Prompt I
The film "The Tree of Life," which is an ethereal work of art, thrills with its theme on loss, despair, supernatural being, and the search of faith. The film releases aesthetic motion from its intrinsic features like motion, rhythm, shape, and color; these develop aesthetic motion on the viewer. As an art, it flows into a tumble of gorgeous images underscored by whispered voice over, which expresses ineffable by using all cinema possibilities like sound, design, music, image, and dialogue. Like O'Brien, the main characters also develop formalism in a beautifully furnished modernist house with classic American furniture that, after receiving and reading a telegram, collapses, letting out a howl (Sangeeta, 2015). It shows that a child has died, but the parents are comforted that God gave and has now taken.
Prompt II
Aristotle is not entirely interested in erotic love but majorly focuses on philia . However, Plato has it that serious friendship is what people in love can have for one another. Aristotle would say that when one has affection for inanimate things, it should not be termed as philia since the love will not be reciprocated. According to Plato, Philia strengthens and develops Eros by transforming it from lust for possession to a desire of an advanced level of understanding the universe, understanding oneself and other people (Alexander, 2016). Aristotle says that love wishes good for others ( antiphilesis ), and he says one must wish good things for a friend for his sake. People who wish good for others, Aristotle called eunous (well-disposed). On the other hand, Plato fleshes out love on Phaedrus and symposium , among other positions.

Prompt III
The poem "Love's Inconsistency" is a paradox of joy and sorrow that the persona faces when trying to come to terms with the feelings in his heart. The poet uses images to make his work stand out; thus, he points out that without eyes, he can see and he can complain without his tongue. On the other hand, "After great pain, a formal feeling comes" is also a poem on the pain that is in the heart because of love. The persona also faces pain, terror, and despair that the poet brings out using irony and ambiguity to develop; thus, "the nerves sit ceremonious like tombs." Contrastingly, Emily Dickinson's language points to an emotionless feeling. She uses words like perish, dies, fear, and sorrow to create an aspect of heavy coldness that stems from lack of warmth. Petrarch alternatively, creates the feeling that when someone does not love you back, it reaches a point when the pains of the heart become unbearable. But any slight good from them will give you brief happiness that will make you at peace.
Prompt IV
The two songs share stately pace with a rondo structure, which allows them to develop the theme of love. The languorous melody is developed in both from the philosophical and poetic composition. They have smooth flowing lines, which makes them both have a cantabile quality associated with romance (Daniel, 2017). Additionally, "Violin Romance 2" is in F Major, and it combines equal measure, sentiments, and stateliness. On the other hand, in "Maple Leaf Rag," the syncopation can be detected easily. As it plays, it is easy to detect the different melodies applied. The pitch can shift but remains the same as it slows down a little towards the end.
Prompt V
In several films, Indiana Jones is depicted as a complex character who takes a proactive role in his movies. He is portrayed to raise emotions in each of his adventures, and thus, he is reliable, variable, and compelling to his viewers. He is a stock character since he always represents a vulnerable class of people. Additionally, as a hero, he is dynamic, for he can change as the story progresses, unlike other characters who remain static (Justin, 2017). He will exist as a response to enormous superheroes. He initially receives the wrath of others but outshines them in wits, thus making him relate well with his audience. Such actions make him conspicuous even in modern films.
