CONNECTIONS
In English, we are learning about connections (how each of the texts relates to the overarching theme which is personhood and what it means to be a person). The five ideas below are the underlying themes in the texts that I had noticed. There are many more, but to me, these are the most significant. Soon, we are going to write an essay based on connections so I will need to go further into depth for these ideas and maybe find a few more.
The four texts I've chosen:
- Blade Runner 2049, by Denis Villeneuve
- Ex Machina, by Alex Garland
- Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, by Kenneth Branagh
- Be Right Back, Black Mirror S2 E1 by Owen Harris
