Example sentences for: bullock

How can you use “bullock” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Critics find Waiting to Exhale director Forest Whitaker's latest chick flick guilty of the genre's worst defects: tear-jerking melodrama, shots of little girls with stuffed animals, and the "emotional range of a sympathy card" (Roger Ebert, the Chicago Sun-Times ). Some predict that Sandra Bullock's performance--as a prom queen who returns to her hometown after her husband cheats on her--will only deepen her midcareer funk.

  • The best reason for seeing Forces of Nature --a sporadically funny but uneasily revisionist screwball comedy in which straight-arrow Ben Affleck is tempted from his imminent nuptials by free spirit Sandra Bullock and assorted natural disasters--is a scene in which the heartsick jock ex-boyfriend (David Strickland) of Affleck's fiancee (Maura Tierney) sings an a cappella version of Phil Collins' "Against All Odds (Take a Look At Me Now)" into her ear in the middle of a party.

  • Here he goes into other shadowy corners of the biography--the 1931 suicide of Hitler's half-niece Geli Raubal; rumors about irregularities in Hitler's sexuality and physiognomy (what Hitler biographer Alan Bullock calls the "one-ball business"); the endlessly debatable question of when exactly Hitler made up his mind to launch the Final Solution; and, thorniest of all, the question of his sincerity, the degree to which he believed what he said and believed in what he did.

  • A clue for COCK might thus come to read: number one in the pecking order dominates hens and crows (a quizzical statement, unless the word crows is read as a verb) or even: creature with a cow's head and a bullock's rump found in a coop (first letter of cow plus last three letters of bullock ).

  • Bullock can find it in her heart to forgive me.
