    Many terms come to mind when thinking about the independent (“indie”) film industry. Low-budget, inexperienced actors, non-commercialized, and shallow plotline. However, there are several major stylistic aspects of independently produced films that define the genre in comparison to films that are produced by large production companies.

This means that they can break some of the normal rules of filming in order to amplify certain features shown. This aspect is one of the pillars that plays a large part of what independent films result in;…

    Love is a complex emotion. It has the ability to make you feel like you are flying, literally touching and seeing heaven. Yet it also has the ability to break your heart into a thousand pieces, hurt you in ways you never could have dreamed possible, make you feel all at once like you are living a nightmare and dying at the same time. Love can be wondrous when given freely and unconditionally, or it can be dangerous when wielded as a weapon. There is no love more multifaceted then that of a parent and child. The relationship between Vivi and Sidda personifies both ends of the love spectrum, oftentimes, to the extreme. Through Rebecca Wells’s “Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood” we are able to see Vivi’s beautiful, life giving love of Sidda, as well as the ease with which she brandishes her manipulation of the most painful aspects of love. Through Sidda we witness a child’s desperate need for approval, an unending desire to please and placate a mother who is both emotionally absent, and emotionally smothering, sometimes in the same breath. The “Divine Secrets” is a psychologically draining journey of a daughter’s quest to understanding the secrets to her mothers love.…

    An example of how Hosseini feels disgusted and sympathetic is when one of the main characters, Mariam Jo, is forced to go live with her father after her mother’s untimely death on page 36, “suddenly he was standing in front of her, trying to cover her eyes, pushing her back the way they had come saying ‘Go back! No. Don’t look now. Turn around! Go back!’. But he wasn’t fast enough. Mariam saw. A gust of wind blew and parted the drooping branches of the weeping willow like curtain, and Mariam caught a glimpse of what was beneath the tree: the straight backed chair, overturned. The rope drooping from a high branch. Nana dangling at the end of it.” This quote’s symbolism is in the drooping curtain like branches of the weeping willow to show the pain and despair soon to come to young Mariam. The belief that Hosseini is disgusted is on page 43 when Mariam’s tutor Mullah Faizullah is helping her through her difficult time, “your mother, may Allah forgive her, was a troubled and unhappy woman, Mariam Jo. She did a terrible thing to herself.” By having a positive guiding person say this it shows that Hosseini believes that the RIGHT thing to do is live this life and never take it away.…
