12/14: The Return of the King

Rivers came back today, praise be, and the class started to function normally once again. We gladly watched the Disney short "Feast" again, this time watching it with certain things in mind. For Jake and I (The Parsley Boys), we narrowed down on the fact that parsley was used as a metaphor for change. We laughed and cried our way through the 6 minutes of film again, spotting every time a sprig of parsley was used. Afterwards, the class broke up into small groups and wrote down our analyses. Jake and I were a dynamic duo, we nailed everything from the movie, breaking it down into their meanings. It was so sad to see Winston become sad as the parsley became more prevalent in his meals, where the girlfriend had begun to take more time away from Winston and his owner. The parsley redeemed itself however, when Winston used it to bring the two back together after their break up. The real hero of this movie was the parsley. It not only brought a couple back together, but it also became he staple part of the meals that Winston now enjoys with both his owners and their new child.
