Dustin Hoffman
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 495

.... that the producer of that film had casted the wrong actor but after watching more of the film I changed my mind. His character in this movie was probably difficult to act because of the events that took place in the film. His character's personality and surroundings changed so much.

Kramer” was fairly simple, however it showed how he could play diverse roles in different movies. In this film he played a father who's wife left him .....

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1019

.... is quoted as saying "My life is for itself and not for a spectacle." I think that he means that each and every person has their own life to live and that they shouldn't devote their time to worrying about what other people are doing. You have enough to worry about with what's going on in your own lives. Emerson believes that when you express what you are feeling on the inside, most people will be able to relate with what you are feeling.
