A Life In A Day

In my class we watched a movie called, a Life in a Day. The way this movie was made was, a bunch of people around the world filmed what there day was like on July 24th and sent there videos into a professional editor. The editor mashed all the videos together and made a beautiful movie. The scenes that I remember most is, when the boy was making money by polishing shoes, the concert in Germany when a lot of people died, the scars on the back of the mom with cancer, the cyclist who is traveling around the world on bike, and the goat when it got its head chopped off.
The scenes that gave me a positive reaction was the cyclist, the man that got a piano, the old couple getting married again for there anniversery, and the baby being born. Some negative scenes were, the German Love concert, the mom with cancer, the family that prayed everyday for their lost mother, and the goat that got its head cut off.
In the movie the scenes kept switching from poor to rich, from happy to sad, the p.attern followed juxtaposition. Juxtaposition is when you go from one thing, to its complete opposite. Some petterns of juxtaposition I saw were a man with a big house, and then a home in the forest made of grass. THis movie made me feel various emotions. I felt curious, sad, happy, thankful, and caring. I felt this way because when I saw how happy or sad people were I had feelings for them. The movie made me think of how big our world really is and how messed up but yet beautiful it can be. I would recommend this movie to someone spoiled or anyone that's in a bad situation because it will show the spoiled how little other people have and all they want is more, and it shows the people in bad situations that you're not the only one.


BOTTOM LINE WATCH THIS MOVIE!
