How I Met Your Mother: Character

This scene of How I Met Your Mother is a collection of different moments in the episode where Marshall and Lily break up. They have been together since the first day of college, nine years, and are about to get married, but Lily has cold feet. She is a painter and a kindergarden teacher who had dreams of traveling the world. Marshall is getting his degree to be an environmental lawyer. Another thing you need to know about this scene is that when Lily and Marshall fight, they tend to last days, so, they decided at any time during an arguement they could say pause to stop the fighting. That's why they weren't yelling at eachother while they were talking about pudding and Ted. He is their roomate and the one who found Marshall sitting on the steps at the end.

 

It think this is a good representation of character because even though they are fighting, you can get a sense of how they act when they aren't. This individul scene wraps up their essence well because this is a tragedy and they are the type of people who can joke about it. Also, this demonstrates relational conflict because they are breaking up and there is nothing Marshall can do to change Lily's mind. This is just something she has to do. Lastly, I think the dialogue fits the characters extremely well in this scene.

The Blind Side: Impactful Moment

This is a scene from the end of the movie "The Blind Side" and I think it is an extremely powerful part. The two people hugging in the movie are Michael Oher, an extremely talented football player, and his adoptive mother, Mrs. Tuohy. They are saying goodbye on his first day of college. Earlier that year, she'd found him on the streets and offered him to stay at their home. From then on, he was her son.

Please ignore the subtitles.

I really like that scene because, even though nothing is actually happening, it is one of the most important scenes in the movie. The dialogue suggests how easily things could have been utterly different. It teaches us that it's always important to make the right decisions and do the right things, like she did. I also really like the detail of the newspaper because it really adds to the emotion of the video. Overall, I think this scene works for me because it wraps up the entire movie perfectly and gives the viewer something to think about.
