*This project does contain SPOILERS for the movie "Se7en", a 1995 film staring Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt.
my NOTEBOOK
Below are the pages of my workbook and they contain my rough drafts. I used this workbook to get my thoughts down quickly and to organize my thoughts.
social STUDIES
For my social studies project I created a survey and then analyzed the data and used reasoning to solidify my results in a short essay.
ENGLISH
My English project consisted of watching the movie "Se7en" and finding the seven virtues in a movie that is supposed to be about the seven deadly sins. Then I wrote a series of paragraphs explaining where and when the seven virtues were shown.
ARTArt was one of the more technologically involved portions of my project. I created a virtual art gallery where the viewer can walk through it and read the descriptions of the paintings by clicking on it.

To move around in the museum click on the museum window, then use the arrow keys to move around(Up, Down, Rotate Left, Rotate Right). You can also use 'z' and 'x' to move left and right (side to side). To view the painting's information click once on a painting. It may refocus after the first click in that case you will have to click on the painting again to bring up the rational.
the "Se7en" VIRTUES

English Analysis
Chastity-
Mrs. Mills contacts Detective Somerset to meet with him to talk about the new place that they have moved. She is scared that this new place will only bring hardship, and she wants a better life for her unborn child. In her conversation with Detective Somerset she wonders if the problem is herself. This action along with others in the movie shows that she is seeking to be better, and the fact that she wants to do the right thing shows that she wants to be wholesome. Both of those actions show the very definition of chastity.
Abstinence-
Detective Somerset turns the homicide case down at first, but is denied. He knows that he will be retiring in the next six days and he assumes that the case will not be finished in the time that he will be on the force. His actions showed self control and restraint early on to not start something that he could not finish. Later on in the movie he decides to stay on until the case is over which changes this practice of abstinence a bit, but shows responsibility and commitment.
Liberality-
Both Detective Mills and Somerset show the virtue of Liberality. In a very early scene Mills is waiting in the rain with coffee for Somerset. He was willing to give time, in order to go get the coffee; money, to buy the coffee; and then showed nobility, to give the coffee to the other officer when Somerset declined to hot beverage.
It took Somerset a bit longer to show this virtue, but none the less he did. The night that the second case was discovered Somerset took the time to make copies of pages and lists from novels that would help Mills with the case. Somerset was giving up his time to help Mills finish the case, and put an end to a murderer.
Diligence-
As annoying as it is to say, Jonathan Doe showed numerous examples of diligence. He planned the entire year of his plan and executed it precisely. Sloth’s victim was documented almost everyday at the same time, and was left with just enough life in him to scare the officers. Jonathan also planned walking into the station at the precise time that Detective Mills and Somerset walked in. The post worker was also given specific instructions to bring the package at exactly 7 PM. The post worker did not show diligence as we know that the package came later than expected. This is a case of using a virtue for the wrong reasons.
Patience-
The Mills’ dogs showed the forgiving side of patience, and were happy to see Detective Mills when he came home.
Mr. Talbot (Somerset’s boss’s boss) had patience with the members of the press when they wanted to know about greed’s victim. He gave note that if they got out of hand he would leave, and when they started to get out of hand, he guided them back to a simpler conversation.
In the diner where Mrs. Mills shares some big news, Somerset is patient as she talks about things that don’t pale in comparison. He then is understanding of her situation and helps her to get to a better place mentally.
Altruism-
George and the other security guards at the library are kind and respectful of Detective Somerset when he enters the library after hours. They joke but they do not insult Somerset’s interjections. Likewise Somerset is also nice to the officers without wanting anything in return. Continuing with the library scene, Somerset is preparing information that will help Detective Mills with the case and does not expect anything in return.
Mrs. Mills also does not expect anything from Somerset when she invites him for dinner later the same night. She wants to get to know him and welcome him as a friend. Keeping with Mrs. Mills scenes, Somerset does not expect anything from Mrs. Mills for meeting with her in the diner to talk about her future. He meets with her to make sure everything is alright and out of the kindness of his heart.
Humility-
Somerset’s humility was subtle, as it should be. He choose to answer with a polite answer rather than boasting about his expertise. He also did not boast About finding where the little scraps that were found inside of the gluttony victim's stomach, and how they matched up with the floor, and then led to the writing on the fridge and note that then solidified the fact that this was a 7 murder series dealing with the seven deadly sins. He made sure to tell both his partner and his superior that it was as such. He stuck to the facts, and not that it wouldn't have been found had he himself not discovered it.

