Speak is a 2004 american movie based on the homonymous novel by Laurie Halse Anderson. It's a drama film focused on Melinda Sordino the main character, an unspeaking, depressed, confused and lonely girl.
She's a freshman and the new academic year doesn' start really good for her: people make fun of Melinda calling her "squealer" because she called the police during a summer party after being raped by Andy Evans.
The film begins with the young girl drawing on her face like a stitching on her mouth, she obvouisly looks disturbed, but that's because she refuses to tell anyone what happened.
This being mute increases the break between her and the others, family and friends.
She cannot get good results at school , but she gets on with her Art Teacher Mr. Freeman.
She grows up and she finds the courage to tell her ex-bestfriend (Rachel) what happened but she didn't believe her when she named her raper Andy Evans, who's at the moment Rachel's boyfriend).
Afterwards Rachel figured out that Melinda spoke the truth.
In the blink of an eye all the school knows the truth, melinda refinds the courage she left that hateful night at the summer party and restart living.
Can you change the type of writing? I don't understand..
RispondiEliminaI watched "Speak" three months ago I think tath's a very beautiful film because it speaks about one of the problems of teenagers like me, and it explains very well that it's very important tell everything, every problem, to someone that can help the boy or the girl. I think that I will read the book because that's a very sad but beautiful story!!
