Finding Dory Essay
Attending the presentation of the film, “Finding Dory” by oscar- winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton on February 27, 2017, at O.C.Johnson Elementary School, and the admission was free. The directors of the film are Andrew Stanton and Angus MacLane. The film’s plot is about a friendly but forgetful blue tang fish named Dory, voiced by Emmy-winning talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, begins a search for her long-lost parents, and everyone learns a few things about the real meaning of family along the way. The significant actors in this film are Albert Brooks who’s voice is used to bring the character Marlin to life;, Ed O’Neil voice is used for the character Hank. As well as, Destiny who’s is voiced by Kaitlin Olson and the son of Marlin Nemo who is voiced by Hayden Rolence. With the fact that main characters of this film are the same as a previous film “Finding Nemo” which were well cast. The other characters in this film were also well cast and all voiced a believable role. This film was very interesting to watch, it was really hard to pull …show more content…

Nonetheless, the film Finding Nemo’s title character has one undersized fin and isn’t a strong swimmer, but adversity and a similarly fin-impaired role model build his confidence. Similarly, Finding Dory has a character with a debilitating handicap who develops coping mechanisms, gets help where she can, forges ahead when help isn’t available and succeeds on her own terms. In a way, this is another “Believe in yourself and you can do anything” story. The actors of this film did a very well execution of their roles. With the majority of the audience being a different age group as I, it is possible that their interpretation of the film is different. This film is worthwhile, if there is ever the opportunity to experience this film I would encourage to take that

    Idealism describes the belief or pursuit of a perfect vision often based upon unrealistic principles. This pursuit is often contrasted and opposed by truth. The truth and reality in an individual’s life is what enables this person to remain grounded and down to earth. An individual must set themselves high expectations in order to be their best, but they must also acknowledge the fact that everything they desire is not achievable. The imbalance of idealism and truth in an individual’s life can have calamitous effects. It is significant in an individual’s life because it can lead to the deterioration of an individual’s sanity, destruction of family relationships and ultimately death. This is exemplified in Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller, by Willy Loman. Willy spends his whole life pursuing the American Dream. This pursuit leaves him in debt and lacking less than a sliver of sanity. This man lacks the capacity to face the truth; the reality of his situation. The negative effect that his dream has on his family and life is simply overlooked and ignored. As Willy’s life swerves out of control, he tumbles deeper into the abyss of his idealism, to a point of no return.…

There is a lot that goes on in the story, involving many things in the war of her districts. It is causing a rebellion in the districts. Katniss takes stock of her new position as a rebel in District 13. Only three victors were saved from the arena from the last book from the Hunger games series; Beetee who is an old man from District 3, also known as Volts, Finnick who is the the victor from District 4 and Katniss's first ally and Katniss herself, but Peeta wasn't one of them – he's still missing, along with other victors, Enobaria who is the female tribute from District 2, Johanna who is the tribute from District 7, and Annie who wasn't in the Quarter Quell but was arrested when the arena blew up. Katniss is still haunted by Snow and fears for Peeta's life. The book starts in District 12, which has been reduced to ashes. Katniss alone wanted to see the district herself.

    Mean Girls Essay

    • 3 Pages

    First of all, a similar representation of the group of ‘popular kids’ is evident in Mean Girls and Destroying Avalon. The popular kids are known to us as the ‘A group’ from the novel and as the ‘Plastics’ from the movie. To begin with, the people from the Plastics and the A group are represented in both texts as the cliché or stereotypical bunch of popular people. By saying this, it is being implied that they demonstrate the hackneyed qualities of people with popularity. Both groups are stereotypically shown as being judgemental, two – faced, superficial, mean and exclusive, just to name a few. For example, the people are shown as being two faced and an example of this in Mean Girls is when Regina is talking to Cady and comments on a girl’s skirt. She comments: “Oh my god, I love your skirt. Where did you get it?” However, after the girl leaves, she turns back to Cady and says: “That’s the ugliest f-ing…
