Bridegroom Film Analysis
Cultural Movie-Bridegroom In the movie, Bridegroom, there were many cultural differences aroused throughout the entire movie. Shane Bitney Crone struggled at a young age with anxiety from the fact of the acceptance that he was gay. He was afraid that no one would accept him for being this way, and everyone would look down upon him. His mother was his biggest supporter; she was there to pick him up when the kids at school shamed him for being attracted to guys. Also, his sisters and father played a huge role in his support team. Throughout the years until he graduated high school, he struggled with finding the acceptance of who he was, and where he belonged in this world. Little did he know that in another state a boy was struggling as well, …show more content…

They went to many places together, the love they showed for one another was remarkable. Shane and Tom always had a smile upon their face. While in public they did not publicize their relationship, they used a code for I Love You (“Tap” “Tap” “Tap”). Many people saw them as the ideal relationship because they were always laughing and having a good …show more content…
Neither Shane’s or Tom’s family were not familiar with the life style of same-sex relationships. Shane’s family valued family, happiness, and acceptance. However Tom’s family valued family, masculinity, and religion. They had little to no acceptance with same-sex relationships. This situation between both families was a roller coaster because all Shane wanted Tom’s family to accept him into their family. He had a fantasy that they would wake up one Christmas at Tom’s parents house, and he would say a funny joke that would make his family laugh. Many people in their communities did not accept the way they were. These people would make fun of them, and call them horrible names. The only thing they wanted in life is to show people that they are human too, and they deserve the right to love

    The 2011 movie “Bridesmaids” acted as a catalyst for female-driven movies and TV shows. This movie was a first for the film industry; a successful R-rated comedy with female-centric themes, and people loved it.

    The short story “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky,” written by Stephen Crane reflects on issues surrounding the eighteen centuries in the east and west of Texas. Crane reveals historical pieces by describing the area and surrounding of the east, which seems undeveloped and not so modernizes. During the eighteen centuries there were conflicts between the east and west resulting in different cultural and social matters because of Jack’s hesitation about bringing his new bride to Yellow Sky. There is also a reference to the Saloon, a term used back then for a bar. The author emphasized on the normal occurrences of gun fighting because during those days everyone had guns. The main focus is on the historical issues based on the abundant land, cultural matters and by the use of the word “Saloon” which refers to long ago.…

These definitions put together therefore means to care everlastingly, to show affection, desire, or approve of, forever. Transformation is defined as an action of the noun transform, and means to change the shape or form of. This definition points out that something has been changed, their lives have been “transformed” into something else. Tragic is defined as calamitous, disastrous, fatal, or pertaining to tragedy which is defined as having an unhappy event, or disastrous with an unhappy ending.

    Andre's Mother

    • 1104 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The fact that McNally chose to address Andre and Cal’s relationship was a questionable and unpopular thought at first. Especially since he went into such major detail with it, having Cal speak to Andre’s mother about how important Andre was to him. Since this play was intended for a big audience, it confirms that McNally was trying to spread his perspective on homosexuality. Him being gay, gives him emotional ties to the subject matter that he intends and wishes to extend to the general population of people. Although the play deals with AIDS, a commonly associated disease with gay people, the main theme of the play has nothing to do with AIDS. In fact it has everything to do with the acceptance of a person and the happiness that comes with realizing that the person is not afraid of being who he/she is. Andre’s mother was never give a name throughout the play. McNally purposefully did so to emphasize her feelings toward the death of her son. Andre never told his mother about Cal out of fear that he would not be accepted by her. The end of the play shows that Andre’s mother comes to a realization that being gay doesn’t change anything about a person. This helps McNally’s point that a gay person is still a person, and more importantly, a vulnerable person who doesn’t deserve what they have to go through because they cannot change who they…

    Bridesmaids Movie Review

    • 636 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Bridesmaids is a terrifically funny, smart, and emotional ensemble comedy. Some may say it’s the female version of The Hangover, while others may think it’s quite similar to Bride Wars. This movie pulls off the amazingly uncanny trick of being both brutal and gentle at the same time. I highly recommend this movie to all audiences over the age of 17. The unexpected truth of being a bridesmaid is revealed, but in the end, Kristen Wigg (Annie) persuades you that there is a greater light at the end of the tunnel. Despite the chaos, lifelong friendships end up being what truly matters.…
