Formulation of Constructive Relations
The two artifacts I chose to write about are the films The Notebook and Titanic. The Notebook is a romantic film directed by Nick Cassavetes and based on the best-selling novel written by Nicholas Sparks. The two main characters are played by Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams who are madly in love. The film was released May 20th of 2004. The next is Titanic, it is a romantic film directed by James Cameron and was released November 1st, 1997. Leonardo DiCaprio plays Jack and Kate Winslet plays Rose, the two star-crossed lovers that meet on the ship. The aspect of language I will be comparing between the two artifacts is the emotional aspect and how deeply emotions play a role in language. In order to achieve a stable relationship, one must be able to communicate using constructive, affectionate and caring language.
In The Notebook, Allie (Rachel McAdams) meets Noah (Ryan Gossling) at a carnival. When first meeting him she isn 't interested. But after talking and getting to know Noah the two fall deeply in love. They share everything about their lives and communicate on a very deep level, just by the way they talk to each other you can tell they are mad for one another. Allie is forced to move away at the end of summer to go back to her real home with her parents. The night before they leave, Allie and Noah get into an argument and go back and forth about breaking up, which doesn 't give them a chance to talk before Allie leaves. Noah writes, but Allie 's mother keeps the letters out of Allies sight, causing Allie and Noah to have no contact and making it seem as if Noah didn 't want to talk to Allie. Allie gets engaged to a wealthy man, but soon after meets back up with her long lost love Noah. She is forced to choose between keeping her social status or being with the love of her life.
In Titanic, Rose (Kate Winslet) meets Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio)

I think this is mostly because my group did not communicate every well. When in our groups , felt like I talked too much about the papers because neither of my two group members said much about one another papers. I felt like I didn 't get as much feedback as I would if we were to peer edit the way we did before. One thing I changed in my paper is my thesis statement. I feel like before it was too lengthy and hard to get the point. Also, I changed common grammatical errors. I enjoyed this assignment because it was very open and gave a variety of ways to talk about language. I like both of these movies, and it helped me to really look into them and understand a lot of the mind sets of the characters.
