Hello everyone!!

I have an idea for the rewrite. I think that I'll take a case study of a Vietnam veteran fighting in the cancer disease. He is 52 year old. single and had no children.He lived alone.He was one of several siblings, but kept little contact with his siblings except for one brother who was his donor. His mother died when he was 16 apparently of a brain tumor, his father died few years ago.
He had a drinking problem in the past. At the hospital he was in isolation because of the ramifications of his illness.
In my rewrite ,I'll write from the eyes of his family. How his family felt and thought of being not in contact with him?.,why he disconnected the relationship with his family?, what happened to his family during all this years when he was away?, The trials to find him.

KELSEY DUNCAN

For some reason Kelsey Duncan has been removed from the group - she will sort it out with the lecture on Thursday. But for now, she is thinking of doing her Re-Write on Rabbit Proof Fence or The Help. She will also update as she goes, and once she can view this. The video below is the trailer of the film.

The First Australians

Hi all I encourage you to watch "The First Australians" every Tuesday 8.30pm Maori TV. Following that is "Blackstone" & then Indigenous Insight at 10.30pm. Super awesome to be informed about other populations and its helpful for our studies too :).

Aspects of Confirmed angle for Re-Write

Aspects of Confirmed angle for Re-Write 

Theme: Marginilised

- Low occupations, low pay, long hours, living in the projects. Two worlds colliding between the parents = Mother holding fast to the ways of her Island & the purpose of their migration. Father comfortable, celebrating the freedom they & their daughter have in the USA.

How She Move Summary 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0770810/

My idea is to rewrite some scenes from this movie (see link, trailer & movie summary). Ray the main character, her parents are Jamaican immigrants, she is second generations Jamaican, born and bred in New York. I think I will take on the parents perspective, or a male character or her dead sisters' P.O.V.
