137 Words1 Page

Perks of Being A Wallflower is a unique film. It keeps you listening for new sounds and what wacky things might be coming out of the people’s mouths. It is not only the sound that keeps the attention on the movie, but also the sight. Seeing what is going along to the different styles and genres of musical scores is essential in receiving the full effect the film can deliver. Being able to sense that the film is expressing anger or heartache through the scores and the body language of the characters in such a disciplined manner is appealing. Not anger has to have the loud abrasive music, it can be expressed in silence but with the character being hardheaded and stiff. Same thing with sadness it cane silent with someone sitting in a corner holding

    “My skin color was an asset for any move I was educated to want to make”(Mcintosh 1). A quote from Peggy McIntosh’s essay shows how the way we are treated in our societies has a direct impact on the way we perform in that society. The essay caused me to think deeply about myself and how I truly am privileged to be white; although we may not notice it there are millions of privileges linked to our skin colour. Upon finishing the reading I was questioning not only white privilege but also things like racism and what I myself could do to help people of other ethnicity’s not feel underprivileged. To begin, Peggy McIntosh mentions in her essay the fact that men have privilege over women causing women disadvantages in the same way whites have power

The use of his patois that is now commonly used amongst the vast majority of teens around the world is one worth explaining. To start, vulgar language is essentially looked down upon because of how profane and “unnecessary” it is. The use of this language in everyday life, not only within this novel, is one that is used to convey emotion, as it is much easier to swear and curse than it is to convey your emotions with “proper” language.
