The movie Stand by me is about these 4 best friends that take a journey to find a missing body. One of the boys over hears his brothers talking and he figures out where they found the body so he tells the rest of his friends and they go on a long hunt. Through it they learn different things and they learn that things aren't easy for them. In the end you really see how true friendships go because they stop talking and lose touch with one another. One of the characters Chris he comes from a bad family and everyone thinks he's going to grow up to be this horrible person and are judgmental about he is, and how he carries himself as a person.
For example one of his friends father says "with your thief friend" talking about Chris. Chris had this brother that was bad in school so his brother reputation wore off on him. To me this is kind of an ignorant comment because the father doesn't even really know Chris so why call him on something that you don't know weather its true or not, and to me its not fair nor right that he was judged in that way. Here's the twist in the end they show how Chris bettered his life and became a lawyer so everything that people assumed about him was wrong he became something beyond that, and proved people. This shows that Chris never really gave up until he became what he wanted, and showed people that hes beyond the reputation that they gave him.
In my opinion he did the right thing, he didn't give people the benefit of the doubt which is something that all people should do. When someone says you shouldn't do something it doesn't mean that you stop trying or give them what they want and show that you are weak, but it should motivate you to do better and show them how strong you are. Don't let people's words bring you down but let them bring you motivation, because what good does it do when you give up and show them that your week? or show them that they were right, even when you have the potential to prove them wrong. It all matters on how you interpret the words people say, and how you use them in life. either as good or bad.
I agree with you. when someody says that you can't do something then you should take it as a motivation and not as something to bring you down
ReplyDeleteI also wrote about the movie Stand By Me, and I absolutely agree with you and Meghan because that person is just trying to bring you down. You know you can obviously do better then what they said so take it as a motivation to strive. The father should never judge someone even if its his own kid. -_-
