RABBIT PROOF FENCE

Summary: In 1931, the state kidnapped 3 children, Molly, Gracie and Daisy, from their mothers. The authorities had started a project to force marriage the aborigines with white people so they will dilute.
A.O. Neville had heard about the three girls, and now he wanted them in his project. The girls were taken by force and placed in the institution in Moore River. After one day in the institution, Molly and the other girls escapes and they are prepared to walk the whole way home. They walked in three months and the police were always looking for them.
At the beginning of the trip, they just walked in a random direction. They met some people who could help them with food and other, but someone was dishonest and reported to the authorities. Suddenly Molly found a long fence, it had to be the rabbit proof fence that she knew went to Jigalong, their home village. They followed the fence in many thousand kilometers and met a man who said this was the wrong fence. They took a shortcut to the right fence and tricked the tracker and police. At the railway station, Gracie was taken by the police, but Molly and Daisy hided and wasn’t taken. Finally they arrived Jigalong without Gracie :(
This is a true story.

Theme: Australia.

Main characters: Molly and Daisy are siblings and Gracie(10) is their niece. Molly is the oldest (14) of them and Daisy the youngest (8 years). The smartest of them is Molly and she is a very good hunter. The leader of the “group” is also Molly; she is determined to go home. Gracie isn’t always so avid to walk all the way home and Daisy gets more easily tired in her legs than the others.

I think it is important to make films about indigenous people, and then we can learn how they live and how it was there at the time so it’s never forgotten.

A film such as this can have a positive impact on the general public’s image of indigenous people because it shows that white people is the bad men when they want to exterminate the Aborigines. Native people are often suppressed because they got a different race than the intruders. These films shows how bad the natives had, and how the whites only think of themselves, power and money.

Pride & Prejudice

We saw a movie at school called Pride and Prejudice. And now must we write a summary of it and say our opinion about the movie.

Plot summary:
The five sisters in family Bennet wants to marry a man who can support them in their lives.
Mr. Bingley and his friend Mr. Darcey moves out to the country and and mother Bennet sees a chance for her daughters to secure a good future. The oldes daughter gets in love with Bingley. There is "something" between Lizzie and Darcey but that is too advanced for me to tell about.
We are also following the other sisters' relationship.

What I think about the movie:
If I could understand anything of the movie, maybe it would be a little bit more interresting. But I didn't understand anything at all and the teacher says that it's not suitable for boys, so maybe it not would be interresting anyway. The main reason that I not understood the english must be because it was not possible to take on norwegian subtitles so we had to take on English. The movie was also complicated to watch.
