When I arrived to class on Tuesday, I didn’t know what to expect from the movie The Weeping Camel. My thinking of what the movie would be about was vastly different than what it was. First off, I didn’t really get this movie. I didnt understand the correlation between the people and the camel. Was it that they were growing into a family as well as the camel and her colt growing together and forming a bond or were the people there to just shed light on what was going on in the movie. I also wanted to know what the role of the sheep were in the movie, they appeared at least four times. As far as the movie as a whole goes, the movie at first glance would be one I would normally zip right on by when I would be picking out a movie. As I started watching it though I got more into it, trying to figure out what the movie was trying to convey. I felt bad for the little colt when his mom kept pushing him away while he was trying to feed. I wonder why the mom would push her colt away, isn’t it basic of most mammals to nurse their young. I guess in the end it all worked out, the colt was able to feed and grow and the mom grew close to it. All in all, on a educational level I would say it was good. On a personal level, I thought the movie was ok.
