A REVIEW ABOUT A MOVIE

            The Help is a 2011 drama film adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel of the same name, adapted for the screen and directed by Tate Taylor. The film is an ensemble piece about a young white woman, Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, and her relationship with two black maids during Civil Rights era America (the early 1960s).

The film is set in Jackson, Mississippi, and stars Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jessica Chastain, Sissy Spacek, Mike Vogel, Mary Steenburgen, and Allison Janney.

Generally I don’t like movies which talk about racism, but this one is different somehow .. I think a lot of people agree too!! It earned ALOT of cash and won many awards as well.

                                 (I  wished to Wright about a book but unfortunately I don’t read :D I wait until it become a movie.)

˙·٠•●♥ U.of K Monkeys ♥●•٠·˙

Monkeys !! those adorable little creatures ! or that what it seems like when they are locked up in cages twenty yards away from you . unfortunately that’s not the situation in the university of Khartoum specially the faculty of architecture, where monkeys are as wild and free as harpy eagles of tropical South America. As a result a lot of accidents had happened , and the poor students are always the victims.

 In the beginning of the year one of our tutors said : ‘ you should consider yourselves lucky , back in our days and before the new buildings the monkeys used to get inside the studio and destroy every project after hours and hours of hard work , how frustrating! ’

I’ve witnessed a lot of girls and monkeys marathons but  I wasn’t an exceptions as it chased me in the very first day of the university!! but from the first eye contact with a monkey I knew this is going to be a battle for survival in the next few years. Another time when we were coming back from the cafeteria , a monkey spotted the juice we are holding , faster than a cheetah it ran and the next thing I know is my bag and juice flaying in the air and me running for my life as fast as I can regardless of the laughter and comments of the passers by . one of the comments was ‘what an athlete’ .

So I believe that our faculty is not only the home of future architects but also a natural reserve for the  lower species.
