I think the filmmakers point was trying to send you on a journey, and showing you what the United States government wont show you. He went on a very dangerous “vacation” to pleas us the American people and shows us that the people on the other side of the world are just like us. With laughter and emotions, just have a horrible government that is corrupt but other then that just perfect.

            I think his methods were very well used and had a great impact in the movie. The story of his child and wife always had people thinking “is he going to get back in time to see his child get born?” and the humor in it kept me in tune with the story and kept me laughing.

            That you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, even if they look like a tartest, talk like tersest, and have a suit case that might contain something that could blow the world up the might not be, and that’s why you socialize with people. Well not to see if they’re someone of al-Qaeda but whatever you know what I mean.

            No! Intended of doing whatever the teachers wanted me to do and try to get a passing grade, but after I started to do more and more work on it, it got very interested in the project and I got into the story.

One time I was trying to help and old lady, while she insisted that I should and that she could do it. She was trying to take a lot of bags to her car and refused to use a buggy as I told her why I should help her she feel then didn't even want me to help her up. Finally another woman came over and helped her up and told her I should help before someone gets hurt. The old lady told the woman that I was to skinny to carry this many bags and that she didn't want me to steal anything finally she let me take them to the car said thank you and went off.
