Film Appreciation Reflection Paper My Film Viewing Journey As I’m writing this paper I have to think back to the beginning of this semester and what motivated me to register for this course.

Appreciation When someone brings up the word appreciation‚ one may have many stories to tell about whom they appreciate and why they appreciate them. Having appreciation shows how much one truly cares about something and their attitude towards different people and things. Some people need to realize that what they have compared to others is a gift that was given and need to appreciate that‚ whereas some unfortunate people are struggling to make ends meet with what was given to them.

He’s battling his mind over what he wants so the increase of instruments and pace in the second stanza
