Jeremiah Johnson : Nation Building

At first i think this movie is a little bored for me because it's an action movie and i've no idea why the man in this story have to eat human organs which also scary me a lot but it has many good ideas and knowledges for me especially about American culture.

Before hand, i have learnt that in the past American people lived with nature and their folk is very simple. They find their foods to eat and cook them immediately. The people in that time were called Indian, their culture is very interested, their society in that time is not complex like present, there were one people who acted as the leader and ruled that society, people there also respect each others. Moreover; i also perceived the love of mother which she gave to her child, she might taught her child very good because children in that period have high responsibility, they worked sine they were very young to help their father. Nonetheless; she also take care of her husband very well.

In that period, i think the dangerouses are all around like tigers, wolves. People have to be ready to fight almost every time, they also have to fight to protect their territory.

The Scarlet Letter


This is the classical love story which is very funny but it is a little bit bored because it is black & white. i think it would be very interesting if it is colored.

However; this movie can be classified as a good movie since what i got is not only the entertainment, i also got some ideas about American cultures which are very interesting like the respomsibility of American people toward their duty, The punishment of their doing and moreover, the way of life of American people in that period for example the way they dressed, children activity, party and church activity.

I also perceived the feeling of true love which the man can sacrifices to the women and i adore it a lot because i believe that love is the thing that everyone needs but it is hard to witness the miracle.
