- 18787: All Quiet On The Western Front
- ... Quiet on the Western Front This movie was a great example of an anti-war film. I have never seen a movie that depicted war scenes as graphic as this movie. At first, I didn’t really enjoy it, because the editing job was so terrible, but it was made in 1930. In the movie, the boys who enlisted in war were fresh out of school. They thought that was a ... bombardment scenes were especially graphic, even for that time in out history. The bombing scenes looked very real, and the acting was pretty good. Anyone who watches the movie can see that war changes someone’s mental state also. The boys originally were excited about war and the aspects of what was in store for them. They found out though that what they were expecting was not going to happen, and it appeared that those who were not killed in the war went somewhat crazy. When one of the boys (the name I don’t remember) goes back to his class to tell the new students about war, he couldn’t contain himself. His teacher had made war sound like a great adventure that everyone should experience. When the ...

The answer to this question may be more complicated, however, what ... college students were asked to spend one and a half hours in an isolated room with a large volume of pornographic media, as well as a large volume of non-explicit media such as Reader’s Digest (Howitt, Cumberbatch 1975:80). The study was conducted over a three week period over which time it was discovered that the males involved in the experiment began to lose interest, or become desensitized ...
