hi people, I'm new here,
would 21 Grams be a inner journey?
that was my first choice but now after writing 2 pages of notes I'm not so sure. Plus my tutor told me to do another no because its not really an inner journey...

Leunig cartoon 'let it go'

I found the Leunig cartoon 'let it go' but I can not seem to find the resemblance to an inner journey but I want to use it for my assessment can someone please help me to explain how it is an inner journey ...

Also Without a paddle the movie with Seth Green, Matthew Lillard and Dax is a good text for inner journey ... If you haven't seen it don't read .... But all three of the guys after traveling to find the skkydivers treasure they realize alot of things about life and more significantly is Matthew Lillard's character as he now treats his girlfriend alot nicer in the end .... (bad explanation, I know but I can explain it better if you ask)

well, i just finished HSC (haha suckers! nah, i luv u all )
for my supplementary texts i used:
The Scream - existenialist painting by Edvard Munch
The Shipping News - movie by director Lasse Hallstrom
then i used Journey to the Interior (Atwood) from the stimulus booklet and my prescribed text Cosi by Louis Nowra

believe me guys - four texts is more than enough to talk about in the one 40 minute essay ok! if you go overboard you dont get the same depth of knowledge and, rather than it looking like you've done a lot of work, it just ends up looking like you didnt know enough about any of your texts.

my tip would be to make sure that you're texts are different forms of media, to try and minimise the repetition of techniques (ie. you limit yourself if you use all novels or poems and then you have the same techniques with the same effect in all of them)

 

[HekToZ]

Im not sure wether these are good or not, but Ive decided to do:

Warlock - by Wilbur Smith (Book)
Crawling - by Linking Park (Song)

And that episode of the Simpsons where Homer eats the chillis and has to find his soul mate.

What do yous think?

i probably wouldnt do two songs cause it supposed to show our range on analytical skills so i would see if you can find a cartoon or something visual like that instead hope it helps

hope it helps
