Film review – to kill a mockingbird by Harper Lee

‘To kill a mockingbird’ was written by Harper Lee in 1959, and was directed by Robert Mulligan in 1962.

Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) is a lawyer and widower, raising two small children: Scout (Mary Badham) and her older brother Jem (Phillip Alford). One summer a boy by the name of Dill (John Megna) comes to live next door with his aunt Stephanie (Alice Ghostley). The children become friends and spend the whole summer together, their childlike adventures seeming unaffected by the adult world around them. But soon you start to realise that their games and adventures have been affected by the adult world, for the children begin to learn the importance social acceptance. It can make or break your life.

Horton Foote who was the script writer for ‘to kill a mockingbird’ did a fantastic job. The script is not far from the book. Which I think was great because Harper Lee did a great job. It also makes the movie much more likable for those who have read the book, which is very hard to do because the book is always better than the movie. It would have been difficult though for Horton Foote because scout is telling the story and although there is talking some of it is scouts thinking process which is hard to turn into scripture.

Gregory Peck was made to play Atticus Finch; he did a marvellous and flawless job. There is not one thing that he had to improve on. He was so believable if you told me that it was Atticus Finch playing himself I would believe you. Mary Badham and Phillip Alford who played scout and jem also played very believable characters. These three outstanding actors made the movie ebb and flow, taking a long movie and making it seem quite short. Also Brock Peters, who played Tom Robinson, moved me and the rest of the audience I believe when he talked in the court room. He acted with great feeling, making it seem as though you were in that court room by his side seeing the injustice of the whole situation. Overall whoever casted the movie did a fantastic job. There’s not many movies that I have seen were every actor has become their character so completely.

The cinematography was brilliantly done. Although it was restricted because it was in black and white. Still the movie had a beautiful angle and lighting. So it was very good considering the unavoidable restriction of technology. Of all black and white movies that I have seen I must say that this was the best. The movie had perfect lighting which gave the movie an open and realistic feel that a lot of black and movies don’t have because of lighting restrictions.

This movie not only makes you sympathize with those who were being discriminated against, but also those who were defending them. ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ forces you to see the injustice of discrimination and inadvertently makes you relate to the characters, even if you wouldn’t usually relate to them. Overall it was a fantastic movie that combined logic with feeling and causes the watcher to think about history that is not romantic in any sense of the word. The movie brings new meaning to ‘Out of sight and out of mind’ it forces you to realise that repressing problems of any sort just means that they continue to fester until a great injustice is done.

statement of intention

My statement of intention is to create a character that is an untrustworthy narrator.

My characters name is Theresa Kingsly. She is about 12 she travels with her family in a gypsy troupe of about 20 different families which amounts to about 75 people. She lives with her family in a beautiful caravan. Her family includes her mother and father, her younger brother and her grandfather and grandmother. Her mother is a gypsy healer so there caravan is full of herbs and different concoctions that her mother makes to help the sick. Her father is a high gypsy elder and often decides when the troupe leaves and where it goes. Her younger brother is 9 and is very mischievous and is always getting in trouble with the elders. Her grandfather is quite old and doesn’t usually leave the caravan because he is blind, her grandfather is her favourite. Her grandmother wanders much of the time and has the gift of sight but she is much respected.

Theresa is unreliable because although her father is involved in the secrets of the troupe, he is not permitted to tell anyone under age. When you turn 18 you are told about the secrets of the tribe. But until then the children are left to work it out themselves.

The characteristics of Theresa will be: she is very impatient and unable to read peoples body language and the tone of their voices. She will be clumsy. Force is the only way she knows how to deal with people and she often has tantrums. She has a winy voice and a limited vocabulary. She has a slight lisp that infuriates her and she is often trying very hard not to lisp her words. So her sentances are very short and direct and she often talks really slowly and pauses when shes trying to find a word that she can say clearly. Except when she is fighting about something she is really passsionate about. Theresa is a bit of a loner. Because of her lisp she is very shy and doesn’t talk to people outside her family. So she spends a lot of time in her families caravan talking to her grandfather talking about anything.

Theresa often goes to spy on the adults when they have there secret meetings. Hearing only snipets of their converstions. She then muls over them trying to work out what it could mean. After that she will try to indorectly talk to her grandfather about what she thinks, but theresa isnt very tactfull.

mini essay

In the novel ‘Animal Farm’ by George Orwell we are confronted with the blatant use of manipulation, distortion of the truth and the willingness to lie and kill to maintain the control of others. This power struggle is retained all through the book but is very significant in chapter six and seven. Many of the characters in ‘animal farm’ fall victim to Napoleons tactics that are used to retain his control of ‘animal farm’; Napoleon bans the song ‘The Beasts of England’, the changing of the 10 commandments and the mass killings.

