Essay 1-03b: Great Father

I watched a movie in a writing class. The movie's name is "Mrs. Doubtfire." It is a comedy movie and very fun. I do not so often watch movies, but I like to watch movies so I enjoyed watching it. Then I have two interests about this movie, and a man is a great father. I will explain the story outline, first.

There is a man who is a voice artist. His name is Daniel.  He has a wife and 3 children, two daughters and one son. His wife's name is Miranda, and their children's names are Lidya, Natalie, and Chris (I don't know them names' spell, so maybe not this).  One day, Daniel went back from his work because he quarreled his superior why he acted a character's voice by he felt. That is not match for character's action and his voice. Then he was fired. He met his children in the return road to his house. The day was near that his son's birthday. Then, he was suggestion that will have birthday party.He held a birthday party very noisy. There are a lot of kinds animals around his house because he invited mobile zoo. Animals ate some flowers, then, a grandmother who did not think good this party called the man's wife. She was working then, but she came back soon and was angry.Then, he and his wife divorced. Children would took care by Miranda. Daniel could meet his loving children only once a week. Some days passed, Miranda was so busy about her work so she decided to hire a new home help. Daniel thought of an idea that he disguised as a woman and would be hire by her as an old woman...

The first thing that I have interests of two is "Voice Acting."
Daniel can act a lot of kinds of voices. It is not easy to do for everyone. I like Japanese animations, so I watch some Japanese animations. Animation's characters' voice are acted by voice actors. They express their acting characters' feeling only their voices. I always feel rather bad feel than do not notice "voice act." Sometimes not voice actors appoint as dubbing foreign animation movies and so on, I feel somewhat... not natural. I sometimes challenge voice act. I recorded my voice and I listen to that. I fell it is not natural, always.

On the beginning that the movie, he acted animation characters. Cheerful bird and Spiteful Dog. He acted the two characters only by he. He changed his voice little, and perfectly used them! Then, he sang the voice! I surprised. Then he announced his voice act for interview for a job, and he acted "Mrs. Doubtfire." It is not easy to do. I think he is a dexterous man. He is suit that entertain with a lot of people, but little is not suit working, I think.

The other thing that my interest, that is "Father's Love for Children."
Daniel loves his children, and his children also loves their father. Then, They are so good relationships. I feel father's love for his children from this movie. My father also loves his child, me, and I also loves he. My father takes care of me, he earn money for my family and a all of things he do for me, or our, I thank him!! I can not thank him enough. I am so appreciate.

Daniel was not a good worker at first, but he loved his children and he thought of his children that they would be happy. After he was divorcee, he also thought of his children and he loved them. He disguised as a woman only he wanted to meet his children as everyday!! I do not know what we call this expect love. I think he is very good father. He is a "father."

I think Daniel is rather a good father than a great father. He can do great voice act, and he loves for his children. He is a great father. I respect for him so much. At first, he was not good worker, but he was divorced by his wife, he changed his mind and he worked hard. Then he was hired (as an old woman home help) a new job, he did his work hardly for his children and for him. He perfectly(?) acted an old woman. He is a great father, I think.

Speaking Story: Rusty, Ruthie and Lucy


   Rusty and Ruthie have an intimate relationship. They live at a college dormitory. Lucy is a monkey. She lives in a zoo next to the railroad station.
   Last Monday, Rusty and Ruthie planned to go to a movie. They left their dormitory at 12:50 in the afternoon, but they went in different directions. Because, Rusty needed to go to a record store and to a post office, and Ruthie needed to go to a bank which is next to the McDonald’s before going to the movie theater. Rusty went to the record store to return a CD that he had rented. And, at 1:00 pm he was at the post office to send a letter to his friend in Japan. At the same time, Ruthie was at the bank. She needed some money for the movie and some others things.

Lucy crossed Park Avenue between the hotel and the used car lot, and at 1:00 she was at the grocery store. When Ruthie got to the bank, she saw a monkey inside the grocery store. That monkey was Lucy. Lucy stole a banana from the grocery store, then she ran away, and at 1:10 she stopped in the middle of the intersection of Pacific Avenue and 2nd street to eat the banana.
   At the time, Ruthie was at a coffee shop next to the movie theater, and Rusty was at Macy’s.
   At 1:25, Rusty and Ruthie got together in the movie theater. They bought two tickets for them to watch ‘spider-man.’ Then while they were waiting for the movie, They bought prinks and a big cup of popcorn. Ruthie told Rusty about the monkey she saw in front of the grocery store.
   When they were in the movie theater, Lucy was sleeping in a tree in King Park. After that, Lucy was captured by the zoo keeper and Lucy went back to the zoo.
