Bessie Movie Review

168 Words1 Page

I focused on Bessie to do my work during the semester. Bessie has a bad temper, but deep down she is a very noble woman who helps her patients. I think in the movie they made her look like a very angry woman. Something that seemed very emotional to me and I was about to cry was when Bessie has to tell to the Dr. that her dream was to be a Doctor and she did not think about having children or getting married. That scene was sad, although she says she is happy just to have her sister, maybe I think that if she has children she would be happy as well. They both gave up having a family and took care of each other. The love they have as sisters is impressive. Since they were little they experienced racism very closely but that did not stop them

  • Who Is Nat Turner Inhumane

    1018 Words  | 5 Pages

    It's important to not only show the plantations of hundreds of slaves forced to work against their will but also the inhumane treatment, and the mental and physical abuse they endured. The film accomplished its overall goal of opening the viewer treatment slaves faced. From when Esther was raped by a white man, to when Nat found that Cherry had been attacked and assaulted by a group of men. The film did an amazing job portraying emotions through the character's facial expressions, as well as the music and color choices in specific scenes. The humiliation and shame Esther felt were heartbreaking to watch and the music and dark colors in the scene made the time even sadder and more impactful.

    One thing that I saw was the colossal huge dining experience that happened just before the four men came to 124 to recover Sethe and her kids. Truth be told, whole partitions of Stamp Paid and Baby Sugg's stories are excluded in the motion picture. The motion picture is fixated on Sethe, Beloved, and infrequently Paul D and Denver. Something else that is overlooked in the motion picture is the stories of the Sweet Home men. The motion picture likewise overlooks all the symbolism and particular points of interest that Toni Morrison included.

    For example, sanitation workers had to carry bags of garbage that had holes in them and since they were paid low wages, they ended up poor on welfare. Not only was this film was a way of seeing another turning point during the civil rights movement but also, African Americans fighting for justice. Even though I was not born during that time, I can understand how they felt because it wasn’t that easy. In today’s society racism isn’t as bad as what it was during that time. Besides we still have times were we face racism in our lives so I would say in some areas racism is still a

    It baffles me to see how these men, women, and children were treated as animals. I ask the question, how could these owner treat the slaves like this and not have any regrets or fears as to what would happen to them when they die. It also made me think on the slaves who were not born slaves that came from Africa who did know the language, customs, and how they were up rooted from their lives. I always thought that slaves were separated from their families because one of the family members did wrong. This film taught me that that was not always the reason some slave owners sold members of the slave families just because they could.

    It showed that gender should not be an obstacle when it comes to reaching your dreams. Your gender or race can not stop you from accomplish your goals, and with determination anything is possible. This movie gave an overall accurate depiction of society and how it socialized to us to accept norms that we may not agree with but are socially acceptable to other around us. By having a female character who overcomes difficulties, it teaches young children to challenge the norms of society and question the labels other place on them or others.
