Peter and the wolf


This movie is a short film. It was a non-fearful boy who has 2 bird friends which is the bird and the duck. The cat belonged to Peter and the grandfather for years. His grandfather never wanted Peter to go to the meadow because the wolf would come out from the forest. But what the grandfather said was true because first, the wolf tried to kill the cat but when the duck was going to Peter, the duck was eaten alive by the wolf. Peter was shocked that the duck died. After Peter caught the wolf, the hunters tried to shoot it but misses and the grandfather was thank goodness not dead. When Peter and his grandfather bought the wolf to the village to make it be killed, Peter decided to free the wolf but the grandfather was not happy so the wolf left and that's the end of the film. The story and movie is different but a little similar to the story, there was no narrations, and no speaking, but there is music and sounds. I give this rating a 5/5 because it was based on a story Peter and the Wolf by Prokofiev.

Good Will Hunting


One of the film's theme is Trust. Trust is when people care about someone and are able to share their thoughts on topics. Will didn't build trust when he was younger because he was being picked on by his family. As an adult, he still doesn't have trust with many people. His friends are the only people that he trusts. His friends get into trouble a lot, they come from South Boston which is a bad part of town. In the beginning, his relationship with Sean was annoying for Sean because Will didn't share a lot and was silent all day. Sean share about his wife dying by cancer. Will said Sean married the wrong wife because he thought she was mean to Sean. At the end, of the movie, Will gives Sean a letter that says that Will is going to California to meet Skylar. Skylar is Will's girlfriend. Will said that he doesn't love her because he didn't want to get hurt.

Casablanca


I believe that Rick and Ilsa love each other sometimes because they might have not met for a long time until she came to Casablanca and sees Rick working there. The scene that makes me believe this is about the memories of Rick with Ilsa in Paris because in that past, they were having a good time, they get along, and talk sometime. At the end of the movie, Rick made Victor take Ilsa his true love and goes to the airplane straight to America. He even almost got arrested but not at all so Rick said "This is the beginning of our beautiful friendship. I believe it would be a better movie if Rick and Ilsa got together forever because of their enchanting life when they first saw each other and the time they talked.

Do the Right Thing


"Do the Right Thing" is about if the main character Mookie (Spike Lee) does the right thing when it comes to treating other people the right way/ People who have racism is a bad thing because they feel like that they are different in worst than others. People who are racists feel that they are better than other people. Mookie is a pizza delivery person who gets upset sometimes because he wants more money, he has a family, at the end, he destroys the pizza place. Everybody in real life who see's violence in Spike Lee's movie has to find out if he did the right thing or not. The restaurant owner Sal was not a happy person to the blacks, he hates musics, he wants silent, some customers were bad to him because they don't follow the rules. The pictures that Sal hangs up are white people including John Travolta. Everybody wants Sal to put up pictures of blacks like at the end, Smiley went to his place and put up the picture of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X on Sal's wall. I believe Sal should put up black people on the wall so the blacks won't be angry.
