Speach Stand by Me Analysis

Applying these different ideas to the film can help people to better understand the storyline. Of all the criticisms identified in the movie, the most interesting were in relation to archetypes. One of the archetypes used in Stand By Me refers to Chris. Throughout the film, Chris is more of the parent, or leader, of the four boys. From the very beginning, and

In the Last Stand, written by Nathaniel Philbrick he discusses a big leader in the Civil War, George Armstrong Custer and how he led his troops with reckless courage. Philbrick wrote this book which can be viewed in many ways: a bloody massacre that is a big part of American history, or a tale of crazy arrogance and even unmatched bravery. One way that this book can be viewed as is the Last Stand being viewed as an account of a well-known battle that encapsulates the treatment of Native Americans during the “Indian Wars.” The next option is that the Last Stand is a retelling story of a history that does not glorify the United States Army in the Indian Wars, but shows the hubris and reckless of the leaders and army. Finally, the Last Stand can be viewed as a double meaning, both the last stand for Custer and the Last Stand for the Sitting Bull and the Lakota Sioux. In this essay, I’m going to discuss the ways in which Custer leads his troops and how he was a powerful leader during this time.

The stage of development theorized by Erikson that is most identical to Chris is the industry versus inferiority stage. Several times in the movie Chris wonders if he is worth anything. He tells Gordy that he is never going to leave the town and go to college because he’s just not that smart like Gordy.

George and Lennie are different as they have each other for support, friendship and much more. Lennie is able to give George hope, hope that things will get better by continually talking about the dream of ‘livin’ of the fatta the land’. This in turn brightens George’s spirits and motivates him to keep on working hard and believing that ‘we got a future’. Even though Lennie helps George in many physiological ways, he also helps him physically. Lennie’s pure size and strength is so great that he is often compared to a ‘bear’ by Steinbeck; an animal which has immense power. This strength helps them gain work as ‘man, (Lennie) can work’. Without Lennie, George would have much difficulty finding manual labour jobs due to his small size.

Bryce enjoys being around his friends and enjoys the extracurricular activities they get to participate in. He does a great job in expressing his idea and viewpoint on things he is passionate about and receiving feedback on even though I think sometimes feedback from his peers doesn’t matter to him. Most times in group or when with teachers Bryce is the example child or the child that would be most trusted to be the leader but if chosen not to be the leader he does good in following directions.

In the novel Of Mice and Men, Lennie is constantly battling himself. throughout the story, Lennie must learn and remember to fit in with the other characters who are much brighter than he is. In addition, he must learn how to follow rules he can 't remember. After Lennie killed Curley 's wife, Lennie begins to argue with himself saying “ “I done a real bad thing,” he said. “I shouldn’t of did that. George’ll be mad.An’…he said…an’ hide in the brush till he come. He’s gonna be mad. In the brush, till he comes and runs to the brush”. When Lennie goes to the bush. He yells at himself from an imaginary of Aunt Clara “I tried, Aunt Clara, ma’am. I tried and tried. I couldn’ help it.”, “You never give a thought to George,” she went on in Lennie 's Voice. “He been doin’ nice things for you alla time. When he got a piece a pie you always got half or more’n half. An’ if they was any

Chris makes sure his son gets sleep and gets to eat. When he eats at the restaurants, his son is the only one eating. He wants to keep him happy, so he took him to a football game and got him a basketball. This shows that Chris cares for his son and he wants to keep him happy. This also shows that Chris wants to keep his son safe. Chris was able to take care of his son and to make him happy. Chris wanted him to have a better experience in life. Through perseverance, Chris achieves his goals by taking care of his son.

Chris is a charismatic young man, but takes extensive measures to ensure he does not become too close with anyone. By going out into the wild without so much as a letter to his parents,

     During Chris’s journey he never really opens up to anyone about his family. He doesn’t really show any affection towards them and if any it would be toward his sister Carnie. He writes in a letter to her stating that he is going to divorce his parents. The last time his parents saw him was after his graduation. Chris told his parents “ I think I’m going to disappear for a while” and that is the last they ever heard of him again.

Lennie is the gentlest person anyone could meet, he just sometimes cannot remember if he has met them or not. Lennie’s exterior is a rugged, burley kind of guy, but in this book, he is just a big teddy bear who would never dream of hurting anyone. Yet again, looks can be deceiving. Although he is willing to pick up a dead mouse so he could “pet it with [his] thumb while [they] walked along (6), there are people that are incredibly intimidated by him and his strength. For instance, Curley wanted to beat George up mainly because he was bigger than he was. Even though people associate with him, they don’t treat him like one of their own. Lennie is the muscles, that’s all. His physical appearance contradicts his mental appearance. From a distance, Lennie is a huge man who seems as though he could beat someone to the ground if they looked at him wrong, but in reality, he is nice to anyone. Due to George, Lennie can actually confront the world. Most times Lennie is not mentally stable

The film showcased Gordie’s thoughts and growth with his friends. From his exterior of a young lad, wimpy and afraid, he had managed to mature in to an independent and confident individual. In the beginning of the film, he had been described, by himself, as a weird guy, since he wasn’t like his late brother, who was the favorite. He loved writing and was good at it, but the unfortunate reality he was in was comparison from his parents, who would rather have a popular kid with ‘normal’ friends later, made him diss his own passion. And this practice developed and later on gave him enough fright to accept his invisibility.

D.) Of the four categories from the survey, Chris would most likely be classified under 'power.' A recurring theme so far is that Chris is not afraid to flex his leadership muscles every now and then. He can more of 'make you' as opposed to an 'ask you' leader at times. What's odd is that all his power comes from his love of the members of the youth group and their mutual love for him. In any other circumstance, Chris would appear overly aggressive, but in the context of the youth group, you would hardly notice

My first reaction to the photo was, why is there only one person that is red and why is he not interacting with everyone else? There are many people in the photo, but the red person is standing there all by himself looking kind of confused on what is going on around him. If I came up with a title for this photo it would be “Standing Alone.” I would give it that title because even though there are many people around, someone can still feel left out and all by themselves. I think the author’s purpose for taking this photo was to show that not everyone will fit in with other people in the world, and there will become a time in life that you feel all alone. I feel this picture has a bigger meaning than many will realize, and at first it might be
