My Life in Movies

  • Mulan-Quote

    Mulan-Quote
    The quote, "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all" said by the Emperor of China in Mulan is important to me because it is basically saying to be yourself and to be different. I like this quote because it is saying that growing up in a difficult climate and developing as a person in the world can be tough.
  • The Lion King-Quote

    The Lion King-Quote
    the phrase, “Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it," that was said by Rafiki speaks to me because it taught me to not hold grudges and to learn from my mistakes. I like this quote because it is important for us as people to learn and deal with problems instead of running from the things that we don't like in our lives.
  • Star Wars: A New Hope-Character

    Star Wars: A New Hope-Character
    Princess Leia has always been one of my favorite characters from Star Wars because she was strong and independent. She reminds me of my mom because she works for herself and is very independent. she influences me to be just as self-sufficient.

    This movie is important to me because it reminds me of my journey throughout playing softball. It makes me think of back when I was really young and played t-ball. The title, The Perfect Game is relevant because to me softball is the perfect and most fun game.
  • The Karate Kid-Scene

    The Karate Kid-Scene
    The scene from this movie that relates to me is in the beginning when Dre and his mother are moving from Detroit to China because I use to move from house to house when I was younger. Though we stayed in Newmarket, the vibe and the neighborhoods always felt completely different.
  • Home Alone-Setting

    Home Alone-Setting
    the setting of Home Alone reminds me of when I was a little younger and I would be home alone and pretend to be in this movie. The setting is in Kevin's house while his family is off on vacation.

    The movie title My Girl relates to me because it makes me think of one of the most important people in my life. She has become so important to me I could call her "my girl". This is why this movie title speaks to me
  • Brave-Character

    Brave-Character
    Merida from Brave represents me in a way because she is all about doing her own thing and carving her own path which I like. Her whole mindset is kind of like mine with wanting to be me and wanting people to not try to change me.
  • Pitch Perfect-Title

    Pitch Perfect-Title
    Pitch Perfect is relevant to me because when I started watching it, I realized how much I loved to sing. This is an important aspect of my life because I sing all the time and love listening to music. I love music and listen to it every second of the day.

    Olaf in the movie Frozen says, "Some people are worth melting for" and this speaks to me because it makes me think of all the important relationships in my life. It makes me think of all my friends and family that are important to me and the people I'd do anything for.
  • Alien-Character

    Alien-Character
    Ellen Ripley from Alien kind of reminds me of myself because she doesn't really care about what other people think of her. Ellen doesn't wear makeup and doesn't really dress as the average or "normal" girl would.
  • Spiderman 2-Setting

    Spiderman 2-Setting
    The setting of Spiderman 2 is very recognizable because it was filmed in New York. I have been to New York once and I really liked it and this movie gives me nostalgia for that time. Spiderman is seen swinging around and you can see all the tall buildings of the city
  • The Heat-Setting

    The Heat-Setting
    This movie's setting gives me deja vu because it was shot in Boston where I've been many times. One of the first scenes in this movie is of the bridge you have to cross to get into Boston from where we are.
  • Moana-Scene

    Moana-Scene
    The scene from Moana that relates to me is when she gets on the boat and leave the island to go explore. I can relate to this because when I started high school I decided to branch out like she did and discover new people and new hobbies.
  • A Dogs Purpose- Scenes

    A Dogs Purpose- Scenes
    The scene where the dog was at the vet and was being put down because of his old age reminded me of when I was younger and my grandparent's cat had to be put down. This made me sad, but it left a message that maybe animals will live on in another life.
