A CHARACTER OR SCENE THAT APPEARED DIFFERENTLY IN THE MOVIE

 PROMPT RESPONSE

One character who  appeared differently in the movie than I imagined while reading fences was Troy. When I was reading the play, I imagined Troy as very serious and strict person, but seeing him in the movie made his personality feel stronger and more realistic. His facial expressions, tone of voice, and body language made it easier to understand how confident and stubborn he could be. I also noticed how his interactions with Cory and Rose showed emotions that were harder to picture while reading. The movie helped me see Troy as more than just a strict father because I could actually see the emotions behind his words and actions.


SUMMARY

The movie changed the way I understood Troy because I could see and hear his personality instead of only imagining it from the words in the book. His serious attitude, strong, personality, and complicated relationships with his family became more noticeable. Some scenes felt more intense in the movie because the actor's voices, expressions, and movements showed emotions that I had imagined differently while reading.


REFLECTION

Watching the movie helped me understand Troy's character on a deeper level. While reading, I created my own picture of what Troy looked and acted like, but the movie gave me a different version of him. I realized that the way an actor delivers a line can completely change how I understand a character's feelings. The movie also made me pay more attention to Troy's relationship with Rose and Cory because I could see their reactions during their conversations. Overall, the movie did not completely change my understanding of Troy, but it made his personality and emotions much easier for me to visualize and understand.

TROY'S COMPLAINT ABOUT THE UNFAIR JOB SYSTEM

 PROMPT RESPONSE Troy's conversation made me think about how important fairness and equal opportunities are in society. In Fences, Troy explains how racial discrimination affected his opportunities at work and made it harder for him to move forward. If I were in Troy's position, I would try to speak up about the unfair treatment and explain why I believe everyone should have an equal opportunity to succeed. I would also try to stay focused on improving my situation instead of allowing unfair treatment to stop me from working toward my goals. SUMMARY Troy's experience shows how discrimination can create barriers for people who are trying to build better lives for themselves and their families. His frustration comes from feeling that people were being treated differently because of their race rather than being judged fairly based on their abilities. The conversation shows that having an opportunity is important because people should be able to work hard and have a fair chance...

SOMETHING THAT INFLUENCED MY DECISION AND HOW I CHANGED MY MIND

 PROMPT RESPONSE  Yes, I have had to choose between something I wanted and something I needed to do. For example, sometimes I want to relax or spend time on my phone, but I need to finish my schoolwork first. I choose to do my schoolwork because my responsibilities are important. SUMMARY Sometimes we have to put our responsibilities before the things we want. Making the right choice can mean giving up something fun for something more important. REFLECTION I think choosing what I need over what I want can be difficult, but it usually helps me in the long run. I was satisfied with my choice because finishing my responsibilities made me feel less stressed and allowed me to enjoy my free time afterward.

HOW PARENTS SHOULD REACT TOWARDS OR LOOK AFTER THEIR CHILDREN

 PROMPT I think parents should both love and like their children. Loving someone means caring about them and wanting what is best for them, while liking someone means enjoying their personality and wanting to spend time with them. I agree with Troy that parents should provide and take care of their children, but I also think children need emotional support and affection. SUMMARY Troy shows his love by providing for Cory, but he does not always show affection or understanding. Parents should provide for their children while also making them feel loved and supported. REFLECTION I believe children need more than food, clothes, and a home. They also need encouragement, attention, and someone they can talk to. A parent does not have to agree with everything their child does, but showing love and support can help build a stronger relationship.