The first act of suppression often is something very small and insignificant. So that it builds up to something really big but because its been so gradual no one really notices until its to late. Like not being allowed to go out after dark or a song may be banned. Although in the scheme of things this may seem tiny and irrelevant, the suppression can only grow. When Napoleon bans the song ‘The Beasts of England’ no one really thought twice about it because it is so small. “It's no longer needed, comrade, In 'Beasts of England' we expressed our longing for a better society in days to come.
But that society has now been established. Clearly this song has no longer
any purpose.” Squealer says this to the animals after announcing that beasts of England, this of course is only the first of many things that become ‘frowned upon (banned)’ this small thing just leads the pigs to change the rules for their benefits.

Power and manipulation come hand in hand because to get one you must use the other. Power is a dominant theme in animal farm. Usually surrounding the pigs as they manipulate the other animals too think they are acting to do what best for them when what they’re doing is what’s best for the pigs. Squealer is often convincing the animals to think that napoleon is doing what best for them even if it means he has to li

e. 'A most terrible thing has been discovered. Snowball has sold himself to Frederick of Pinchfield Farm' squealer lies to the animals to set them against snowball to manipulate them into thinking napoleon did he right thing when he ran snowball off the farm. This is just one example of the lies and distortions of the truth, so that animals can have no doubts about the ‘Great Leader Napoleon’. And when the animals start to disagree or when the pigs believe there is a threat of some kind they make examples of innocent animals by killing them. Death is a horrible and unnecessary way of keeping people in line. Napoleon kills many animals because they have ‘betrayed’ animal farm. The pigs are always talking about how napoleon is only looking after them and that he only has their interests at heart when really he is only ever thinking of himself, and when he thinks that his lavish lifestyle is under threat he finds a new and more effective way to instil fear in his ‘comrades’ so that his power will never be taken away from him. “I do not understand it. I would not have believed that such things could
happen on our farm.” Boxer says this after the mass killing. He is shocked because one of the Ten Commandments is ‘No animal shall kill any other animal.’ This commandment and many others begin to be broken and changed by only the pigs. In the early days of the rebellion no one would have ever dreamed such a thing would happen on animal farm why would animals kill each other it’s barbaric.

Animal farm is based on actual events that happened during the Russian revolution. Chapter 6 and 7 are very significant because it is when the pigs start breaking the most basic rules for there own benefits, and because this is when you start to see the relationship between the power and suppression because one cannot occur without the other. The pigs use every tactic to remain in power and the other animals are suppressed in the process. So in the novel ‘animal farm’ it seems that everyone is afraid of something, the pigs are afraid of the animals revolting and taking away there power and the animals are afraid of the pigs taking away the idea of there precious animal farm (weather or not the animal farm is actually there dream) so in the end the pigs become what they hate and loathe the people they feared in the first place.

We have removed the sheets from the farmhouse beds, and sleep between blankets. And very comfortable beds they are too! But not more comfortable than we need, I can tell you, comrades, with all the brainwork we have to do nowadays. You would not rob us of our repose, would you, comrades?

Allegory Story

Once upon a time there where to kingdoms parted by great water. In the middle of the great water was a gigantic tower as high as the eye could see. In this tower on the highest flaw, lived a princess named Lio. She was the most beautiful woman in the whole world and she was much sought after. But because she was in the tallest tower in the very middle of the great water no one even thought about trying to get her down. In the two rival kingdoms there lived two princes Addam Sushien lived in one palace and Gregor Hubs in the other. At the age of ten they were both sent to the same boarding school to further their education. They became very close until they found out that they came from apposing kingdoms. After that they became very competitive with everything they did, if one got a girlfriend the other had to go and find a prettier one, if one got a dog the other had to get a bigger one et cetera. they got older and older and yet they still competed in everything. Many thought that as they got older they would grow out of this childish attitude. But they didn’t. They both graduated top of their class with the same grades in very subject, for it seemed no matter how much they competed with each other neither one of them was able to win. When they got home to their own castles, they looked across the great water and imagined the other having more than them, and then a thought struck them both at the same time. LIO. ‘That is how I will beat him’ they thought. ‘I will have the most beautiful wife in all the land’. So they both started plotting how they would rescue their fair princess. After months of preparations both princes set off to rescue unsuspecting Lio. As her castle was in the very middle of the great water they reached the palace at the same time! As the princes saw each other they were both overcome with rage. So they fought. Addam Sushien bombed Gregor’s ship and Gregor sent in his armed forces. They fought for years and years and no one won despite their efforts. Both princes died in action. Proving that jealousy doesn’t solve anything but ends in death and destruction, and in the end neither prince got what they desired.

