This week I watched the movie Bridge to Terabithia. This was
originally a book and was made into a movie later. The film is about two
children, Jesse and Leslie, who become friends. Together they are both somewhat
outcast children and rely on each other for company. They frequently journey
into the woods and eventually created a kingdom named Terabithia. Here in the
fantasy word of Terabithia the two children could rule and feel like they
belonged. Tragedy then strikes when Leslie tries to venture to Terabithia alone
in the midst of a storm and is killed. The story then turns to Jesse and how he
copes with the loss of his best friend. Special effects play a large part in
the movie as there are a lot of mystical creatures. Along with this there are
many different camera angles such as: high angle, longshot, and close ups. The
major theme in this movie I believe centers around man vs himself with how
Jesse is able to move on from his loss. Overall the movie was extremely sad but
it was really good. I would give it an 8 out of 10 and would recommend it to a
friend.
