Hey guys! Today I’m going to talk to you about the importance of introductions in movies and books. Introductions tell you what the rest of the movie or book is going to about. They are extremely important because of many reasons. First, you cannot have a boring introduction because no one will want to keep watching nor reading. Another is that you have to make sure that your information in your is very straight forward and not confusing; it conveys what will happen in the future in the book or movie. One example of a movie that has a great introduction is Sicko. This movie is a documentary and it is made to portray the major health issues around the world. The introduction reveals the problems with insurance companies not giving any support or help to the people. This is a great introduction because it shows what the rest of the movie is going to be about. Almost all of Michael Moore movies are great and have great introductions.
Now onto Macbeth. There are many things going on in the first five acts. There seems to be some mysterious and curious comments that Macbeth is making. He is wondering whether or not he should kill King Duncan to become king or if he should not listen to the witches. There also to be a theme of power among the women in this act. Lady Macbeth seems as though she is a stronger person, mentally, than Macbeth.