Writers Commentary

uswell i got my inspiration from Tricia actually so mine is based on the same war on terror as she did but hopefully its not the same and if it is I'M SORRY TRICIA.

anyway my story is written in the fairytale style, because that's the only allegory stories ms. Wilson showed us so. so the style is simple and very direct so when your reading it you don't have to think hard about it. my story starts off with 'once upon a time' because i found it fitting that it should start that way if i wanted it to be a fairytale. it also starts with the same basic overview of the two rival castles and tells you of the beautiful princess.

i used anagrams to hide the meaning of my inspiration. but ill make them obvious now in this commentary.
George bush-Gregor hubs
Saddam Husein-Addam Sushien
Oil-Lio
i used these to show how the two princes (George bush and Saddam Husein) used Lio (oil) as just one more excuse for their unnecessary rival, they had just one more excuse to fight with one another and in the end it doesn't solve anything.

I used them going to boarding school and fighting over petty things just in a smaller scale as a kind indicator of how war is just a little boys game only people get really badly injured and many die. i wanted to show how juvenile it was.

i used this story because it happened in our generation we all know about the war on terror and the war in Iraq. its something everyone can relate to. people only a couple of years older than us are going to war and 'dying for their country' but their governments don't care just as long as they come out on top. the soldiers the working men and woman are dying for no cause their dying because of their governments greed and a stupid child rivalry to be better than the other.

Gaming questions

2)
a. Three arguments why there are no links between video games and aggression
~ It is easy to show that there is a link between violence and video games. But it is extremely hard to prove that people who don’t play video games are less violent because of it. Researchers found “no strong effects associated with aggression caused by this violent game,” said Dmitri William, the lead author of the study.
~ You can’t say that it’s related unless you have a long term study and the person has changed dramatically, and even then it could be related to hormones or any other possible effect life has on people. “I’m not saying some games don’t lead to aggression, but I am saying the data are not there yet,” Williams said.
~ Besides even if you get rid of the violent video games, that doesn’t take it out of everyday life. Violence is all around us, on the street, on the news, in movies. It’s everywhere. So you cannot without a doubt, ever prove that violent video games are the only cause of encourage violent behavior in anyone. According to Williams, researchers have suspected a strong linkage between games and aggression “but, with the exception of relatively short-term effects on young adults and children, they have yet to demonstrate this link.”

b. List two positive effects of playing video games
~ It encourages people who have trouble socializing face to face to socialize in a safer environment. You would be surprised who confident people can become when they know that they may never meet this person. “Based on my research, some of the potential gains are in meeting a lot of new people and crossing social boundaries. That’s important in a society where we are increasingly insulated from one another.”
~ not only does it encourage people to socialise more than they would normally. It also encourages team work in otherwise very insecure and secluded people. “How often can someone direct and coordinate a group of eight or 40 real people to accomplish a complex task, as they do in these role-playing games? That’s a real skill.

BOOK REPORT

'Chain Of Hearts' by Maureen McCarthy was published by penguin books Australia in 1999. Chain of hearts is a story about a 17 year old called Sophie, her aunt Fran and her mother Geraldine, and their separate lives and issues with one another. Sophie has become unmanageable at home after the car accident that killed her best friend Mai. So as a last resort after trying everything but talking to her daughter, Geraldine sends Sophie to her sister Fran. Fran reluctantly agrees. Throughout the book you learn about all their pasts and why it is so tense between them all. I chose this book because its a recount of three different people three different story's and how they lapse together for no particular reason. three different woman that all have justified reasons to hate each other and how they overcome them because their family and they love each other book because all the main characters are woman and deal with no matter what! I love this book because you get involved with all their separate story's, its so easy to see things from there perspective. Because there are three different people you see and understand there actions and understand how they justify them. there is nothing in this book that i didn't like I've read it six or seven times and i love it more and more every time. i think everyone should read this book. Granted it is more of a girlyfeminine issues. it opens your mind.

