[asharpfamily13]

Haha! This was actually pretty dern good :D

[crossedtheline87]

Well we made an A! So seeing how we simply took a day to make a project, passed the class, and randomly decided to put it on youtube, I really don't see a huge problem in that. But since you were the one that took time out of YOUR day to watch the video and comment on it in a nice and non-trashy manner, then thank you :)

[ThatGutOverDer]

Your Faggots, Actings Pretty Shit and i had to sit through english, and watch your asses acting and being very depressing.....

Must be honest heres mine:

'She walks in and smiles'

'Shoot her ass then shes always smiling'

[itsmarkyboi]

Ahaha we watched this in my english class and we were all laughin at both of you!! XD

[MrWallicimo]

you well and truly massacred this poem

[rampletrash]

Very nice.

[lrelling]

I love it!

I watched this before christmas in my english literature class and ever since I have wanted to know what the first song played was. Can anyone help me please? :)

[paintdaroses]

@xoTaylorSwiftFan13ox it is 'The River Flows in You' by Yiruma - more commonly known as 'Bella's Lullabye'...something to do with twilight?

[Evolution0369]

@paintdaroses It is 'The River Flows in You' by Yiruma but as not actually 'Bella's Lullaby' athough the two are often confused. 'The River Flows in You' was originally going to be in the Twilight films but then we replaced by a piece written for the film: 'Bella's Lullaby. Sorry to be a PC obsessionist...

i ♥ this poem & you 2 both interpret it really well! :)

[VfangzV]

this is so beautiful!!!! kudos kudos kudos!!

[nanycam12]

That was seriously amazing!

[shichi21jeca]

what was the reason why she killed the girl??

[clomcewen]

@shichi21jeca , the speaker killed Porphyria so that he is in control of their relationship & he is hers for ever. The part where it says 'vainer ties dissever,' , that means she thinks of him as less important than mabey another relationship. Where it says 'No pain felt she; I am quite sure she felt no pain.' , this suggests that mabey she wanted to die in this way? It's however you interpretate it as there is no right or wrong answer in English literature. Hope this helped! :-)

@shichi21jeca

In the poem, the speaker has pretty twisted logic, so he wants to keep the moment when she says that she loves him preserved.

[joefin100]

What is the name of the very last songg?

[joshalos1]

Wow. We're studying this (and His Coy Mistress) in english for a Compare and Contrast. I love this! It's amazing!

[romantic2]

I love the tenderness with which he handles her corpse after he's killed her. Also love that she dies in her bare feet - such a perfect image of Murdered Innocence...

[alycenwinchester]

[skinnyposter]

Brilliant stuff - well done. I'm an English teacher and I'm using this for my own class. Thanks a lot!

[aopwm]

I really really liked it. Especially the way you alternated between both the Male and Female's point of view, I never looked it into it that way before as I always regarded it as a monologue.

Nice work ^^

[dualitas]

Lovely music, really adds to the atmosphere and tone of the poem. Very good acting too :)

[beckyespera]

Loved this, well done!
