The Shapes of Stories

Nerve (Boy meets girl): Venus meets is having a rough life with college and being an introvert, then meets a guy named "Ian" and they play a game together and basically fall in love overnight, and in  this game they're playing it gets super dark, and dared to shoot each other, but their friends get the game shut down, and they are back to being happy together.

The Sixth sense discussion questions

1.    Early in the movie, we discover that Cole's parents recently divorced. He’s attached to things that belonged to his dad (the glasses, the broken watch, and the gloves he wears because the house is so cold). Similarly, within Cole’s "tent," he has a set of religious statues. What do you think motivates him to collect these things? How were these things helpful to him as he dealt with "the ghosts" or with his classmates? When has physically holding onto something helped you get through a difficult time?

Then the people start to touch this man, and feed him like he's a god. 2) Have YOU ever experienced Cornelius? I have NOT experienced Cornelius. 3) How would the community of Lakewood Ranch benefit if Cornelius visited our town? I don't think the people in the community of Lakewood would care to experience Cornelius. I think they would find this quite odd. 4) In order of preference, upon meeting Cornelius, what would you do?     1-See Cornelius (i would look at him)     2-Feed Cornelius (toss popcorn in his mouth)     3-Touch Cornelius (poke him)  In that order...literally 5) Ask yourself, Why Cornelius? Maybe because he isn't a common person in society.
