“Christmas
in September”
Christmas and September
The Philippines actually has one of the longest Christmas
seasons. It starts on September. As early as September, you will already hear
Christmas carols being sung on the radio and on TV. Decors are already starting
to sprout up or sold for the buyers who are starting to shop around for
Christmas. That’s why our group chose Pre-Christmas movies for this week.
What's the story?
Kevin McAllister already got left Home Alone one Christmas;
now he's on the wrong plane and headed to New York City while his family jets
off to Miami for the holiday. Kevin (Macaulay Culkin), once again happy to be
free of his boisterous family, sets out on an adventure in the big city. His
father's credit card rents him a suite at the Plaza Hotel. Slapstick moments
are provided by run-ins with the original movie's goofball villains, Harry and
Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, respectively). The duo has escaped from
prison and is planning to rob a toy store on Christmas Eve -- and Kevin's
determined to stop them. Finally, Mom (Catherine O'Hara) realizes that her
son's missing and frantically tries to find him.
Review
Let me tell you the negative and the positive side of the movie.
The negative feedback is, through this movie, children might be opened in
violence. Children who watch this movie will think that setting traps is good
because it’s so funny as the movie shown. So parents, watch out your children.
On the other hand, the movie shown a good example of
Christmas, family is important. In the movie, Kevin reached Marley and gave her
advice to reconcile with her son and also, when Kate never give-up just to see
his son safe with her arms. Over all, the movie is funny yet full of message
In relation to Filipino Christmas
celebration culture…
Filipinos
are creative and resourceful
-
In
the movie Kevin used recycled things to make traps for the two criminals. Same
way, Filipinos are very creative and resourceful. They used many materials in
making decorations.
Filipino is
always happy in spite of difficulties
-We all know
that Philippines is one of the third world countries in the world, yet you will
noticed there still food in the table during Christmas.
Filipinos
are family oriented and has a closed family ties culture
-When Kate
persistently find his son, we can relate it in Filipino Culture were in during
Christmas, being complete in “noche buena” is a big deal to Filipinos. Most of
us go to our province to enjoy the season together with our family. And that
the Spirit of Christmas.For Nobody wants to be alone in this Christmas. Cherish
the moments with your loved ones.
So, from my deepest part of my heart
I greet you all Merry, Merry Christmas.!
