Character Review : The Drover

In “Australia”, the Drover (Hugh Jackman) is the male leading character of the movie. He portrayed a dishevelled rough-hewn local, known as the Drover. He is an experienced stockman, who moves livestock, especially cattle, “on the hoof” over long distances in order to move animals during a drought in search of better feed and water or to deliver them to a new owner’s property. The Drover made his acquaintance with Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman) when he gets into a fight in a pub on the way to meet her from her plane in Darwin. The prim set of Lady Sarah’s luggage is swept up into the maelstrom of fists between them and even a man's head is punched through one suitcase. To make the things worst, her flimsy underwear, lacy pants and slips flies into the air, against the deep blue sky. The Drover is humorous. In such circumstance, he even greets Lady Sarah: “Welcome to Australia!” and this make her paralysed with anger as well as embarrassment. The drover is independent. This showed when he reluctant to help Lady Ashley in her quest to save both her philandering husband's Australian cattle and the half-caste Aboriginal child, Nullah she finds there. He does not want to get involved in the conflicts between the English white man and the aboriginal child as well as with the unscrupulous employee named Fletcher who is cheating on Lady Sarah husband’s business. He is contented and happy with his current job. However, the Drover is actually compassionate. At last, he could not bear to let Lady Sarah to endure the entire predicament by her own and thus willing to give her a helping hand to drive thousand heads of cattle across Australia’s breathtaking yet brutal landscape to Darwin so that Faraway Downs can be saved. Without denying the fact, the Drover is a man with ego as well. This revealed when the time Lady Sarah told him that Nullah is not going to “walkabout” but being captured. He just believed in himself and without even consider what did Lady Sarah say. He quarrels with her and leaves the home for droving. Besides, he is reluctant to become the partner of Lady Sarah in the charity ball. He is afraid that others will criticise him for trying to be loved with the woman with higher social level than him. However, he is sincere to his feelings at last and finally appeared in the charity ball with a clean-shaven and handsome look. This impressed Lady Sarah and their love story unfolds here.
On the other hand, the Drover is also brave enough by risking her life to rescue Nullal who has been captured by the authorities and sent to live on Mission Island with the rest of the half-Aboriginal children. Through the entire story, the Drover is indeed an enchanting man with those exemplary behaviours and this impress me a lot.

Coach Carter Movie Review

“Coach Carter” is a sports movie in year 2005 by director Thomas Carter. No doubt, sports movie always seem to be more interesting and drew much attention of the audience. It is even more heart wrenching when the director injects several shots of adrenaline.
The true-life story of Coach Ken Carter who tries to teach his players that academic excellence was just as important as sporting prowess is brought to the screen. The story begins to unravel when Ken Carter, once a top basketball player in Richmond High School returned to the school as a new basketball coach. As he found out that the team has been playing their awful games and fight is usually ended up in the court, he decided to make a revolution that turns the team from inner city loser into student athletes. The key word: student. He forced each of the players to sign a contract obligates them to maintain 2.3 Grade Point Average, to attend every class and sit in the front row. When it comes to discipline, Carter is ruthless as well. He asked the players to call him – ‘sir’ instead of using those rude words, and to wear ties when game on. Besides, if crossed him, it might mean 500 push-ups or even more. He emphasized conditioning and defense over offence, and it works. Everything was going well for the team had played their own games and became the winning team in most of the games, not until the players’ academic progress reports arrived.
The climax comes when Carter found out that several players failed to obtain the grade mandated in the contract. He locked down the gymnasium, cancelled the practices and games until their marks improved. You may think that their parents would embrace his deed. But no, the parents protested his action in favour of the only way their children can out of ghetto, by falling into the stereotype of either basketball player or rapper. Carter’s plan quickly became the controversy among parents and team booster, and their objections were soon picked up by the local news media, many of whom were not sympathetic to Carter’s belief that his players must have goal beyond college ball or the NBA. As a result, the gymnasium was unlocked and Carter decided to leave the school. However, his players started to truly understand him. They began to comprehend the life-skills lessons Carter had been teaching them when he analysed the graduation and prison statistics to them during one of their library session. They continued to hit the books and continue the lockout although the school board votes to end it. Finally, due to their efforts, they achieved the grade demanded by the coach and they get back to the games. Coach Carter was kind enough to prepare his players for this plan in case their hoop dreams did not materialise. Therefore, in the end, most of his players ended up in the college and their majors ranging from business to communications.

Without denying the fact, “Coach Carter” is a motivational movie. It tries to convey the message upon teenagers that education is the first step on the path to success, and it is possible to help them escape from the vicious circle of poverty and violence. Besides, the movie discloses some ever-growing burning social issues that happen frequently in our society. For instance, there is a decent-seeming young man, Kenyon who faces the challenge of teenage fatherhood after impregnating his girlfriend, Kyra. And the coach’s academic-minded son, Damien was influenced by his less studious team mates. The drug smuggling is also revealed by Cruz. At first, he was so bad to revolt against his coach. However, after the death of his close friend-Renny, he only regretted and begged forgiveness from his coach. After attaining some achievements, the players even dared enough to attend the illegal pool party without the knowledge of their coach. These social issues are jeopardised teenagers nowadays. Therefore, the director is in an attempt to make the teenagers be aware of it.

Although “Coach Carter” is considered as a sports movie, it failed to satisfy the sports fans because not much basketball games are showed in detail. And the soundtrack songs of the movie are not best-matched with the movie. Some actors are having their poor acting skills as well. One of them is Channing Tatum who portrayed the character named, Lyle but he is a very cute and handsome guy though. However, the director did a good job that the movie’s moral messages are all on target.
In conclusion, “Coach Carter” is definitely an inspirational movie and is suitable to be shared together in a class.

she is a girl (of course !) who physically looked tough and fierce but actually she is not

she always cruelly said that she wanna threw me out from the window here (3rd floor)
but at last , she didn't (sure ! or else she will enjoy the curry rice in the prison ^ ^ : copy Mr.Yee's words )
i dunno what makes her so keen of throwing me
but i know she loves me in fact . haha
as a proof, she bought a book shelf and kindly reserved one space for me =)
because she complained that my desk is too messy ! !

haven't put any books yet ... cherish it so much , that's why need to plan nicely before put ! hehe

for your information, my room-mate quite dislike the song named 'poker face'. this is because she nearly heard this song at least once in a day,
she fed up already!

so instead of being her nice room-mate,
i had done something bad in return for her kindness to me
>>i borrowed a book named "poker-face" and give her
haha that's meant now she not only can hear that song,but can even read and understand it as well ! haha hw good is it ...


i acted childish right ? i know i know

Stupid boy

Today English lesson was quite interesting because Ms Dil entertained us ! ( as she promised >< ) she played the song named * S T U P I D - B O Y * by Keith Urban and asked us to write down the lyrics ( frankly, quite tough for me T_T yet i managed to write out the complete lyrics at last since Ms Dil kingly showed us )


















Keith Urban : "am i a stupid boy ?" lol




















It is a nice song and seemed like quite modern because strong beat is being used
This song is a gentle reminder to us all to value our partner . more likely to urge those 'stupid guys' to value their girl friends . haha . no offend no offend >< ( dont beat me )

Ms Dil also kind enough to advise us neither behave like 'stupid boy' (dump girlfriend) nor 'stupid girl' (love a guy blindly)

How true is it @.@
but i think not many can indeed apply it in real life










Overall, today i was not only being introduced a new song but a new love theory
^_________^
