Film Viewing Review- Remarriage 1. What are some of the issues of Dating after divorce or widowhood? What did you see in the film? Some of the problems of dating after divorce is finding a suitable partner who may not have any children or baggage at an older age. In this movie both the mom and dad had children and it was tough to keep a strong relationship because both of them had to keep an eye on the all the kids. Also when a parent finds another partner, it can be a major problem for the kids to accept each other as a family and that can cause major problems or fights. Not accepting each other because the kids do not want change is an issue of a parent dating another person. I saw all of this in the film and it was pretty apparent to me. The last thing I saw was the two sets of kids wanting their parents to break up. That is a real problem and can cause lots of stress on the parents.

A unique feature is that step family have the ability to a true family. Just because you aren’t related to your step sibling doesn’t mean you can’t be true siblings. I really enjoyed watching the family come together and accepting each other and working together. Also, what was unique is that this family finally worked out how to be successful together. They started to get in their routines at home just like a real family would and the need for the schedule wasn’t as apparent towards the end of the

  • Analysis Of The Film 'Bridesmaids'

    1671 Words  | 4 Pages

    The ways in which Bridesmaids rejects patriarchal structures while simultaneously supporting them establishes a unique ideology: in order to meet the cultural comedic conception, these female characters reject particular standards of patriarchy, but the ways in which they do so successfully are due to their adherence to masculine norms and symbolic reversal (Buckley 19). Thus, Bridesmaids resists the male gaze and gives women empowerment to take the an active role in comedy, liberating them in the sense that it equates their humor to that of men’s, to embody new forms of feminine desire for women in cinema. In response to the men at the beginning of this essay who would say Bridesmaids doesn’t deliver this, Tina Fey has some words for them, “We don’t fucking care if you like it” (Moss).

  • My Parents Got A Divorce

    A lot of children tend to develop “normally” with two married parents. Others don’t develop the same. To me, children who go through divorce don’t develop normally. My parents are no longer together and I thought I turned out okay. I have social skills, friends, and a close relationship with both my parents.

  • Argumentative Essay On Marriage And Family

    823 Words  | 2 Pages

    “What’s Love Got to Do With it,” is about the transition of marriages throughout the centuries. Marriage has just recently begun to be centered and initiated due to love rather than as a business transaction. Stephanie Coontz has researched and written many articles based on varying topics between marriage and family. In this article Coontz (2005) argues that many marriages had absolutely nothing to do with love, in fact she found that it was not uncommon for marriages to not only be similar to a business transaction but that it was not uncommon for there to be multiple people in marriage. Multiple people in a marriage seems ludicrous to many people, myself included, but for a very long time what happened between a man and a woman was also between the entire community. Coontz wrote in another article “authorities and neighbors were more concerned with wives who challenged patriarchal power than with husbands who abused it” (2005:141). This states that society was more disturbed by a woman possibly overturning the authority that society had set out for the grosser sex.
