Think About It! (Introduction)

       I chose this piece, because I think I did a good job of capturing Murad’s “Americanized,” hypocritical nature even though he wasn’t exactly the main character in this film. The movie “AmericanEast” was such a great movie because it really showed so many things that happen within a culture and that it’s all how you choose to respond to it. The prompt was: “My Take—Identify some ways in which the film presents perspectives about identity, communities, and boundaries. You can draw on the questions above if you like.” This was my favorite part of the class and I hope you enjoy my interpretation of this movie and its character.
