A and P: Movie Review

Gallant After watching the film A&P In coincidence to the discussion In the classroom, a lot of the topics ar current trends and Issues In the 20th century. There female genitals be much discussion about many things in the film. After watching the film stock-still rather than from the reading and discussion in class, I pictured things differently in my own mind. Upon number 1 trying to relate it to the sasss, I actually thought the film was pretty odder and could be possible in todays times, depending on a store and its management, whether an independently owned little store or a big box grocery store. The main character, Sammy, who displays an 18 or 19 year old male teenrs feelings are very much alike as all boys during the adolescence years. John Update himself reported In his oppugn of when he was vernal and married and 29 years of age that he could relate to these types of feelings and fantasy dreams which prompted him to indite the story.I could not envision however In the sasss of actually seeing any young girls in dishwashing suits that would be daring enough to walk in a store dressed in such(prenominal) a way. Personally, I do not recall seeing any young teenage girls do this during those times. I did grow up in the sasss. I recall most young women being more than demure and even seeing something such as this might result in a practice of law ar perch perhaps. Perhaps I am being naive as I was a young child during this period but dont recall families allowing their young girls to behave in such a way.Sammy appears to be bold In that time period In my opinion of how he chose to Just quit his calling because he TLD believe the same beliefs as his manager, Mr.. Lange. While emergence up In the sissy, many children and adults alike, from what I saw and remember were taught to massage hard and success would then follow. Many of the male adult family relatives were absent serving in the Navy or Army and those at home, especially the women, had chores at home, like backwash and cooking, were working hard still because they had larger families to feed.My grandmother who had 13 or 14 hillier had also worked crack up time in a retail chain called J. J. Newbury. Our family would never have heard of a teenage boy being able to quit his job Just because he didnt agree with his manager who was his elder. Teenagers growing up in the sasss whom I was exposed to had to respect their elders and do as adults around them expected and work hard for their families with chores to do along with school work in order to receive allowances from the family In crop for the hard work. The Job was Important If a teenager had one to share the wages with their family.Regarding consumers as a society of pigs, cows, and sheep, and an older womans attitude compared to a witch that should be burned in Salem was never even a be rebelling to soon becoming an adult in the near future and possibly could be one of these people. He is suppressing some self-discovery and trying to figure out where he fits in a society and perhaps wondering if he belongs working in a grocery store for the rest of his life or if he really should be having fun like the young girls laughing and campaign about in the store.
