Or do you think that it's totally up to individual talent, and it doesn't matter if you go to an expensive or more well-known art school? But to a less-well known, but still excellent in itself!

I have a hard time believing that all Germans in the 1930s worshipped Hitler and supporters the views of the Nazis.
Was there any kind of coordianted 'underground' movement in Germany before- and during WW2 to fight against the Nazis and take out Hitler?

What I meant by my last question is whether a literary agent will do me any good. Say a publishing company does not require a literary agent and i can just sent my request in to them for publication. Would having a literary agent help me in publishing? would a literary agent help me money-wise and all those other -"wise"'s?
pro's of a literary agent?

So I've been accepted to NYU, Chapman, and USC. I guess the big debate then is, east coast film vs. west. I've heard great things about all the schools, and alot of negatives. NYU esspecially seems to be great for indie film making, which is really what I'm interested in... where as USC seems to just shoot you out into the studio system. So thats great and all, but I'll still need to make money, obviously. Will a school like NYU, so far away from Hollywood and the studio system prepare me to make the right connections in Hollywood? I'd hate to spend 4 years there and a rediculous amount of money, and have nothing to show for it.

Hi, i put this in this section because the people over in the movie section probably dont know much about history anyways. I want to know what stuff portrayed in The Amazing Grace (any kind of detail) is not historical accurate, including dates and stuff.

This thing stays in my supply room. Not because I wasn't happy with the effort or the final effect because I liked working in this style. It's just that the painting seemed to come out too creepy to me.

I don't want to paint over it or throw it away, but I don't like looking at it either. Hopefully someday I can trade it off or sell it to some poor soul.

What do you guys think?

Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end;
Each changing place with that which goes before,
In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
Nativity, once in the main of light,
Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crown'd,
Crooked elipses 'gainst his glory fight,
And Time that gave doth now his gift confound.
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth
And delves the parallels in beauty's brow,
Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth,
And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow:
And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand,
Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.

do any of these lines not have 10 syllables. i though that 4,6 and 14 might be off but this was a shakeapeare poem and he could have pronounced things dif
