3 Idiots is a story of true friendship, leadership and fulfilment of dreams. This is one of the best movies I have seen. I gained a lot of lessons in this masterpiece. This is a quite long movie yet worthwhile.
Rancho, one of the main characters in the movie, is undeniably a great person, a great friend, a great leader and a great student. Though he did nasty things, he still done it for a good purpose. He never thought of his own sake. He was never selfish. He possesses a lot of qualities of an effective leader. Because of his

    To know that he was capable of moving and getting through all the setbacks that arise makes me feel like I’m capable of enduring any challenges in life. For him to constantly get rejected even by his family shows how strong of an individual he is. It seem like he went through everything that you could go through to create a successful movement from the strikes to the grape boycott to the fast that he endured for 25 days. For someone with the health that he already have last 25 days without food really shows what someone is capable of doing when there mind is set on the goal. The film overall taught me a lot about the Mexican culture and the things that they went through throughout their history in California. I now have a different perspective on farm workers and what it takes to be able survive such horrific circumstances. The presentation made me feel as if I don’t know as much as I should know about history for every race and class throughout our history. This occurred not that long ago and is still an issue in the United States today. We see numerous people working for starvation wages that cannot improve the circumstance that their almost stuck in. It inspired make a change within the area that live and make sure everyone has their rights to the basic necessities of life. It also offended me that we as a nation could treat a group…

    The whole movie deals with emotions and how they grow up in that environment and that reflects in next generation’s life. Their perceptions are a lot different from my culture. One thing that I felt from this movie is whatever you see from parents or elder siblings, most of the time you will follow that way and it’s also happen in my culture also. Twenty years ago at about the same time that "Cisco" and "Stingray" Santiago became leaders of the notorious Assassination gang and Luis also became a gang leader. That movie is also a great example of emotional intelligence. This movie is kind of empathetic.…

    This movie’s level of ambition was that of a typical Clint Eastwood film, straightforward, deep and controversial. Clint Eastwood is known through his characters as the hard, smart talking, no nonsense, afraid of nothing type casted actor and so his films that are directed by him bring a whole new level to that type of character. He brings the softer side to these characters that we do not expect to see. He reveals the inner dilemma within his character to show that just because someone has done some really horrible things in their lives that does not mean that they do not have internal struggles between what is right and what is wrong.…

    The topic that is going to be presented today is the theme of U. I. D. with reference to Ravan and Eddie and ironically relating it to a secular country like India. The book Ravan and Eddie will appear to be one of the funniest novels when one first reads it. However, the greater number of times one reads the book, the better he/she will understood what it is actually trying to convey to the reader, according to which no unity in diversity exists among Indians. Although this story is set right after India got independence, this book seems to be about life in our decade. One cannot help but compare the similarities of people’s behavior at that time and in the present. Although Ravan and Eddie appears to be a childish and playful novel, it actually forces us to deal with imperative questions that each one of us see in our day to day lives, but we ignore them inspite of knowing their significance. Surprisingly, these questions are posed to us by children, much younger than ourselves, yet who seem to have a vast knowledge and perception of society. Despite them not being highly educated, they are extremely intelligent but naïve which forces us to like them.…
