Why, Honey?

I read Why, Honey? by Raymond Carver. The story is about just a normal mother. Mothers always think their own child only good things, like the mother of this. It started when the boy was 15 years old. The family cat was lost and days later neighbor told the mother that the boy had killed by it. Mother couldn’t believe it. She couldn’t believe it until when the boy was caught lying and the cover-up. Boy got angry outbursts and eventually moved away from home. Mother was afraid of still child. She changed all the old life, the phonenumber, the name….

I think mother’s claims were reasonable. Mother’s are concerned about their own children. It is part of their nature. I think the mother has been right. It is not too much to ask that the boy would have told the truth. I think the narrator is a mother who wrote a letter.  The narrator’s information is reliable. Mother had suffered from large pain, she had to share the pain and share it with someone.

 

 

 

The Back-up Plan

The Back-up Plan is a romantic comedy like the other, things just happen in a different order. In general, things happen like this: dating, love, marriage, family. The Back-up Plan movie things are upside down. Zoe (Jennifer Lopez) is already thirty and tired of waiting for true love, so she takes the lead and decide to have a baby. Before it’s too late. She wants to be a mother so she is preparing for a Back-up Plan. She goes to the doctor with her ​​embryo implanted. The same day, Zoe meets Stan (Alex O´Loughlin) and find out that their chemistries are in place. Zoe’s life becomes more difficult when she is trying to cover up the early signs of pregnancy, and at the same time nurture their relationship. Zoe’s strange behavior raises Stan’s imagination. Zoe finally reveals the reason for behavior and Stan promises to stay next to Zoe. Zoe is hard to trust and believe that Stan will remain by her side no matter that the child is not biologically their common. Stan, however, treat the baby as his own, and is fully prepared for Zoe and the child’s behalf. How easy it is to fall in love, get married and start a family. When things go in the other way around, Zoe and Stan find able to cope with the difficulties that they belong together.

The Back-up Plan has been published in 2010. I like the movie because it is funny and perverse things happen in the order. The actors are great and fit their roles perfectly. Back-up plan is open-minded experience. Characters have been a lot of fun and the emotional. Minor characters are rare. The film focuses on only Zoe, Stan and the baby. And rightly so, this movie can not add anything. Simple is beautiful just the way it is. 305
