Author/Actor?. . .

Today we see many movies and shows that may degrade or poke fun at dfferent cultures, sexes, or many other things. But does the view in the show/movie represent the view of the author, or is it just another show that is just put together like that? I think that what is shown in the movie or show is not neccessarily the view of the author. Sometimes it may be directly what they view, but I dont believe thats how it always is. To me, it seems like they are just doing their job. They are professionals, and study what sells to readers and viewers today. It might not be at all what they view, but because they want to be successful in the business they produce those kinds of movies. They most likely wouldnt be successful if everytime theywrote something, it was completely their view. They have to do what they need to do to be successful. This can be applied to many different areas as well. But for the issue of the story representing the author or producer, I do not believe that is how it is 100% of the time.

Interaction with darkness


In the poem, Adolescence II, I believe that the girl avoids interaction with the darkness that is surrounding her. It seems as if the darkness is trying to interact with her, but she does not want ot interact with it. Maybe as if the darkness represents old problems that she's had and that she doesn't want to be reintroduced to those ways. Also, the moon light that is sliced thru the blinds may signify her fighting against the darkness, with it being the only light that she sees. All-in-all, I believe that it is more the darkness trying to interact with the girl and not visa versa.
