"The Stepford Wives" Then And Now: Opposites
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. While the two versions of The Stepford Wives share a common storyline, there are fundamental differences between the films great enough to qualify them as opposites. The psychological, feminist and patriarchal underpinnings all remain intact, however, it is the gender switch and genetic references that serve to differentiate the 2004 remake from its 1975 original. Whereas Joanna succumbs to the manipulative, mind controlling authority and ultimately becomes a Stepford robot wife in the first version, her 2004 character performs her own manipulation by pretending to have been transformed in order to escape that very thing. This aspect of the film illustrates how the focus is no longer on the weak female as it was thirty years ago but rather spotlights the strength that women have developed as a gender over the past three decades. Moreover, the additional genetic component of the latter film puts into greater perspective the potential consequences associated with artificial engineering and man's constant need to tinker with concepts that are far beyond his thorough understanding. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Active Euthanasia: Preferable To Passive Euthanasia
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. To be entirely autonomous, one must also possess the moral and legal authority to take one's own life; however, contemporary society stops short of this specific aspect of a self-governing existence and imposes strict limitations upon a person's desire to take his or her life within the context of medically-related circumstances. Euthanasia in any form, according to Rachels (1975), fails to support the very foundation of any moral canon, no matter if the intent is pure. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
