In class movie

The movie we watched in class was different from anything I have seen before. Although it was not the most exciting movie ever made it was interesting in other ways. For example I thought it was interesting how the bird’s lives differed from the humans in the film. The birds were concerned about survival and feeding each other. There also was an emphasis on the birds caring for their young. The bird’s whole life seems to revolve around survival and nothing else. But on the other hand the people you saw in the film were doing activities such as walking dogs or little tasks. I thought this was interesting because it seems our daily lives revolve around different things other that survival. For example our lives are so comfortable we don’t need many survival instincts. The birds on the other hand do not have this luxury. The way the birds perceived the people was also fascinating. It was almost as the people were just merely in the background instead of perceived as individuals. This is exactly the same way people perceive animals as merely a background and not as individuals. So although the movie was not to exciting it really puts things into perspective about human and animal lives.
