I believe family is such an important part in this family’s life because they are all that each other has got. They hold close to their family because they have been through so much and they see death all around them, so they see the importance of their family. They also are taught from a very young age to respect their elders in the family because they have seen much more and know much more about all aspects of life. They are viewed as wise and knowledgeable and the young family members cherish the opportunity to learn from them. In the movie Gran Torino one

We are close to the brave new world in personal relationships, especially with the family unit. There is no family unit in the brave new world, you are on your own.

If we don’t start changing our ways then we are not going to have a sense of the family unit.

Firstly, Metzenthen uses the theme of family in the novel through some key events involving a main protagonist, Henry Lyon, and his parents. This theme is evident in the novel when Henry and Janine discuss their trip to France, Janine asks him if his parents accept Janine’s proposal of Henry joining her on their journey to France. “Henry was not prepared to concede that his folks ran his life.” (pg. 245) and “As long as I don’t drop my

Junior gave me his bucket, took my empty one, and returned to the river. When he came home, the first thing he did was ask me if I was hurt from falling. I told him I was fine, but he examined my knees and elbows anyways, and when he was done, he tickled me.” (pg. 39) This shows the theme because Junior, his older brother, didn’t learn any magic, but he wanted to keep Ishmael’s imagination running, and give him something to believe in. When Ishmael fell, It was obvious that Junior cared deeply about his younger brother and wanted to make sure he was okay after falling. Another example of family as a theme is towards the end of the book, when Ishmael is talking about when he was seven. He wrote, “Pa Sesay, one of my friends’ grandfather, had told us many stories that night, but before he began telling the last story, he repeatedly said ‘This is a very important story.’... ‘There was a hunter who went into the bush to kill a monkey. He had looked for only a few minutes when he saw a monkey sitting comfortably in the branch of a low tree. The monkey didn’t pay him any attention, not even when his footsteps on the dried leaves rose and fell as he neared. When he was close enough and behind a tree where he could clearly see the monkey, he raised his rifle and aimed. Just when he was about to pull the trigger, the monkey spoke: ‘If you shoot me, your mother will die, and if you don't, your father will die.’...’What would you do if you

Firstly how does the novel show the theme of family in the novel. An example from the novel is when Ada wants to move to the city to find a job in the city. But she can’t because she has to stay at home and look after her family because her mum has died and her dad is always drunk, so if she leaves things might go badly. Also, family is shown in the novel when Willand Murray don’t talk much anymore because after what happened

Family is expressed in diverse ways. Mama strongly believes in the importance of family throughout the book. She continues to try to keep them together by fulfilling their dreams before hers. Her dream was moving her family out of the ghetto and into a house with a yard where children can play, and she can tend a garden. Her dream has been deferred since she and her husband moved into the apartment that the Youngers still inhabit. Every day, her dream provides her with an incentive to make money. But no matter how much she and her husband strived, they could not scrape together enough money to make their dream a reality. As they go through trying times the eventify they come together as a family because by the end they realized being together was most important. They are still strong individuals but together they prove they are a strong family. Throughout the book the Younger family is constantly arguing about what Mama should do with the ten thousand dollars she inherited from her husband. “I-I just seen my family fall apart today…. Just falling into pieces in front of my eyes we couldn’t have gone on like we were today (Hansberry91)” Mama is trying to tell her family that these arguments about the money are tearing her family apart. She wanted them to know that she did the right thing by buying the house, thinking it would make her family happy again. Mama could have spent the money on herself, but she chose her family first and their needs that is

What is family in your opinion? Family can be a source of support, compassion, optimism, love and happiness, but family can also be a cause of depression, betrayal, hurt and pain. Family is not always determined based on having the same DNA but it is the relationships that people can make or have with one another. Family can consist of several different people like, friends, co-workers, classmates, a community, etc... Some family members can be your worst enemies because they have the most information of secrets to bring a relative down. Being able to trust a person, depend on them, and be carefree is a person that can be valued as being a part of a family. In the movie Little Miss Sunshine, their dysfunctional family is loving, supportive, optimistic and motivating. The movie is filled with humor about a modern middle-class family that is about to encounter a financial catastrophe but in the midst of their struggles they still find the beauty in life and the meaning in life. The beginning of the movie Richard, the father is giving a motivational speech about winning, he states “There are two types of people in this world, winners and losers”.(Little Miss Sunshine) Richard is a protagonist motivational speaker that is obsessed with winning. He is so consumed with achieving that he ridicules his family for not being perfect throughout the film. Richard trying to build up the ideal life or what he thinks is the ‘American Dream’ around himself. He chooses to ignore aspects of the life around him that he sees as unacceptable or out of sync with his ideal lifestyle, trying instead to fulfil his role as the authorative head of the family and provider. Sheryl is the mother who is optimist, she is always giving words of encouragement even when Richard is trying to bring down his family and she is all about being truly honest. Frank is the brother of Sheryl whom at the beginning attempts to commit suicide due to a broken heart and losing his standing as Americas pre-eminent Proust Scholar. Dwayne is the son of Richard and Sheryl and is committed to joining the air force. He also is very committed that he takes a vow of silence until he gets into the air force, but then he finds out he is color blind and breaks his

This theme is revealed when Mr. Nobody died because Emily never got the chance to truly meet him and before he died they were going to get together so that Emily could show him around the area “Mr. Nobody has been hale and hearty two days earlier” (46). I chose this quote because it shows how you may think someone is fine one day but then the next they are gone and that is exactly what happened. The second theme is do not get caught up in being frustrated with your parents because you want to have a good relationship with them since they are the ones that will be there till the end. Sometimes we get really mad and frustrated that we do dumb things that end up harming ourselves “She jabbed her needle hard through the fabric and inadvertently stabbed the fleshy part of her thumb” (128). Emily and her mom had just had a conversation and it ended with Emily becoming very frustrated with her mom so she became rough and ended up hurting herself. This theme is revealed through the conflict man vs man because it is Emily vs her mom. Themes are important in books and these themes are very useful to us now as
