IV. My Reaction

A. Reaction Point - setting
  • The context in time and place in which the action of a story occurs.
  • He talked about the his life. But this story was not true.
  • Two time progresses at the same time. This distinction is plain and can get into the story.

B. Reaction Point - message
  • the central idea or statement of a story
  • he regret that it was not able to be said that he loves to her.
  • It is important to step forward with courage because nothing begins even if too shy. Courage is necessary to live a life I don't regret.

C. Reaction Point - acting
  • playing a character in a play or movie
  • Expression of her crying scene and person of the talk
  • It was the performance that came that she really grieved. Though he only talks, it is splendid to express a feeling only with a tone and the expression of the voice.

D. My General Opinion
Though it was a very short film, the content of the story was clear and plain.
I thought that this was the movie which could teach a lesson not to spend the regret life. I think it is important for spending great life to have courage.
How to use BGM was good, and I was drawn into this movie immediately. And though two chronological order progressed at the same time, it was expressed clearly.
It was easy to see it by my favorite childhood friend setting and was interesting.
