Entry # 4
I totally agree with Rosalba with her decision to take a break from her household duites. Or should I say her believe that her intentions were right but maybe he actions were a bit immature. Based on the fact that her husband was cheating on her and her kids were pretty independent. I feel like alot of times prents get so involved in there kids lifes that they put their dreams and their lifes on hold. The Fact is she was not appreciated and loved like most other mothers. She didnt deserve it so she bounced, it was not fair to her. But after her trip she found true happiness.

I agree with you about Rosalba breaking away from her family. Things may have been different if her husband was faithful and her kids were younger, but the director created just the right setting in which we realize that divorce, especially with kids involved, may be a tragic thing, but because Rosalba is migrating to Fernando, a man who treats her well as a person not an object, we are completely acceptable to the idea.
ReplyDeleteI also agree. The special circumstances of Rosalba's family and life made it so the audience was always on her side even though she left her family for a long time. It is sad that not only in this movie, but in real life, how parents can sometimes put their whole lives on hold for their children. That's especially true with teen mothers. Most stop going to school, and once their child is old enough, they have no motivation to finish their schooling. It's very sad, and I think on some level Pane e Tulipani may have been commenting on that. Saying, no matter how old you are, you can still follow your dreams and have a fresh start.
