my family has always supported me throughout my life, through ups, and downs. Your family is the most important thing in life, they are the ones that shaped the basis. You grew up next to them, you learn their ways of doing things and make them the happiest they can be.  Some children grow out of the ways their parents view the world, and this could become an issue in some families. The conservative family of Lucky and her husband, Krishna are very stuck on the idea of traditional same-sex marriage. Even though both Lucky and Krishna are gay, they are forced to be together. Not only them but in many families like Nishas, Lucky's first (female) lover. Even though Lucky is dealing with her problem pretty well, she tries to save Nisha from marrying a guy, like she did. Which is very ironic in a way. She is trying to prevent someone to go through the mistakes that she went through.  I do feel like it is an intense story in the way there are multiple family/relationship pr...

I liked Cosmopolis in a weird way... Cosmopolis takes place in the year 2000, in a single day. It follows Eric Packer, a very privileged founder of a big financial company. The story is very direct and sad. I don't think the author saw the limousine as necessarily a car or vehicle, but more a path or journey of destruction. There must have been a reason why he wanted that haircut at the other side of town. Maybe he wanted to live, do something else than what he does every single day of his life. Maybe because he was so good at predicting the economy at work, he actually knew he was losing money along the way and knew what he was getting himself into from his first words. Privilege, a strong topic in this novel and movie. Eric is a young, handsome man, who usually gets what he wants. Surrounded by people outside his world/bubble (limousine) that do not get anything they ask for. Eric becomes more and more curious, exiting his bubble until he finds himself at gunpoint. Privileg...

I have to be honest and did not think anything special about a female superhero until I watched the movie last year. Wonder Woman definitely portrays the feeling of creating something new and inspiring. My Wonder Woman Themepark will have various attractions. Mostly that empathizes the meaning of Marston's Wonder Woman creation, to show the world that women aren't anything less than men, and to inspire girls. Showing off her strength and willpower. My main attraction will go through the land of the Amazons where there would only be female dressed up actors. Since Marston's audience in the 1940's onwards were mostly male, everyone is welcome, but the main target audience would be females. There will be multiple small features such as learning to battle with a personal instructor.  The big attraction will go through the rooms and environments of the Amazons, showing off the features and history of Wonder Woman. Things such as the early costume designs of Wonder Woma...

As a foreigner, True Grit hit all the key points of the stereotypical American 'wild west' we here. Shooting, killing, adventures with horses, and the greed and stubbornness have their place too. The book was surprisingly told from a very young girl's perspective. However, I personally never saw her as a 14-year-old. She had way more greed, desire, grit as the book calls it. The characters Mattie, Rooster, and LaBoeuf all had their differences, which made very interesting combinations. Rooster is a character that has little left to live or care for. In the book and both movies it plays out a little bit different, but Rooster has more or less nobody left around him. He became someone important to Mattie in the end when she requests his grave to be placed on her farmland. That topped it all off for me as one of the best moments in the film. The revival of someone caring for him. You can, however, see at select moments throughout, that Rooster does care about Mattie. As mu...
