PRL 1 (Twelve and not stupid)

Questions:

1. If you were "I" in the story, what would you think of the relationship between Papa and Auntie May? provide some reasons.

- If i were I in the story, first i would think that Papa have a secret relationship with Auntie May because Papa asked me to keep my mouth shut and not to tell mama. Other than that it is because papa was very late picking me up and end up there is a girl beside papa. Who doesn't feel curious if someone ask you to keep his or her secret from the person that is your own family members. Papa could just tell mama about he went out and meet Auntie May instead of lying. But after papa tells mama the truth, i was glad because mama knows Auntie May. At first i thought that Auntie May is papa's girlfriend. Besides, papa is very close with Auntie May, so it is necessary for papa to help Auntie May with her problems because she is married to papa's brother and Auntie May really needs help.


2. Do you like the story in general? Why?

- Yes. I do like the story because the beginning made me assuming that Papa have an affair with Auntie May. I guess everyone will think that way especially women. The story made me feel i have to continue reading. I have to know what will happen next. At that moment, i have that angry and unsatisfied feeling towards papa. I was actually in the story. For me, the story tells about family relationship and marriage. It shows that some men likes two better than one. For example, They want a second wife but at the end, they just neglect them. Its not right. Every man should be responsible for his wife/wives and kids. What i like the most about the story is that they gathered and talked about the actual problems. Everyone is very calm. Not just that, the girl in the story, sasha is only twelve but she knows what everything is about. She somehow understands what papa, mama and Auntie May talk about.


3. Imagine that you are going to film this short story. Describe the film in terms of the choices actors/actresses, scenes and place. Provide some reasons to your description.

- I really like to film this short story with good looking actors and actresses, good scene, amazing place to shoot at. I would like to have Puteri Balqis to be in my short film as Sasha, the twelve year old girl. The reason i choose her because she is a very good actress. For her age, she is very amazing and talented kid. She knows how to make people in love with her act. Give her any role in a film, she will do it perfectly. Next i think i would choose shukri yahaya as the actor, papa because he has that good looking face and he is also a good actor. He can be funny, serious, stupid, crazy. He is very suitable for the role papa because of his kindness. I have thought about izzue islam also. He is also a good actor. Maybe both of them i will that as my actors. Theres a lot of talented actresses but for Mama and Auntie May's role i would choose Eleena sui and neelofa because eleena sui has that chinese look and she's suitable for the Aunti May role. As for neelofa,she is good with acting. She can be spontaneous. Places are important if you want to shoot a film. For me, i would choose a beautiful restaurant for the scene that they are having dinner because who does not want a good film? i do. Besides, beautiful restaurant with delicious foods. Not just that, we can also promote the restaurant. We can give credits to them.