Virtues and Vices
Finding the numbers behind the biblical virtues is simple; set up a survey and
have people take it, then crunch the numbers. That is just the start though, then one
must analyze the information and formulate it into a response to close out the study,
so here goes. Unfortunately there is very little numerical evidence for the
relationship between virtues and how, or which, people follow them. With this in
mind I have decided to take a look at the commonly spoken reasons for my survey
results.
Diligence is the most wanted and lacking virtue, that is what my survey has
produced; the common opinion outside of my survey was that sloth, the opposite of
diligence, “is, at the very least, a hindrance or obstacle in life” (Pychyl). Another fact
is that “78 percent of Americans do not meet the daily recommendation for physical
activity. Americans are even too lazy to take the time to read manuals, and therefore
68 percent find the things they buy too confusing to use” (Feldman). The fact that
our health is at risk shows that diligence is lacking, and the idea that partaking in
sloth like activities is creating obstacles in continuing with life also proves that
concept. The persistence from doctors and society to get up and move, and to eat
better has increased but these statistics have not changed to reflect that increased
persistence. That goes to show that there is a want for diligence to be a prominent
part of the American lifestyle, but it is hard to change the country overnight.
According to my survey, 0 out of 33 people said they associated with diligence the
most, also 9 out of 33 people wrote that they wish the followed diligence better.
The 45+ group replied that they were diligent, while the under 18 group said
that they needed diligence. This would go to show that the older generation has
more skills, such as time management, and the younger group struggles with these
things. This may not come as a shock to the people who say that children do not
have the same responsibilities, or amount of time to learn their lesson.
According to my survey, 18% (6 people) of people had patience, and ten out
of 33 (30.3%) people answered that they wish they followed the virtue of patience
better. The vice of patience is wrath, and wrath is a weekly, if not daily, reality.
“2,753 people perished as a result of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
Since then, over 18,000 Americans were injured in the war in Afghanistan and over
32,000 were injured in Iraq” (Feldman). Those statistics are just a small number of
the deaths and wrath that has occurred in our nation. Some of the latest news has
been about bullying. Bullying is also a form of wrath, and it does not come as a
surprise to me that almost one third said that they wanted to follow patience better.
People referenced religion when describing why they picked a virtue 3 times
more then when they elaborated on their rating for how often they used the virtue. I
found this to be interesting because how can religion be a factor in the virtue you
follow most, yet have nothing to do with how often you follow it. Interestingly
enough, of the ten articles that I am using specifically for this paper, half of them
reference religion. The other half talk about them as ideas for today’s society and, or,
how to get around them. Another interesting point that I came across is that people
think doing an action, and thinking about an action is the same thing. This
conclusion was made after reading the responses of the survey participants for how
they showed the chosen virtue.
The sins and virtues are tied together whether we like it or not, and if we
aren’t doing one then we are doing the other. As a whole the sample of people that
took the survey showed a similar result to that of my research.

work that didn't make the CUT
I also researched two places in the bible where the seven virtues were found and started to compare the differences in the phrasing and wordage. Unfortunately, I did not find a place for this in my project, but I thought it was worth adding in.
Colossians 3: 12-14 NIV
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Colossians 3: 12-14 KJ21 Therefore, holy and beloved, as the elect of God, put on hearts of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long suffering, 13 forbearing one another and forgiving one another if any man have a quarrel against another: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. Colossians 3: 12-14 ASV 12 Put on therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering; 13 forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any man have a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also do ye: 14 and above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness. Colossians 3: 12-14 MSG 12-14 So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it. Colossians 3:12-14 GNT 12 You are the people of God; he loved you and chose you for his own. So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13 Be tolerant with one another and forgive one another whenever any of you has a complaint against someone else. You must forgive one another just as the Lord has forgiven you. 14 And to all these qualities add love, which binds all things together in perfect unity. |
2 Peter 1:5-7 NIV
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 2 Peter 1:5-7 NLT 5 In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, 7 and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone. 2 Peter 1:5-7 KJ21 And besides this, using all diligence, add to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge, 6 and to knowledge temperance, and to temperance patience, and to patience godliness, 7 and to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness charity. (2 Peter 1:5-7) Kefa II 1:5-7Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)5 For this very reason, you must apply all zerizut (diligence) to supply emunah with midah hatov (the attribute of virtue), and midah hatov with da’as (knowledge), 6 And da’as with shlitah atzmit (self-control), and shlitah atzmit with chozek (fortitude) and chozek with chasidus (piety), 7 And chassidus with ahavah shel achvah (brotherly love), and ahavah shel achvah with ahavah (agape). 2 Peter 1:5-7 MSG 5-9 So don’t lose a minute in building on what you’ve been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding, alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder, warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others. With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature in your experience of our Master Jesus. Without these qualities you can’t see what’s right before you, oblivious that your old sinful life has been wiped off the books. |
