Day 3

Day 3
In the end of the film, the narrator makes a point about the act of telling stories and what it does. The point that the son makes about his father is that ,"When you tell stories allot you become the story." Yes, i do agree with this because when tell a story about your so much that you can imagine that your really their in the story and stuff. I think i have seen this to be true with the telling of stories because many people tell stories. For example, the lockness monster in Ireland seems to be true in some ways because many people have pictures of parts of the lockness monster. Also another story that might be true is some ghost stories that people be showing on TV. That was my post about the end of the film and makes a point about the act of telling stories and what it does.

Day 2

Day 2
My favorite scene in the film is when Edward meets the love of his life. When he met her time stopped but for him time went really fast and he couldn't even go and see her. So he wanted to get know her but he the only way to get to know her is to work for Danny devito, who is the circus leader. The filmmaker represent the feelings of a moment like this by making Edward go through everything in a slow but smooth way. These choices are effective because it shows how when somebody falls in love with someone and it shows what happens when they fall in love.
A good scene from the movie is when Edward goes to war and his wife is sad. This scene is important because Edward promised that he will come home. It stick out to me because it shows how much he loves his fiance and wants to come home to her. It also shows how brave he is when hes down in china fighting all those soldiers. When he tries to get back home he asked the combined lady twins if he could help him return home to his fiance and in return to help them get a job at the circus. That was an important site that stuck out to me in the movie.

Day 1

Day 1
The summary for the movie so far is that Edward likes to tell people lots of story's. He also saw how he was going to die from looking into an eye of the old lady, when he was a little kid. All of his friends in the video showed how they died except Edward. Then he goes into town that is to perfect and relaxing called Spectre. So he decides to stay there for a little while then he leaves because he wanted to something else to then that.
Then when he goes to the giant and goes to the circus, he finds his love of his life. They say when you meet your true love that time slows down but in his vision time went so fast that he couldn't even talk to his love of his life. So he had to work at the circus and each month Danny deviate will tell him something about this girl. Until one day he went to ask her to marry her but she was engage to the man that he was better at everything. Till he died of a heart attack on his toilet, which made Jenny marry Edward. Also Edward made a promise to return from the war that he was drafted to.
