Dave and Penny

Dave and Penny are not main characters in the movie "Stranger than Fiction" but they do seem to play some pretty big roles. Dave plays the part of Harold's best friend, they know each other through work. Harold talks to Dave about most everything and can talk to him just like most best friends in the real world do. They hang out at work and outside of work. Penny is the "help" brought in for Karen. She is suppose to help her find a good ending to her book. You always seem to see her and Karen together, outside, inside, rain, and shine. They treat each other as if they really don't seem to care for each other when you know they really do. Both Penny and Dave help their friends out, Karen and Harold. They both have there goods and bads just like any other character, we just don't get to intact about their lives.

Stranger Than Fiction

Of course I have seen this movie before because my most favorite actor plays the main role, Will Ferrell! I really enjoy this movie although it isnt a normal Will Ferrell movie thats for sure, but it still has just enough comedy to make it okay for him to be in. Now that we have our paper to help us evaluate the film, I have been looking deeper into it. Such as angles of the camera, the background music, and much more. It is wierd how many new things you notice just watching the same film over again. You have more time to look into things rather than just listening to the voices and what the people do. I honestly never watch a movie and try determining the main conflict or the setting, let alone do I pay attention to the special effects! I just watch it because it is hopefully entertaining to me! Now that we are writing this I have been deeper into the movie and its really interested to me! I am excited to finish this movie up again!

I think there are way too many good movies out there to just choose one! But of course like it says choose your gut instincts and I automatically thought of three different movies. The first one was She's the Man. I chose that one just because it has a lot relating to me, how I love soccer and I would do anything to play it! Also Amanda Bynes is a very good actress. Then the second movie is Napoleon Dynamite. This movie was just a one of a kind. There is nothing that can beat the stupidness and dumbness of it! It is such an Idaho movie! The third movie is one of my all time favorites, Home Alone. The first one, not the second or third of fourth or fifth, or however many of them there are! The first one is by far the best! Kevin was such a hero to kids all over. What kid wouldn't like to do that to a couple strangers! The movie was well thought out and had a good plot to the story. they pieced it all together well and came together with a good closing.
