2025 August Archives: Cultural Myths, Perfect Movies, and Mental Illness in Literature

When you think about cultural myths, shared beliefs passed down through generations that shape how people see the world. Also known as society beliefs, it influences everything from holidays to how we treat mental health. These aren’t just old stories—they’re living ideas that stick because they explain the unexplainable. In August 2025, we dug into why some myths refuse to die, even when the facts are right in front of us.

Then there’s movies with perfect scores, films so well-made that every critic agreed: no flaws, no complaints. Also known as 100% Rotten Tomatoes, these are rare gems that prove storytelling, acting, and direction can align perfectly. We looked at the titles that earned this honor—and why they work. It’s not about special effects. It’s about truth. Emotion. Precision. These films don’t just entertain. They leave you changed.

And then there’s mental illness in literature, how books capture the quiet, crushing reality of depression, anxiety, and inner turmoil. Also known as book analysis of psychological struggles, it gives voice to experiences many feel but rarely talk about. Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar wasn’t fiction—it was a diary in novel form. We broke down what her writing reveals about depression, how it mirrors real symptoms, and why it still hits hard decades later.

What connects these topics?

They all challenge what we’re told to believe. Cultural myths tell us how things should be. Perfect movies show us how things can be—when done right. And books like The Bell Jar force us to face what we often hide: the messy, painful, human side of life. These aren’t separate threads. They’re parts of the same conversation: truth vs. illusion.

You won’t find fluff here. No vague theories. No empty praise. Just clear, honest takes on myths that fool us, films that move us, and books that save us. Whether you’re curious about why we cling to false beliefs, or why one movie earned every critic’s praise, or how a 60-year-old novel still explains modern depression—you’ll find it here. These articles don’t just inform. They make you think differently.
