Billy Elliot
Conflict and Relationship in Billy Elliot
A significant conflict and relationship in the film Billy Elliot directed by Stephen Daldry is between Billy and his father Jacky. Billy is an 11-year-old boy who lives in Ireland with his father, brother and Grandmother in a little apartment. Billy and his father’s relationship is stable until the shock of his son doing ballet instead of boxing. They both have different views for the future and this causes conflict on their relationship.
An important point in the film Billy Elliot is the strike happening for the work force of the mining company. Billy’s father and brother work for the mining company but are on strike demanding for a pay rise. For example when they go out on strike Billy’s brother is striking when he sees his father inside the bus heading to work, the father is working instead of striking to pay for Billy’s ballet audition in London. My opinion is that I would work to earn money to pay for things for the family and to help pay for my sons dreams. In the end they get a pay rise and they all go back to work in the mine.
An important point in the film Billy Elliot is Billy wanting to be a ballet dancer instead of a boxer. Billy has been taking boxing because of his father and he was useless at it. Ballet dancers had taken over the other end of the hall and Billy took interest in it. He then joined in and loved it. For example he was made to stay behind for more boxing training by himself and he was encouraged to join in with them and he danced in his boxing gear until the teacher gave him ballet shoes. My opinion is that its good that Billy is following his dreams and not letting other people take over it.
An important point in the film Billy Elliot is about for filling his dreams to become a professional ballet dancer. Billy had auditioned in London for the royal ballet school. He was accepted in the school and this was the start of his career as a professional ballet dancer.
