O'Brien changes..

In "On The Rainy River" Tim O'Brien was contemplating whether he should go to war,both the author and the character. The author did not actually go to Canada he spent this time playing golf(which would definetely not be interesting to read about) O'Brien was frightened and was not sure what decision He should make. His whole frightened and soft side faded in "The Ghost Soldiers". He describes to the readers the pain that came with being shot. Where He used to be concerned in doing the right thing O'Brien changed. Maybe it was the cruelty of war that made him lose sight of doing the right thing. He felt this great need to get revenge on a fellow soldier. He was mistreated by Jorgenson and that could have led to the evil that came out of him.

Story Vs Essay

When I view a movie that says "based on a true story" I wonder could that really happen or I may be more critical. I watched Paranormal Activity, which states that it is based on a true story. The movie was ok, but I am very skeptical if the things actually happened. I do believe that there are spirits both good and bad, but like most movies some things are added in for dramatic effect. There are some VERY interesting and unbelievable things that happen in real life but there are also producers that understand that people need to see stuff that excited them!
