What is the difference between the movie and the book? Is there a  situation in your life that can relate to this? The difference between the book and the movie is the book went into greater detail about netties time in africa, and her work to help the people there. Also the relationship between celie and shug is made greater. Mr. ____ in the book knows about and informes celie of the letter about the ship goin down, but in the movie he goes to the immigration office to make sure that nettie comes home.

In my life a stituation that i can relate to this is that my sister has moved out to california. Before she ever moved out we were pretty close the last couple years before she moved. We always went to concerts and other places together. So I can understand how celie could miss her sister who is so far away. Even though i can talk to my sister anytime that i want to, instead of having to send a letter.

Final Project

For my final project i want to take my favorite movie the boondock saints and take each character and tell what their archetype is and why. To do this i would create a powerpoint that would have short video clips displaying each archetype.

Master of two worlds is once the hero crosses the threshold, he comes to realize that there really is nothing separating his home from the new world. For me and my experience with this would have to be the time when i moved from maryland to gettysburg at the age of 11. Before i moved i thought it would have been a really hard adjustment going to a totally different school and meeting all new people. But really all the kids were pretty much the same as my friends down there. And most of the friends that i made whenever i first came to PA are still my really good friends now.

The song that i think can relate to this is the song to the threshold by hatebreed, its a song about getting pushed to the edge and overcoming your fears and you will realize that once you cross the threshold it usually ends up being better than it was on the other side of it. It actually one of my favorite songs and whenever they perform that song live Jamie Jasta uses alot of emotion cause the song comes from personal experinces that he had in his life, like most hatebreed songs do.
