fictional portfolio
This paper is basically a portfolio of the fictional stories that has been discussed during class. Four (4) out of the six (6) stories which would cover Irish (European), American, African and Japanese writting are to be included in the paper. These would be mainly Araby, Roman Fever, Crackling Day and in a grove. The portfolio will also include supplementary materials which would be fitting for the said works. The manner in which the supplementary materials will be presented would be in two ways. First would be through the historical life story of the author itself. A connection will be found between his life and its influence on his works. Now in order to have a modern twist, the second way would be through several movies which would be connected with each of the four chosen works. This would bring a sense of Deja vu in the part of the readers. Also, the connection between the movies and the published works will give the reader a clearer view on the points emphasized by the author. For Araby, the movie "Vanilla sky" is chosen. For Roman Fever, the movie "Death becomes her" is chosen. For Crackling Day, the movie "Amistad" is chosen. And finally for in a grove, the movie "outrage" is chosen.
This stars the famous trio Meryl Streep, Bruce Willis and Goldie Hawn. Meryl and Goldie as being friends, who hate each other, play the same roles as Alida Slade and Grace Ansley. In the part of the boy, his pride towards his perception of Araby has only led to further disappointment. Wharton had to spend her life struggling against indifference and, on occasion, hostility. After having done this portfolio, I gained new insights on how fiction stories really are. But how else are both similar? Well, both movies more or less have the same situation on its characters. Just as Grace had an affair with Delphin, Goldie has an affair with Bruce. It seems as if she brings her etiquette into writing. Much of her fiction relates partially autobiographical sketches of the kinds of people she grew up with. They're rich, beautiful and treat men as to being their trophy. Everything was uptight, civil and as we Filipino's would call it "pa-sosyal". The movie that had struck me the most would be Death Becomes Her. This explains her setting in stories such as Roman Fever. This explains his romantic delusions towards Penelope Cruz in which other situations of the movie only happened in his head.
