Scent of a woman

Scent of woman 1992  by Martin Brest

Starring Al Pacino Chris O’ Donnel

Frank is a retired Lt Col in the US army. He's blind and impossible to get along with.   Charlie Simms is a boy from Oregon who attends Baird School, a Boys’ boarding school (In New Hampshire)

 Unlike most of the other boys who come from rich and affluent backgrounds Simms is there on a scholarship. One evening  while Charlie and a very well-off boy are walking , they see that some friends of George's  are preparing a  prank on Mr Trask, the Dean (the headmaster) of the school.

 The headmaster learns that Charlie and George know who pulled the prank and invite them to tell him their names, but they refuse to.

 He gives the Thanksgiving Holiday to think about it. He also tells Charlie that he's recommending him to an Ivy League College.

 Charlie then goes off to a Thanksgiving job--taking care of Colonel Frank Slade.

 To Charlie’s surprise  Slade has a plan: to go to New York where he has several agendas of his own.

Here are few words to look it up: big hug, fearless, voracious reader, rippling creek, endowed with wisdom, of judgement sound, abound,deal, conniving, crass, puckered his lips, stunt, lamppost, pulled focus.

Scent of a woman "the prank"

Animal farm second part

Even the seven commandments were changed into one:

The theme of betrayal of democracy is summed up in this slogan.
 So their communist rebellion ended in fierce dictatorship by the pigs. The initial protest revealed to be a complete failure because their former comrades were now their dictators and enemies.

With "Animal farm" Orwell wanted to describe and denounce the degeneration of the Russian Revolution and the horrors of Stalinism. The story can be considered also as a satire on dictatorship in general, not only in Russia; Orwell was convinced that his duty was to show people the deceptions of a Communist State. He believed that power corrupts all men.

Animal farm story First part

 Animal farm is a fairy story which tells the animals' revolution against their enemy: MAN!!!!
The leaders of the revolt were two pigs : Napoleon and Snowball. They formulated the Seven commandments which were the principles of Animalism:







Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy.
Whatever goes upon four legs or has wings is a friend.
No animal shall wear clothes.
No animal shall sleep in bed.
No animal shall drink alcohol.
No animal shall kill any other animal.
All animals are equal.


Years passed but the pigs started to behave like men: they walked on two legs, they wore clothes,  and they sat at tables drinking wine and alcoholic drinks; it was now impossible to distinguish pigs from men.......

To be continued...............................

Characters in Animal farm

In the story the main characters represent a historical character.

The old major  represents Lenin the charismatic leader.

Napoleon represents Stalin, who,like Napoleon, turned revolution into dictatorship.
.He is the ambitious pig, who does not hesitate to betray (tradire) the
revolution to become a dictator

Snowball represents Trotsky
for his white beard and hair,and the fact that he was eliminated by Stalin.





Boxer the simple and honest horse,whose strength is exploited by the pigs (the intellectuals) represents the workers ; they are  destined to work incessantly to make others (the pigs) comfortable and gaining nothing from their work.
