What makes a speech good

Speeches are good when you have strong points, but you dont want to get into too much detail. this could either lead you away from your topic and focus on smaller details than the more important ones, or it can bore your audience and get them less interested. if you get involved and show emotion or feel strongly about your topic, show it. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself or whatever topic your discussing. A speech can be stronger if not only its your opinion, but if i has to do with you. I read a speech on gay rights. It means alot to me that they allowed in all states, because they should be. This topic matters not only to me but to alot of people who havent made big enough acctions to get laws against the gay and lesbian community changed.... To Be Continued

Princess Bride Movie Review

Princess Bride is a movie directed by Rob Reiner, starring Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Robin Wright Penn, Andre the Giant, and Wallace Shawn. This story is a classic fairytale with sword fighting, giants, an evil prince, a beautiful princess, and of course her prince charming. This movie is great for all ages and funny to everyone too. In my opinion, I could watch the movie over and over again. It was, and still is one of my favorite childhood movies that still appeals to me as a young adult now. The story is a classic tale of love and adventure as the beautiful Buttercup is kidnapped and held against her will in order to marry the odious Prince Humperdinck, and Westley, Buttercups childhood boyfriend who returns as the Dread Pirate Roberts, attempts to save her. On the way he meets an accomplished swordsman and a huge, super strong giant, both of whom become his companions in his quest. They meet a few bad guys along the way to rescue Buttercup. The actors and actress in Princess Bride do a wonderful job as the characters they play. Mandy Patinkin is my favorite actor in this movie. He is a Spanish sword fighter who wants to avenge his fathers death by hunting down the man that killed his father. When he finally finds him it is moving and emotionally to finally see him succeed his life long mission. The music in the movie went along with the scenes very well, like when there was a happy part the music would be uplifting, the same goes for sad or dark parts. Overall since this movie is one of my favorite I would give it 5 stars. I recommend this movie to people of all ages, and you should sit the whole family down with a bowl of popcorn and enjoy this classic fairytale.
