The police reassured her that everything is fine which makes her totally isolated from any kind of help. Krueger gets to his victims through their dream which is the even scarier part for these teens. There are role reversals throughout the movie as well such as Nancy’s relationship with her mother.

)” Comparing the film to the story itself they are very much identical to one another with a few alterations from the story itself. The mother’s character being one as she is portrayed in the story as being rather jealous of her daughter’s beauty in a way sees much of herself in Connie, which caused her to envy her daughter for carrying on her once young and beautiful genes, and in return she chose to favor Connie’s rather odd and out of place sister June instead; we tend to see less of her character in the film acting towards Connie with that attitude. Another difference from the film is the concluding scene, which we witness Arnold actually return Connie after he has gotten what he came to steal from her, and after the way her mother greets her at, hugging and apologizing for the fight they got in to previously that Sunday morning which we know would never have happened in the stories character of the mother. A last thing that Oates’ quotes about in her last paragraph in the essay response on the film which I didn’t even
Their mother considered them to be one person because they were so much alike and called them “HannahAnna.” Hannah and Anna start to realize they are not one person, but two separate people. With all the noises and strange occurrences you start to try and figure out is someone or something trying to separate them and why. While reading The Girl Behind the Glass by Jane Kelley, readers get involved with trying to figure out who is this ghost and why is this happening.

Even though her mother was categorized with limited ideas by the people she would to because of the way she spoke tan rejects the idea that her mother English is “limited” or “broken”. She emphasizes the fact that even her mother recognizes that her opportunities and interactions in life are limited by her English.

Mother Tongue In “Mother Tongue”, Amy Tan writes about discrimination through “broken English” compared to Standard English and how people who speak “broken English” are usually taken advantage of. In Tans essay she quotes her mother’s speech to demonstrate her mother’s “broken English”. The quoted parts were filled with grammatical mistakes and the text was quite confusing. Yet, according to Tan “You should know that my mother’s expressive command of English belittles how much she actually understands”. This reminds me of my childhood, because growing up I would have to constantly translate for my mother.