HOMEWORK

HOMEWORK
The animals ask a number of questions about the possibility of rebellion - what are they and how do they connect to real life revolutions?
In a world of oppression and poverty it is hard to imagine anything else. This novel is a metaphor for the Russian revolution, the questions are used to show the thoughts that were going through the peoples heads when they had just started to explore the idea of a rebellion. 'why should we care what happens after we are dead' this question is brought up after the death of the major and ti represents the same questions that men, woman and children would have asked in any revolution 'why should we strive for something that will never happen in our lifetimes'. It is the fear of being punished or killed that kept so many people in all rebellions quite fear of the powerful. Fear is a human condition a feeling that everyone feels, but where would we be if no one stood up for the future generations? these questions and attitudes brought forward by the animals on animal farm are nothing new they have been asked in any rebellion whether it succeeded or not.

Look at the 7 commandments - where do they come from? do you think they will be effective in ensuring old majors vision - why or why not?
down somewhere or its just not acceptable to do so in that community no matter what it is there are All communities however big or small need a basis of rules. every community has rules whether there writtenstill rules that you live by. its no different in animal farm they need the 7 commandments to guide them and something that they all live by. the animals take the 7 commandments from what they were rebelling against - Mr Jones. ' what ever goes upon two legs is an enemy' Mr Jones was a human and walked on two legs therefor it was bad or evil to do so. 'no animals shall wear clothes' 'no animals shall sleep in a bed' 'no animals shall drink alcohol' these commandments are all directly related to Mr Jones. he wore clothes, he slept in a bad and he was an alcoholic the animals thought that Mr Jones was evil therefor in their minds everything he did was evil. the 7 commandments were not particularly effective because in rebbeling to one extreme they became the other extreme and that doesnt work because you end up becoming the same thing.

sophie is my soul sister lol
now back to my story..........
so tricia and madi(the narrator) arent that sad even though morgan is dead. tricia's arm hurt because of the spider bite and manny licked it better
ohhh maddie just did the best greys anatomy refrence ever
a minute later tricia gets the refrence and laughs
tricia said thank you. and she swore she would never clean her arm again. so off they went after manwidge the evil witch. they where hot on her trail. when they came to a really big mountain there was no other way to get around it. so they had no other choice but to go over it. because manny's nose assured him that manwidge was just over the mountain. the great big huge mountain was very dark and scary looking. but knowing there was no other way to save her beloved tricia decided to go on. they walked for hours and hours up and up through the drak and steamy forrest tricia was getting very hot and took off her jumper. suddenly there in the middle of the path was maddie the patchwork elephant she was quite a small elephant but elephants are really big so she still blocked the wholle path.
'help me help me' said maddie ' i've been stuck here for ages' she pleaded tricia felt very bad for maddie and decided that even though they were going to loose track of manwigde that they would help maddie anyway. and also they had to because she was blocking there only way over the mountain because the trees were so thick on both sides.
find out how they get maddie out of the forrest next time.

p.s. I LOVE MY SOUL SISTER

MORGAN HOW DARE YOU CHOOSE ICE-CREAM OVER ME. THAT REALLY HURT MY FEELINGS.

My story continued……..
So Manny, Tricia and Harry packed there lunches and went on there journey to free manny from the horrible spell that manwidge put him under. Now that Manny was a hound he had an amazing sense of smell, so he could track manwidge the horrible evil witch. so they went on there way. still tricia and mannys feelings were developing untill they couldnt even look eachother in the eyes for fear of seeing rejection. after walking for a couple of hours tricia got tired so she decided to ride harry. she got on harry only to find a spider on his back. tricia being fearless asked the spider its name.
' my name is morgan' said the spider. morgan then bit tricia on the arm very hard. this took tricia by surprise and accidently killed her. but tricia or the narrator (madi) didnt mind because morgan had been mean to them both

Once apon a time there was a girl called tricia she had black hair and pretty eyes. she was a princess in a far away castle. she had a trusty steed called harry and a big dog called manny. tricia didnt like dogs much but manny was different he was a handsome prince who had been turned into a hound by an evil witch called Manwigde. she had fallen in love with simon but when she found out that he was secretly in love with tricia she got really mad and turned him into tricia's most hated animal. but it didnt work because tricia found out that the dog that was following her was manny and no longer hated him. Tricia decided that she would save manny on her trusty steed, Harry, and manny decided to come. so off they went on there magical adventure to find the evil witch, Manwidge, and make her change Manny back to human form.
