One piece of hair

Persepolis has many different angle on which we can see the revolution and its development. First off the veil, The way in which to control woman in a close society. The use this to bring women to submission in order to gain control over one person instead of treating them as people. It also put blame on women by saying the because one stand of hair show you can cause a man to sin. Which just covers up the issue of lusting towards other woman, which men should take responsibility for them selves on how they think and not blame it on something stupid as woman hair. I think this way of life really put conflict in Marji life because of her free spirit. She was more open outwardly but society told her to keep everything in. when governments or people start doing this freedom to express and equality go out the window and darkness is throughout the land.

Looking Beyond the Skin

The movie "Freaks" gives a wide view of emotion and actions people may or may not do throughtout their life. I liked how he portraited them outside there physical deformities or disabilities. He makes the viewer look pass their physical straits and look more at the characters of the actors themselves. Which makes you lead to the conclusion that the real freak was Cleopatra. The freaks of the movie loved, hated, cried, laughed, and many others. This is nothing more than what we do our selves. So where is the freak? Most movies the freak is the one who is corrupt and murderous, unkind, deceptive, etc. But couldn't this exist in all of us. Tod I think breaks those boundaries by showing them all doing different every day stuff and going through the same problems we all do. So I think Tod is conveying a message look beyond the skin and find out who they really are. Something so many still have a hard time doing today.
