Examples Of Dory In Finding Nemo
"Just Keep Swimming" is the motto that Dory from "Finding Nemo", tells herself when times get tough. Dory is a character who has lived through hardship and has become stronger.
In the film "Finding Nemo, Dory has this condition, which is more commonly known as short-term memory loss. Dory forgets conversations within minutes of having them, she never quite forgets who she is, and can, therefore explain her bizarre behavior to those around her. She has difficulty remembering specific navigation instructions, much less knowing what she is doing. The repetition, for example, when the Moonfish, tell Dory to swim through the trench, not over it, but Marlin denies the Moonfish' s advice and convinces Dory to swim over it when they arrive there.

    '...but if Walter and I had put ourselves in her shoes, we'd have seen it was an honest mistake on her part. We could not expect her to learn all Maycomb's ways in one day, and we could not hold her responsible when she knew no better. (pg. 33) This proves that this piece of advice from her father is very useful, and she used it again the next time there was a misunderstanding,…

    She doesn’t know that the Cunningham’s don’t take anything they couldn’t pay back so it seemed as though she got offended when Walter didn’t take the quarter. Everyone in the class knows what the Cunningham’s are like so when this happens, the class reacted surprised. Mrs. Fisher did not show an act of false judgement which shows that things change in Maycomb. Over time, people begin to look at different situations a bias way due to the perspectives of others. She also doesn’t like the fact that Scout can read. It seems as though she was discouraged by a child’s knowledge and didn’t know how to react towards it. “Jem and I hated her. If she was on the porch when we passed, we would be raked by her wrathful gaze, subjected to ruthless interrogation regarding our behavior, and given a melancholy prediction on what we would amount to when we grew up, which was always nothing.” (Lee, 13). This quote shows the false judgement on Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose on the children. Most of the adults in Maycomb do not fully respect Jem and Scout. This is because of their age; something they cannot control. People treat them differently based on this because nobody stands up for them except themselves. The adults have no reason to follow along in someone else’s footsteps in this aspect because no one is making the footsteps for anyone to follow in. "Stephanie Crawford even told me once she woke up in the middle of the night and found him…

    The motion picture we are applying or using is Pixar's "Finding Nemo". Our hero would be Marlin, the timid clownfish who lives safe and secluded in the colorful and warm tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef. After the devastating, life changing event when starting a family, specifically when a hostile fish devoured his wife and all his unborn kids, Marlin had been a cowardly, cautious individual who lacks socialism and simply "can't tell a joke". He limits, rescues, protects and controls Nemo, and expectations are low for Nemo's ability, due to his disability. He is somber, worried and agitated about every detail in Nemo's life. In fact, Marlin's life completely revolves around Nemo's life. Also, Marlin can't acknowledge or admit that he has any problems. Following Joseph Campbell's steps, Marlin eventually becomes an epic hero by following the epic hero journey and relinquishes his flaws. "Finding Nemo" would be a fitting selection of a fictional depiction of the Hero's Journey.…

    This can be used as a criticism of the multi-store model of memory because the MSM implies that the only way that you will remember something is through rehearsal but (as this case study proves) you are also able to remember things if they are interesting, funny or distinctive, therefore making them “stick in the mind”.…
