In today’s world we are seeing a growing concern for our younger generation that is growing up with the struggles of obesity, many of them are starting to deal with the same health issues that were isolated to adults just a few years ago. In the movie Fed Up the director Stephanie Soechtig wanted to open our eyes to the issue that has gone unnoticed for so long, that fact that the food industry has been hiding the truth about our eating habits. In the movie they spoke about, “how the soda industry fund research study that help to say that soft drinks have nothing to do with obesity” (Soechtig, 2014).
I beliveve that this movie display great examples of interpersonal communication because of all the divergent issues and perosonalities within the characters. It shows various kinds of communication concpets that were very pragmatic and made it easy to put ourselves in the character’s perspectives

As they grew up, they bonded more and they start to fall in love with each other.

At the beginning of the movie “Up” viewers are quickly exposed to a transformation of Carl Fredricksen from childhood to old age. For the duration of the movie, Carl remains a 78-year-old man, who at first appears grumpy, sad, and guilty at times, and surely missing his late wife. Carl is often shown in a scene talking to his deceased wife as if she were really there, reminiscing of memories spent together, and admiring old photographs of the two of them. Being a widow took a definite toll on Mr. Fredricksen, and he showed obvious signs of depression to be living without his wife. Towards the beginning of the film, spectators are familiarized with Carl’s habits. Often, he is yelling at people to get off of his property, slamming his door, and spends all his time alone; he rarely smiles and does not seem to have any purpose to his life. In accordance with the research, Mr. Fredricksen seems to be struggling with his mental health and shows evidence of a sedentary lifestyle.Luckily, Mr. Fredricksen meets a young boy named Russell who turns his life around.
"Split" is a rated PG-13 horror movie released on January 20, 2017 that was not only written, but also directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Shyamalan is renowned in the entertainment business for his movies filled with a great deal of twists and turns. An example of some of the movies that he has written and directed with such a style are "The Sixth Sense" as well as "The Village". Split is no different and bares M. Night Shyamalan's signature style of suspenseful movies accompanied by many twists and turns.
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.
Effective communication is one of the most important things to maintain a happy relationship. Communication will help to create a better atmosphere and to know what are the interests, thoughts and feelings of your loved one. All romantic relationships need a lot of communications from both sides. The main factor is interpersonal communication, which couples are able to overlap environments and create a relationship. We reviewed the movie “The Breakup” and have found the concepts of Integrating, differentiating, and terminating. This movie shows how ineffective communication can dissolve a relationship. The lack of communication is the main factor why Brooke and Gary break up. This couple tends to rely on other people instead
Throughout the film Do the Right Thing, we continuously observe racial conflict that builds up to such an extreme point that it leads to a fight for power. This movie portrays the struggles and realities of a neighborhood with white and black African American people. This can be seen in many instances for example when Buggin ' Out, Radio Raheem, and Smiley march into Sal 's and demand that Sal change the Wall of Fame. Another vital instance shows the height of power struggle. It is when the huge fight starts in the street and results in Raheem being killed by a white police officer.
I found the play to be far superior in comparison to the original film version as the movie's writing glorified modern American consumerism. A post war financial boom brought a great amount of advertising and promotion, and the movie was overflowing with blatant celebration of products. The presence of sexism as well of the obvious lack of racially diverse main characters, was a big problem for me in my terms of likability of the movie. The play was able to strip itself of the gaudiness/lack of diversity and that left room for a brilliantly crafted sub-plot with a well rounded cast and smartly written script.
The thematic arc in the movie Up is a roller coaster of emotions relating to Carl’s physical and emotional journey. Its starts out with Carl and Ellie as young children; innocent and looking for adventure. They both shared the same obsession, which is going on an adventure to Paradise Falls.

Then Ellie finds out she can’t have children and there’s a negative, but then it goes back up and then down again and again as they continue on with their lives together. Eventually Ellie passes away, which is a very low point for Carl. Then Carl moves on with his life, and meets Russell. Eventually he finds
