The Killers - What do you think George, Nick, Ole Anderson, Max, and Al will do after the story ends?

The Killers
- Ernest Hemingway


This writing is just my opinion.

                                                                                                                                 

• In the beginning of this story, George looks like he isn’t good at understanding the atmosphere, so he asks Max what Max will do. However, at the last part of story, he says to Nick “You better not think about it.”  At first, George actually tries to help Ole Anderson can escape the bad situation, but George changes his mind that deciding to forget about Max & Al’s plan because Ole Anderson looks like he doesn’t want to escape the situation.

• Nick says to George that he will get out of the town because he doesn’t want to see Ole Anderson will be killed by Max & Al. However, he just says like that nevertheless he doesn’t want get out of the town. Probably, he wants to express his mind strongly at that time. He will try to help Ole Anderson constantly before Ole Anderson will be killed even though O. Anderson doesn't want it.

• Ole Anderson will be killed by Max & Al, but not soon. Ole Anderson seems as if he has already been waiting for his death. He undestands all this situation.

• Al thinks they (he and Max) tell their plan too much, so he will behave more carefully. At first, he will understand how the situation is going (because they tell their plan too much) and then, he will start to act. Anyway, he will kill Ole Anderson. The situation will be going to well for Al because O. Anderson has already been waiting for Al & Max.

• Max isn’t cautious person. He is a kind of impulsive person. He will instigate Al to kill Ole Anderson as soon as possible, but he will follow Al’s opinion. Al’s power looks a little stronger than Max’s.

Hills Like White Elephants - Discuss how the male protagnist changed

When she says “They look like white elephants”, his response is just that “I’ve never seen one”. It seems as if he doesn’t concern about her comment, and he doesn’t look like he is interested in talking with her. He feels a little annoyed to her because he doesn’t want to talk about that. However, he changes his attitude a little after they talk about their pro-born baby,.

             Then, he recommends that she take an operation to get rid of the baby. His attitude is very direct at that time. As soon as the topic comes up, he tells his opinion quickly. In addition, he insists his opinion quite strongly. He says “It’s the only thing that’s made us unhappy.

             I think he just pretends to not interested in talking with the girl because he knows they would talk about this topic (abortion or not) some time, and the girl has a different opinion with him.

             He changes his opinion from getting the abortion to not getting the abortion if she really doesn’t want even though he actually wants she has the abortion. Moreover, he actually stops talking when she asks him. He shows a little weak figure. He is concerned about her feeling compared to his former figure.

             In my opinion, he changes be warm to her.

This movie, "Being There", is very funny.

This movie, "Being There", is very funny.

 I saw this movie really really interestingly. I wasn't able to stop laughing.
Chance is very funny man. Chance’s behaviors are matching my tendency that the points I feel fun.
 Chance is similar to one of my friends. My friend says something very funny compared to other people. When he says something, he doesn’t smile or laugh and he looks very serious even though he says funny things. It is a kind of his feature and I like that.

 Some people look they have obsessions that they always have to find the message from a movie.
 However, I don't dare to find it, and I just enjoy watching the movie as a movie. Of course, the directors can put some messages into the movies, but I think the most important goals of movie directors are that making audiences get interested in their movies. Considering this point, this movie really succeeds. Chance’s innocent behaviors and speeches make me have a fun. I’m glad to see this movie.

Compared to General Hsueh Sung and General Tien Cheng-tze

 General H.S is a sensitive and kind man. He noticed a drummer's feeling by listening to drum's sound, and then he allowed the drummer to go his wife's funeral. Considering personality, he is a nice man.
However, he isn't decisive as a governor. He doesn't like war, and he doesn't prepare anything for the war. So, he can be only embarrassed when he hears General T.C is about to attack his counrty even though finally, H.S successes to protect the peace between him and T.C.

On the other hand, General T.C is very calculative as a governor.
He isn't afraid of fighting a war, and he trains his soldiers systematically.
As soon as he notices Red Thread could kill him, he changes his plan quickly that attacking H.S's country and accepts peace.

Something I'm interested in

  I like watching baseball. I'm interested in especially Korean pro baseball league and I'm also interested in several Korean players who play in Japanese pro league and American pro league.
  When I was in Korea, I somtimes used to go baseball stadium to watch the game. 
The reason I'm interested in baseball is probably that the baseball games make lots of stats compared to other sports. It is interesting comparing stats of each players.
  However, I'm not interested in playing baseball because it is too difficult. On the other hand, I prefer playing basketball and soccer to playing baseball. I just like watching baseball.
