The long walk home

The long walk home was the most sad movie that I have seen in this Aspect of American Culture class because when I watched it, I felt unhappy to see that the fair did not happened in this movie because of she was a black people and I also felt pity to them very much.

The obvious scence shown the unfairness in black people was the scence about blacks boycotted public transport becuase they were forced to sit at the back. Odessa works as a maid for the Thompsons, and as well as she is treated, she feels it is her duty to walk to work, even if it means she is exhaused, and gets to work late. So, it can show that black people did not get fair from white American by acting with black person like that because I think that human should be get the same right to being alive in this world and at that time should have the rule for protecting the balck people.

Meet me at St. Louis

This movie told me in many things that I did not know before and something different from this present time. First of all, it was about the telephone it means that the charactristic of telephone look different and I think it might be difficult to use it but in the movie shown me as very easy to use it. When they used, they would be use the loud and louder sound so everyone in the house would be hear everything they said.

Next, it was about the dinner, everyone in the home had to wear full uniform to have a dinner although it happened in the home o I think that it's ver surprise to see that on the movie. Moreover, I have just known about the Halloween time in that period that it look like My Sonk-Garn Festival in Thailand because children would put the powder into the other face so it's not scaryas same as the Halloween in this time.

Another thing that I have found in the movie was the Christmas time that it was the day of family for real since this period until now. Everyone in the family will help with each other to create the snow man and spend time to stay together within the house so it would full of happiness and warmess. I think it is the best describe to American culture in the movie.

Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius

When I watched this movie, I found that Jones can be the best character to tell to the audience about the patient. It means he never give up with himself to reach their goal or destination although he had to face to face with the healthy problem or sometimes he got the pressure from other competitor in the golf tournament.

Moreover, the other main thing that can bring him to the big sucessful was his girlfriend because she always gave a huge encorage to him at any time he had the tournament. However, the movie did not show only the golf scence but shown the romantic scence as well, it means Jones gave a softly kiss to his girlfriend under the umbella during the rain. So, this scence I was very impressive and I could feel depth about that feeling very well.

Othe things, I suggest to all of my friends that if you have the problem and you think that you can not pass them for sure, I would like you to watch this movie because I believe that the movie will help you become better stregth on yourself and inspire you to fight with the problem.

BLUES SONG

I love to listen the Blues song because when I listened to, I can follow the feeling inside the song.

Blues style means a song or instrumental piece of music in the style of a type of popular music that developed from African-American folk songs in the early 20th century, consisting mainly of slow sad songs often performed over a repeating harmonic pattern.

Its origins are based in Africa, and it arrived on American shores during the slave trade. The song structure is simple--much of classic blues is based around a three-chord, 12-bar progression.

Blues style remains a music that reflects hardship, trouble, and strife, but also perseverance and strength of character--to know the blues is to be in touch with your true spirit and soul.

Artists: Robert Johnson, Skip James, Muddy Waters, B.B. King
