Beowulf-like Hero

     In today’s world there are many Beowulf characters. Maybe not in the real world but in the world of movies there is plenty. One that comes to mind would be Jack Sheppard from the show “LOST”. Jack is like Beowulf in that he faces death numerous times from the black smoke (dragon) but finds a way to overcome adversity multiple times before finally killing the source of the black smoke once and for all. The smoke was extremely persistent and wanted to rule the island that the survivors were stuck on and in turn rule the world.
