Gattaca gives one perspective of what the future of discrimination is to become: DNA.

Society has set an unbreakable code that individuals must follow to be accepted within the majority. Those who don't follow the standard are loathed and unloved; the "monster"in Frankenstein fell victim to this

"The Crucible" Critical Analysis
Arthur Miller has argued for years about the historical truth surrounding The Crucible, and defined its trans-historical subject as a social process that includes the Salem witchcraft trials and the anti-Communist investigations of the fifties. Though The Crucible is unrelenting in its opposition to the authoritarian systems represented by Puritanism and McCarthyism, its use of historical material and the position on moral tyranny, which it projects, seems far more complex than criticism on the play

Hot Fuzz - Movie Review
Hot Fuzz Starring: Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Bill Nighy Director: Edgar Wright Review: I must admit, I approached this film with a certain amount of trepidation. Maybe it was because I was expecting what would basically become a cop-film parody version of Shaun of the Dead, with the same jokes and, on the whole, the same themes.

Macbeth Theatre Review
The play Macbeth, directed by Arthur Dignam and Robert Menzies, was unique from other interpretations of the well-known Shakespeare play 'Macbeth', as the main characters were performed by women, and one of the 'Weird Sisters' was performed by the male director, Arthur Dignam. This casting decision of experimenting with different gender roles is indeed interesting as it eliminates stereotypes i.e. witches are known to be females; and it challenges the idea of "what it means

As a result, Frankenstein is nothing more than a conglomeration
