COURAGEOUS

The story is about four police officers who serve and protect their community and their being in the ‘fatherhood’ phase. The story has content about drugs and violence.

On the first part of the movies when one of the characters, Nathan Hayes, almost hijacks his car but he is not worry about that he cares what is inside and it is his son. I see the character as protective to his child and he also said in the movie that he move to that place so that his family has a better and slow pace living. He was also strict to his daughter when it comes to dating because the daughter was so young but later in the movie he mends to his daughter. He also never met his biological father and he some other time went to its grave and forgives his father.
Another character Adam Mitchell was more supportive to his daughter and more distant to his son. But when the tragedy strikes the death of his daughter he was devastated and after the incident he read about fatherhood in the Bible. He reconnects to his son.
Another character Shane Fuller is divorced maybe he was influenced because his parents were divorced when he was young but he has still connection to his son although the mother he thinks ‘poison’ the mind of his son. Later in the movie he was the one stealing drugs from the evidences of police. He was arrested and imprisoned. He asks Adam to look after his son and takes his responsibility about the crime.
Also one of the main characters, David Thompson, was survived his rookie year and I think he is not experienced in using a real gun. Also reveals in the movie that he has a child when he was in college and abandoned the girl he impregnates when it does not want abortion. He later meets his child.
The story is encouraging to watch to all those people and to make their lives

    Ordinary courage is a book that tells the story of an ordinary man who is inlisted in the continental army in the revolutionary war. Joseph Plumb Martin is the young man fighting in this war, at the time he entered he was just a mere 16 year old kid but by the time his time in the continental army was up he became a man. This is a first person memoir of what it was like for a regular person living in a war zone, and dealing with the everyday fears of food shortage, low morale, and danger of attack. This is something that many people in todays world could not handle because even some of the old guys in the military now can handle it. How many sixteen year olds can you say have the maturity to handle this kind of pressure, this book did not glorify the war the way others usually do, the book showed the way the war really was it was brutal and ugly. The revolutionary war was the birth of the nation the same way that Joseph Martin grew up it was really the birth of a man. He grew up alongside the United States. The author wants to show how it was for an average soldier to fight in that particular war, and he is successful in doing so. He wants to strip away any illusions that the reader might have of the nature of war. He writes that he does not want to paint himself as anything like a hero, for he does not see himself as a hero. He sees the war as a terrible experience with suffering and not heroism as the main feature, and the way the story was written you can tell that the war was not glorified. Martin believes in the princibles and ideals that the war was based on, but he was determined to show that the war that was supposed to bring those ideals to reality was actually a very dirty and bloody war.…

    For example, the character Paul D is a character that falls in and out of the story. In the beginning of the book, Paul D temporarily stays with Sethe setting the tone that Paul D, Sethe, and Denver could all work together as a family. “The shadows of three people still held hands.” (Morrison 49) As explained in the quote, the three of them held hands via shadow when they went to the carnival and seemed like everything would work out in harmony, all until Beloved was brought into the picture and throws off the balance in the house. The importance of family is also explained when Denver, Beloved, and Sethe develop a relationship upon each other developing the concept of she is “mine”. “You are mine”,( repeated three times by each character)( Morrison217) A final example of love for family is the point in the book when Sethe killed Beloved for her own benefit to protect Beloved from being raised into…

    One of the characters to critique would be the father. Just like God, our Father, he is the father of his son. In the story, he gives his son what he asks for. When his son departed from the family with the money, he irresponsibly spent it all, and then returned home. The father welcomed him home as if he had never left. The quote, “Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet,” (Line 22) is a suitable example of forgiveness. His son considered what he did as a sin and asks for forgiveness, and his father gave him that and more. Just like with God, if you sin and ask for forgiveness, you will be forgiven. So, you could say that the son's father could be compared to our Father in many ways.…
