Tony has a scratchy, slightly lower pitched voice form of Danny’s. Tony is most comparable to a tulpa; an entity created in the mind, acting parallel to or independently from one's’ own consciousness. Danny created this “invisible friend” as way to cope with his family's issues following the Danny event. “The greatest terror of Danny's life was DIVORCE, a

Tony loves him so thats the main reason why she gives him another chance, but he also did allot for her to realise that she could be losing her soulmate, another person who helped her find that out was her friend Jone. Jone helps her out by kicking her out of her house and telling her what a great husband she has and how she has become a better person with him.

Tony, Wes's older brother, serves as his primary role model throughout his life. As a child, Wes looks up to the Tony, who holds his own street corner and sells drugs. "To Wes, Tony was a 'certified gangsta.' Tony had started dealing drugs... before he was ten. By the time he was fourteen, Tony had built a fierce reputation in the neighborhood. Despite his skinny frame and a baby face, his eyes were lifeless and hooded, without a spark of optimism" (27). All Wes wants is to be like Tony. He looks up to his older brother and is incapable of seeing his flaws with the drug dealing and violence in his life. By the time Tony is a teenager, the drug game has made him "lifeless". Wes decides to look up to this lifeless figure, even though Tony has barely any hope for his future. Wes respects Tony's "fierce reputation". Tony, instead of working hard to gain his respect, intimidates and threatens others for it. Wes is taught that this is the only way to gain respect, because there is no one else in his life who shows him the right

the way he feels about the world. He shows us that at the time of this

     Although the characters believed they lived a good life, in my own perspective I saw the exact opposite. The good life is demonstrated through success, success through a career, education, goals, and love. The gangs only had one another and without the support of that gang, these boys would not exist as individual human beings. The Jets did not want to have jobs, and they mocked the ex-gang member, Tony, for leaving the gang to make a future for himself. Life outside the gang was not an option for the Jets. None of the boys had any future plans or felt the need for anything else in their lives. Tony did not live the good life, but he did have dreams. He knew there was a better life for him out there, and parting from the gang allowed him to search for that life. He wanted to get away from the city, have a peaceful home, and a wonderful wife. His future was important to him; he wanted to be a successful man. Tony’s character contradicts the beliefs of the Jets, allowing viewers to see into the minds of the gang members and their beliefs about the good life.

and becoming a man, boys witness acts of sin and commit a few acts themselves. Tony has witnessed sin but he is not a man because he has not committed any sins or seen enough to really understand the world he is living in. Tony is taught that, ?It was a sin to grow up and be a man.'; (31), by listening to his mother, and realizes that one day he would be grown up and lose his innocence to become a man. Because of this Tony sees how cruel God can be by putting boys on earth to grow up and become men. Tony asks whether his destiny and faith are the ones he wants to believe in and begins his journey towards changing his spiritual beliefs, and the golden carp only reinforces these doubts that Tony is just beginning to realize.

3). Tony has been in and out of jail since he was an adolescent. He hits, steals, and he destroys property and says he enjoys doing so "because people are stupid". He shows little remorse for his crimes, behaves impulsively, and lacks empathy for the rights and feelings of others.

He is extra sensitive to find his place in the world, as he is trapped between two competing cultural visions. Antonio is in search of role models to follow as he embarks on a quest for his destiny. In the process in finding himself Tony serves as the apprentice to Ultima the curandera, and Tony adapts to going to school, learning about his Christian faith, and an eyewitnesses some fatal events. Along the way on Tony’s path with Ultima he finds that there are so many clues to the answers to his questions. Answers that are incited by his dreams and I think this is why he has difficulties understanding the world around him.

He didn’t get involved in the best way possible though. His grandpa and dad both volunteered in their community as firefighters. While he was picking up rocks with them, he saw a rock that they had missed. Thinking he would be fine, Tony jumped off the tractor to pick the rock up. The wheels caught his legs and he got dragged into the tractor’s axle. He broke both of his legs and could have died if it wasn’t for all of the community working together to help get him out of the axle. Seeing the community jumping to his rescue; he saw, first hand, how the fire department helped people. As an EMT, Tony is usually the first “arriving on the patient, and [is] the eyes and ears of the scene” (Maria Zagorulya). Since Tony is a pastor; he doesn’t get called out too often. The calls are usually just minor things such as a small car accident. Watching people has helped Tony to understand that helping people does good

Finally, Tony Stark’s most obvious change was simply in becoming a superhero. From the start of the movie, Stark was a rich, self-interested playboy who would be more concerned over a scratch on the finish of his Audi R8 than the fate of the free world unless it benefitted him. Taking a completely different direction, Tony used his Iron Man suit to pursue those who wrongfully used Stark Industries weapons. Stark even stated, “I shouldn't be alive... unless it was for a reason. I'm not crazy, Pepper. I just finally know what I have to do. And I know in my heart that it's right”. (Iron Man) This

Content and form are two elements of film that coincide with each other. Content is the subject that describes what a scene or film is generally about. The content of a film could be the plot or a character’s analysis. On the other hand, form is the means by which a subject is insightfully expressed by the director to his or her viewers. Form supplies specific methods and techniques necessary to present itself to the audience.

His giddy demeanor further showed that the character didn’t blink an eye at violence, but instead enjoyed it. Muni’s vocal reaction to being repeatedly shot at made his character even more believable and better. He could have said those lines casually and it would have done the job of showing he didn’t care, but his upbeat voice gave depth to the character that I really enjoyed. Tony is a character that, from the start, was depicted as someone who doesn’t care about hurting people as long as he is getting his way. He shows his nonchalant attitude towards the idea of killing people and his over confidence in his abilities from the start of the film when he was sat in the car. This was during his talk about how he can run easily the business; he is seated in the car reclining. It’s one of those small things that actors do that make their performance more realistic that I really

Tony Stark was a genius who used his intellect for the good of mankind through his Iron Man suit. Even from a young age, Tony showed signs of being a child genius or prodigy. When he was just 12 years old he built a car engine in his garage. Then when he was 18 years old he graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a degree in mechanical engineering. He carried his ingenious brain and ideas in his adulthood by taking over his dad's weapons company and quickly becoming a household name in the weapons industry. But where he was really able to show off his intelligence was when he was held captive in a cave in Afghanistan by terrorist and asked to build a weapon of mass destruction. With the little resources he was given to work with, Tony was able to build a high tech iron suit. When he put the suit into action for the first time, he was able to knock out part of a terrorist group that was holding him captive and escape.

Tony attended one of the oldest schools in the east end of London. In appearance, Tony is faintly rough around the edges with an abundance of confidence. According to Tony, when asked about how he felt about fighting, he said fighting was good. Like most children, Tony appears to have little inhibitions and filters when he speaks. In addition, he appears to be well liked by his peers.

Fast forward to the year 2012, where it has been over a decade since the events that took place in Bern, Switzerland. Tony then turns on the television to discover a new terrorist that identified himself as the Manadrin. Later on Tony sits down at a restaurant with his best pal Colonel James Rhodes (Don Cheadel) aka “The Iron Patriot” formally the war machine to discuss what is going on with the Mandarin. Rhodes discusses with Tony that the media have only identified three bombing that the media knows about, but mentions that there has been nine that the Manadrin have been responsible for. Tony then is approached by a group of kids for an autograph and he suffers a severe anxiety attack. Rhodes then suggests that he gets out of the area. Tony then goes directly to his Iron Man suit to get out of the
