Juno Film Analysis

I believe family is such an important part in this family’s life because they are all that each other has got. They hold close to their family because they have been through so much and they see death all around them, so they see the importance of their family. They also are taught from a very young age to respect their elders in the family because they have seen much more and know much more about all aspects of life. They are viewed as wise and knowledgeable and the young family members cherish the opportunity to learn from them. In the movie Gran Torino one

The above quote states, “the family”, it does not say, “my family” and Vanessa keeps on referring to the house as “the Brick house”, it is never referred to as a home, this ties in to the idea of entrapment within this family and house that Vanessa feels estranged too. In contrast, all the family members had decided to cope in different ways, which included loneliness and entrapment within themselves. The grandfather only desired lone time, “[t]hen he went down to the basement by himself” (Laurence 77). It seems as though, the grandfather goes down into the basement every time he is faced with a hard situation. One of Vanessa’s uncles that lived in Toronto came for the funeral and his way of dealing is the least healthy, “Uncle Terence went straight into the kitchen, brought out his pocket flask, and poured a hefty slag of whiskey for himself” (Laurence 78). All the different ways that the family members decided to cope is very important because they all show Vanessa how she might consider dealing with future deaths. In brief, loneliness and entrapment is an unhealthy type of environment for children to be around, there are different ways that theses aspects are shown within this story; silences and the feelings of uselessness; neglect during hard times; and, seeking solitary and the help of a bottle.

Throughout the movie Vanessa was scared that Juno would back out of giving her the baby since someone had previously done so. Juno’s decision to stick with her plan to give the baby to Vanessa changed her life forever. Reitman used these techniques to show how your don’t need two parents to have a family. The perfect family is considered to be a father, a mother, a son and a daughter but this scene shows us that Vanessa is a kind and caring mother and she realises that everything does not have to look perfect to have a good

The film “Juvies” really made me think about how the criminal justice system treats young children. Before watching the film, I was under the impression that children were treated fairly and with care when they commit a crime. After all, they are just kids. However, to my surprise, this was not the case. Many children have been cheated by the law because they are put through the adult system and are not given a fair trial. Meanwhile, these children are expected to make the rational decisions that an adult would make. There is biological evidence that kids do not have the ability to control impulsive behavior because their brains are underdeveloped. Thus, I believe this system is extremely unfair because children are not protected in adult prisons, which makes it very difficult for them to succeed once they are released back into the free world.

One of the earliest memories she had that describes the way she grew up, was getting burns all over her body after trying to roast hot dogs over a fire, and getting sent to the hospital for it. Freedom was present in the family, discussing how the parents and children would go out and explore around in the middle of the night, look at the stars, and take drives or walks whenever they felt like it. Despite this, her family lived a very poor and unconventional childhood, which included events like her dad claiming the FBI was after them, living in a house with no sewer and fire system, or scraping maggots off of old food and still eating it. If they had a bloody cut from falling on the ground, normal parents would wrap them up in a bandage and tell them to stay home, but the Walls’s would wrap up the wound, and send them back outside to play again, which perfectly describes the philosophy her parents raised them up in. Rex promised his children he would build The Glass Castle if he struck it rich in the gold mine, which would be a building completely made out of glass and be ran on solar panels. Some of the most memorable memories included a point where a neighbor almost raped Jeanette and the time child services came and tried to take them away. Eventually, Jeanette along with her oldest sister, Lori, started working and

Juno's actions did affect those around her. Her father, her step-mother, her best friend, Paulie, and the Lorings'. Her disorder could have potentionally lead her to seeking comfort in another person, Paulie, and through that they had a child. The child's development affected everyone involved. Juno's relationship with Paulie was very off again and on again. She acted as if she did not want a relationship with him but once he spoke to another girl, she was

Firstly how does the novel show the theme of family in the novel. An example from the novel is when Ada wants to move to the city to find a job in the city.

Family is expressed in diverse ways. Mama strongly believes in the importance of family throughout the book. She continues to try to keep them together by fulfilling their dreams before hers.

Her dream has been deferred since she and her husband moved into the apartment that the Youngers still inhabit. Every day, her dream provides her with an incentive to make money.

She wanted them to know that she did the right thing by buying the house, thinking it would make her family happy again.

The novel, night, is about a young jewish boy, who expiecence the hardships of going through the holocaust.

The topics of the novel truly explain the traumatizing experience that the young boy, Eliezer Wiesel, went through during the darkest moment of his life and global history. The Irony in the novel deepen the meaning of story and gave great examples on how he feel during that point of time.

What is family in your opinion? Family can be a source of support, compassion, optimism, love and happiness, but family can also be a cause of depression, betrayal, hurt and pain. Family is not always determined based on having the same DNA but it is the relationships that people can make or have with one another. Family can consist of several different people like, friends, co-workers, classmates, a community, etc... Some family members can be your worst enemies because they have the most information of secrets to bring a relative down. Being able to trust a person, depend on them, and be carefree is a person that can be valued as being a part of a family.

Inside the setting of film industry, the film Titanic by James Cameron has a place with epic sentiment/disaster sort. The movie, released in 1997, was a worldwide film industry hit because of the fact that the director gave measure up to significance to history, fiction and sentiment.
