Movie: "Raisin in the Sun"

In the movie, "Raisin in the Sun", I really thought that the actors that played the role, did a really good job in fitting the charcters in the play. I think it suited the play nicely in the movie. I think the actor best suited for the play was probably Mama.I thought she did a good job especially because she had to act out a lot of scenes where shes under stress and depressed with the sitiuations going on in that little apartment. My favorite part of the play was probably the part where they get the house in clybourne park. That was my favorite part because for once in the that scene everybody was happy.

The location of the play was how exactly I thought it would look like because it fit the play and everything perfect. I really did enjoy watching this movie because it made a better image in my head and made me understand the play a lot better then before. The other scene from the movie that I enjoyed was the part that was most dramatic which was when Bobo told Walter that the money was stolen. That was also my favorite dramatic part of the movie. I really did enjoy the movie because it helped me understand it a lot more because of how it was set up.

The things I would do with 100,000



I think with 100,000 dollars I would try to help out as much of my family as I possibly can. I would try and pay some of their bills and maybe buy them a few gifts. I would like to do this because I feel like if i help others then I would be helping myself because I would feel good about it. With this kind of money I would also like to buy myself a really nice car, so that I can get to places faster with no hesitation. This money is a lot, but the most I would do with it, is help my parents out. I wouldn't really spend much on me because I wouldn't want as much. The thing that I would really like to get with this kind of money would be a shopping spree because I just really love clothes and I love to shop.Sometimes I would use the money for little things, but my main focus would try to be on family.

I don't necessarily think money can buy someone happiness because people usually feel bored and lonely with all the money they have. If you have many friends and family with you then you would feel better about yourself because you know you have family and friends to count on. I honestly think that when you have a lot of money like this, then people should use it to help one another, not just themselves. Then afterwards you would feel good about yourself because you know you did a good thing. But if I had 100,000 dollars, then I would just use it mainly for family.

Raisin in the Sun

I think Raisin in the Sun is an interesting play because it deals with the fact that the family is dealing through a lot of things. With money, family, and even relationships. I think this play so far is really good and it is very interesting to read. When I read this play I feel like I can really picture myself in their situations. This play is really interesting because the fact that they go through real-life situations, and it can be related to real-life problems.

I think the character that I can relate to the most would be Mama, because shes the one who is going through all these problems that are going on in the house. I feel like she goes through a lot of stress  because of her family. I think that Mama and I can relate because every time there is a problem at my house I'm the one to always deal with the stress and deal with everything that's going on. I feel like Mama tries really hard to be a good mother by listening to her kids, but at the same time she feels like she is doing a bad job. I can relate to that because I feel that I am a bad sister at times, towards my little sister and brother.
