life experiences for some people, and it's hard to imagine that stuff like this, happens every day, to good people, and can be too much to handle for most.
