Marcel Anthony
Marcel Anthony, a French student, decided to take a pilgrimage to the United States. Whenever Marcel got onto the plane to head to America, the density was so strong, it almost made him sick. There were so many people on that plane, and Marcel was all by himself. When he got off the lengthy flight, a dirigible flight attendant directed him to where he needed to go. Marcel then took a drive from the St. Louis airport to Jefferson City, Missouri. All his life, he wanted to go to a catholic school in the United States. His home that he was staying at contained an isthmus in the back yard. A small piece of land connected a large body of land from their lake. He loved to look at it. His family told him he was going to start school in one week at Helias Catholic High School. …show more content…
He walked into school, and was looking for an amphitheater, but he did not see one. That really confused him, but people told him that they have a gym instead. He finished his first day, and it was crazy. In science class, his teacher told them a wild farce, about a man who ate radium. The man died, but for one hour he was insane! Marcel was very amused by this story, and decided to tell his counselor all about it. Marcel also fit right in at school. All the kids loved him, and he loved talking to the French class in French. The girls obviously adored him since he was foreign and handsome. One girl in particular really adored him. That girl was Jojo. Jojo was a shy, beautiful girl, who took a liking in Marcel. She helped him with his homework when he did not understand the English, and saw him at several parties. They have been hanging out for a while now, and Marcel grew to like her as well. Marcel started to ask her more and more for help, and she eventually caught on. One day, a filament in Jojo’s knitted purse came loose. Her purse soon unbounded itself, making her very sad. Marcel comforted her, and told her his

    In auteur theory, a term originated by film critic Andrew Sarris in his essay, "Notes on the Auteur Theory"16, there is a desire to outline the personal vision of the director. This is said to be the key instrument to understanding filmmaking. In addition, he writes the question is how does a director express personal vision? The concern is how this theory is used to examine the initial “obsessions” and “thematic preoccupations” of the director versus the original creator or author. This essentially becomes a study or attempt to outline the director's desire and/or personal statement.…

    So I went outside and hopped onto the fence to stare at the valley, then I hopped back down to play with my dog and before I knew it my dog had ripped a tear into it and just like that the jacket was ruined. So I was somewhat happy but what I had forgotten was that I had to go to school with that ugly jacket, because mom didn’t want me ruining it the first week. So I did and before I knew it, my friends were making fun of me, or so I thought. Even the nice girls wouldn’t talk to me, but that’s maybe not the reason. So maybe I should try and play something to get my mind off it, but what I knew was the jacket was still on and it would stay on for the rest of the week. But with a bunch of anger he knew in his head that he had another jacket after all. That other jacket was so nice that he couldn’t stop thinking of it, his teacher had to wake him up from daydreaming so much. But then just like that the week was over and he rushed home, threw on the jacket and right away, faster than a cheetah he flew out the front door off to school, and straight away when he got to school, he became the most popular kid…

    “I’m fourteen years old and I’ve been to forty-two funerals”, Junior says. That’s really the big difference between Indians and white people. In the community of Wellpinit, everyone is related, everyone is valued, everyone lives a hardscrabble life, and everyone is at risk for early death, and the loss of one person is a loss to the community. Compare Wellpinit to Reardan, whose residents have greater access to social services, health care, and wealth, and the people are socially distanced from each other. Junior uses a “matter- of- fact” statement to describe this great gap between a financially destroyed Indian community and a middle- class white town just a few miles away. He realizes that he doesn’t have to see himself as a person split in two. He sees that he is part of many different tribes (he is not only Indian, but a cartoonist, and a son, and a basketball player, and a bookworm, and so on…) Arnold knows that he’s not from Reardan or Wellpinit. He is multi-tribal.Junior’s parents, Rowdy’s father, and others in the Reardan community are addicted to alcohol, and Junior’s white “friend with potential”, Penelope has bulimia. “There are all kinds of addicts, I guess,” he says. We all have pain and we all look for ways to make pain go away. Junior understands there pains and he knows how to feel there pain. He doesn’t feel these exact pains but he still knows. A pain that Junior can relate to is the pain of being poor. It was Christmas and of course his father was going out to get drunk at a bar but that wasn’t surprising to Junior. Although, there was something surprising about the situation because his father came back not too long after but he had something for Junior. It was five dollars that Junior thought was going to be spent on alcohol by his father. Yea, it wasn’t a present or gift or a gift of some sort but it was special, special to Junior. This situation shows how poverty affects Junior’s lifestyle. We are so used to living the good life with a…
