Throughout the movie, the audience is able to visualize what types of issues are dealt with as well as what type of problems the characters had to go through to resolve their crisis. Chelsea also had different issues than Billy due to the fact; each were facing a different stage as well as crisis. Personally this movie provide me a great understanding in human development; I was able to understand why each person does a certain action: for instance my sister is disrespectful and immature because she is facing the adolescence stage as well as the identity versus role confusion stage. I also learned that a crisis can truly affect a person in a negative; if the person is not able to fully deal with their crisis.

On her journey, Sal is able to relive her own story through her friend, Phoebe, whose mother also left. The book Walk Two Moons is representative of a heroine’s journey rather than a hero’s journey because Sal must leave her home to escape the challenges there, she finds a mentor along her journey which she eventually leaves, and she goes home to share what she has learned on her journey after she has discovered herself.

    Chapter Three: Symbolism: Why are the notes so important? I think that one of the most obvious symbols in this story is the notes Ms. Partridge sent to Phoebe and her family. These notes seemed to line up with problems in the story, throughout the whole story. “Don’t judge a man until you’ve walked two moons in his moccasins.” (Walk Two Moons, 61).

    Although, the climax of the story happens when she peels the wallpaper from the wall, therefore releasing her from imprisonment; the problem isn’t resolved because she is insane now and didn’t get better. The external conflict is man versus society, the internal conflict is man versus himself, and the central conflict is man versus man. The external conflict is man versus society because of how society viewed women at that time as they were seen to be beneath man, and it showed in how they were treated. The internal conflict is man versus himself because the narrator had to deal with depression and the treatment, which made it worse for her. The central conflict is man versus man because the narrator has to deal with the way her husband is treating her as a human and as a patient.

  • Internal And External Conflict In Walk Two Moons

    829 Words  | 2 Pages

    The author of Walk Two Moons states, “Ever since my mother left us that April day, I suspected that everyone was going to leave me, one by one” (55). From the author’s words, we can see that this formed an internal force, man vs. self, because even though she went through this experience, she still has the thought of everyone leaving her which will come back and say Sal should not be afraid. In the novel, the author speaks, “One of the maple leaf circles was mine. The other was Ben’s,” (122). From this, it shows that this made an internal conflict, man vs. fate, because Sal knows what this means, but does not wish for it to be true. This all will lead later on for Sal and Ben getting together. From the novel, the text reads, “---running around like crazed animals, jumping over the furniture, and tossing footballs” (146). This leads to the fact that this conjured up an external force, man vs. man, because Sal shows annoyance for Mary Lou’s two younger brothers doing crazy things which makes Sal frustrated. From these pieces of text, the author shows that Sal has changed by her
