family film analysis (pursuit of happiness)

the family relationships aren't healthy in the film.parents have trouble in each other while there is no problem between child(Christopher) and the parents. the women(Linda) seems aggressive,hopleless, bored of everything and quite unhappy. in contrast, her husband(Chris) is aware of their bad situation(due to financial problems) but he is not hopeless and doesn't behave her wife badly. eventually, there is no just dominant character in the family but some of the behaviour of Linda seems like that(ı will mention that later). their marriage is not marriage anymore. ındeed there is no relationship in their each other. in this film, the situation of the marriage is linked to the financial problems. it is clearly understood from their speech..it is only based on it.problems occurs from here. Linda makes pressure on Christ by telling him about their debths or something like that instead of giving him morale and showing him that she trusts him and being with him.ı think she should do these because he has already been in trouble due to the financial problems, yet he has hope to do something to be able to make situation better. but she doesn't give him change and respect his ideas. the problems are between the parents.but these have impacts on son.one day she is leaving home. and Christopher starts to live with his father. it is controversial question, which one is better, being with his both parents in unhealthy conditions or away from one of them and be happier.( ı think second one is more logical.) after Linda leaves the home, the only think Christ thinks is , how to deal with his son. because he has a responsibility to his son. so he started to struggle more to be able to make their life better. thanks to his cleverness, ambitiousness and creativeness, he became successful. he pursited the happiness and gained it.

what is marriage for?

in today's world people marry to have children and to have the sexual relationship. these may be without marriage but it doesn't seem good by society because it is perceived as a tradition cultural and even religious event(but the writer doesn't mention that). ın addition to these, laws play a key role in marriage. Because many people want to insure themselves. the writer says "when law and culture retreat from sustaining the marriage idea, individuals cannot create marriage on their own".ı think she meant this.... and the common question is that what the children positions, psychology will be if their parents aren't married. the article include many idea about this issue. it is obvious that marriage is good for children and their growth but if it works properly. otherwıse it gives harm to the children and the man and woman...besides them. not all the marriages have to include baby.if we make a correlation between baby and gay marriage. there is no relation between having a baby and gay marriage.

what are we fighting for

ı think same sex marriages should be legal. because it is related to equality and if we advocate equality, we shoudn't ignore it. a great number of people' concerns about this issue that legitimating these marriages may have negative impact on children or teenagers. number of these marriges will increase and children will emulate.but ı don't agree with this idea. ı thinl people who haven't such tendencies don't emulate.... in addition to that, it isn't perversion or something like that it is mostly inherent and realted to feeling not only matter of choice.

where are you going where have you been

in this story, ı think her decision to go with him not because only he threaten her getting her family hurt. if so she wouldn't think all the things like there is nothing that belonged to her. Therefore, both of them play a role in this decision. ın addition to that, perhaps she felt obligated, captive after he threatened her and there is no other choice because her family is in danger.because of all thees she wanted to find an other reason to go with him not from only obligation. and by listening what Arnold was saying and thinking on her own about her life she found another reason.
