The film "Whats eating Gilbert Grape?" tells us a lot about one person and a family in general. This picture can tell us a lot about this family as they have suffered through quite a bit together whether it be family related or another problem. This picture gives shows mi-seen scene as it tells us a story within the whole frame. You can see that the house is on fire and that everything looks old and dusty in the background of the frame. That's because this picture tells us that the Grape family has suffered embarrassment because of their mother Bonnie. Gilbert tells the rest of his family that their mother doesn't need to suffer again so, they decide to remove everything out of the house and light it on fire. This is because they do not want a scene to be formed and want a rebirth of the character Gilbert and the family as a whole as it is an opening to a new Grape family.

This picture shows Arnie and Gilbert celebrating their tradition of always watching the trailers pass by every year when Arnie is about to turn a certain age.We're also shown a diegesis with this shot because the picture is showing us a story that will unfold to another story. We're shown that Arnie can run everywhere he wants as Gilbert is always chasing after him which is telling us that Gilbert is full time responsibility of watching his brother. This picture is soon going to show us that Gilbert will start to become overwhelmed of taking care of his brother. Soon as time will pass Gilbert will start to get more and more trapped with his responsibility of watching Arnie and maybe have a chance to become "Free" for once.

Just me

 

This image here represents film and I because the quote "Forever Strong" is a movie about a boy who learns his lesson from getting a DUI. I am a rugby player as well as our character in this film "Rick Penning," who has potential in the sport but, is very stubborn to play with his rival team. Along his rugby journey he meets his rival team who are friendly people but, with his attitude of playing with his old team he doesn't show any respect to his rival team that he joins. Rick plays for himself only as his new team tells him that it is a team game but, decides to not really care about what his team thinks. When I first started the sport it was just to play and nothing more than that. Rick and I relate because we both learn that the sport isn't only to play but, to learn about brotherhood and leadership from your team and to become forever strong as a person. From this film you can learn many lessons from it, it's an awesome movie to watch but, within it there is deeper meaning to the movie then just the amusement of it.

Wrestling has been a big impact on my life it has changed me for better. Ever since I was young I have always looked up to my brothers, as they were my idols. One of my brothers was a big influence to me because everything he did I wanted to do and be just like him. When he had started to wrestle I never thought that I would have ever joined the sport. After watching a few of his matches I realized that the sport didn't look so bad and gave it a try. The sport ended up growing onto me and ever since that day, it has been one of the best impacts on my life. The sport itself teaches you the hardships you have to go through to be capable of committing yourself to the sport. Without this sport it would of never made me the person I am today because, it has taught me a lot about brotherhood, leadership, determination, and commitment.

Back in the day when I was a little kid I use to see those shows or movies where there would be that one person who could do the coolest things. Growing up I had a friend who was quite young and he could do all sorts of cool things that involved front flips, back flips, and even more. I never quite knew how those movements could be done because of how scary it was actually trying to learn how to do it. I remember when I got a trampoline the first thing I did was start learning how to do flips. The feeling of being so determined to learn how to do something that looked as cool as that just kept rising and rising. After many attempts and finally nailing that one movement you wanted to learn it just feels amazing especially when its on the ground. With tricking all you can do is have no regrets and to not turn back. When you're going for a move all you think about is "Am I going to land?" or "Am i going to fail?" you should never have regrets when you are tricking because its taught me not to be afraid of chasing what I want.
