Doughboy and Ricky mother is very tough and high-spirited. She favours Ricky over Doughboy and makes Doughboy feel like he is not good enough to be in the family. The absence of not having a father is noticeable throughout the movie. I will discuss how these two families both children having single parents and the factors that contributed to the outcome of the two families. For these two families life in the hood is a miserable situation that seems hopeless (e.g.
If gays are allowed to join the military, they will be rooming with other men whom most likely are not gay. Those men do not want a gay man sharing a bunk bed, shower, and toilet with them. I can only imagine the kind of cruel and hurtful things the gays would have to go through, and be tormented by their fellow “brothers”. Although, being in America gives everyone the rights to be equal, when it comes to the military your rights as a person change. Yes, it is their right to join, and yes, it is their right to be gay, but is it right to make the other thousands of men and women in the United States Military feel uncomfortable in their own surrounding where they are bound to
Likely a result of these early experiences, Willy develops a fear of abandonment, which makes him want his family to conform to the American Dream. His efforts to raise perfect sons, however, reflect his inability to understand reality. The young Biff, whom Willy considers the embodiment of promise, drops Willy and Willy’s zealous ambitions for him when he finds out about Willy’s adultery. Biff’s ongoing inability to succeed in business furthers his estrangement from Willy. When, at Frank’s Chop House, Willy finally believes that Biff is on the cusp of greatness, Biff shatters Willy’s illusions and, along with Happy, abandons the
However the wife leaves, confining the husband to his home alone. In this poem the husband takes on a stereotypical role in the marriage by being the stronger person of the relationship. He strives for control of the situation and pretends to not care much that he just buried his son. He hides his emotions and changes the subject to the rot he found on the fence. At first he wonders why his wife is crying and becomes angry with him, but once she explodes at him, confessing all her feelings, and threatens to leave him, he states that, “There, you have said it all and you feel better.
He is disliked by his children especially the oldest son because he is hypocritical by doing the things he scolds them not to. The mother of the family (played by Jessica Chastain) is loved and adored by her sons. She teaches them to live freely and to enjoy the world around them. The parent’s contrasting views confuse the oldest son and make him resentful of the situation he is currently living in. The film is not so cut and dry as the previous plot summary makes it sees.
Death of a Salesman Death of a Salesman begins with an elder Willy Lowman returning from a failed business trip. His comforting wife, Linda, explains to Willy that he should not need to travel anymore, and expresses to him that she would like to see him work locally. From the start of the play, it is evident that Willy’s mental health is deteriorating, as he had an accident previous to the play and he complained about his state of mind. It is also made clear through several flashback hallucinations that Willy experiences. He and Linda discuss their sons, whom Willy is quite disappointed in, especially Biff.
This book/movie is centered around the conflict of Gogol’s American culture and his Indian heritage. There are big misunderstandings between Gogol and his parents and their cultural differences make communication between them very difficult. The result is that Gogol, the main character, never finds ways to effectively be intimate with family and loved ones, because he is not comfortable or practiced in understanding and therefore communicating his own identity. Gogol grows up American and strongly identifies with his Americaness. As he grows up, he distances himself further and further away from his Bengali family.
The American heroic tradition is as out of place in contemporary society as Mitty's visions of himself in action are unrealistic. His only recourse, therefore, given his inability to cope with a complex world, is to turn increasingly inward” (Lindner, 1974). The Secret Life of Walter Mitty captured my interest because I was curious to know what kind of life Walter Mitty lived. Mr. Mitty resides with his obnoxious wife in Waterbury, Connecticut. The genre of this story is a comedy about a man who spends much of his time running errands for his wife and daydreaming about issues in his life among dealing with his nagging wife and others that he come in contact with everyday.
The ‘disease’ causes him great embarrassment and discomfort when he is around people and his Mother’s attitude towards it doesn’t help him. Her voice repeatedly interrupts the narrative of the story. While on holiday with his friend Michael and his family, Neil feels like he has to hide his condition. Instead of having fun, Neil finds refuge with homeowner Mrs Wan (a former duchess) who encourages him to feel better about himself and he finally gains enough confidence to go with Michael and do the things that normal boys of his age do. In the opening paragraph of the story, the author makes it clear how much Neil depends on his mother.
