Nonverbal Communication
By
Anita L. Coles
The movie that I watched begin with a group of young children,
the children look to be between eight to ten years of age. It looks like the
children dwell in some type of group home or school. (I had my daughter to turn to a movie with my
eyes closed so that I would not know the title of the movie)
Looking at the picture with the sound completely off it seems as
if the children are in the backyard running around as if they have gotten into
some type of trouble they look surprised or frightened. Although the children look
somewhat disturbed they also look like they are being mischievous. It is hard
to tell with the sound down. The children ran to the back door; an adult male figure
opened the door.
About seven of the children are standing in front of the door or
close to the door. The adult male starts from the end of the row of children
and looks to be slapping all of the children at hand. The children look surprise but not really
stunted or hurt more like they did not expect the slaps. Two boys begin to talk and start walking fast
and then begin to run…13 years later the boys are now adult (I am assuming that
these boys are the same boys who ran away when they were very young boys). The
two men are eating lunch and talking and the other one is listening but seems annoyed
at the one who is talking.
The man who is talking has a smile on his face and has picked up
a jar of sugar as if he is preparing himself a cup of coffee. The second man reaches
for the jar of sugar and while trying to pour sugar in his cup the sugar come
undone all the sugar pours into the second man’s cup. The second man looks very
annoyed. The first man continues to talk
as if nothing happened out of the ordinary.
This seems to further annoy the second man. The first man stands to his feet begins to
walk away and with his back to the second man, the first man continues to talk
to the second man. The second man while
looking upset begins to talk to the first man. The first man does not turn
around but does appear to respond to what the second’s comments. The men seem to be casing homes and breaking
into the homes. The homes look like they belong to very rich individuals.
Although the second man seems to go along with the first he
seems very reluctant to do so.
The second man meets a very pretty young woman. The woman
appears to be going along with whatever the two men are doing.
One day both men appear to get into a huge disagreement and part
ways. One day while the second man and
the women were walking in what looked like a meadow the man hand what look to
be a letter in his hand; after reading the letter the man went down to his
knees and the women kneel down in front of the man as if she was trying to console
the man.
(With the volume on) This
movie was about two brothers who were in an orphanage. They were pranksters. The last prank that they pulled man the
housemaster very angry and he (the headmaster) punish all who that was involved
by slapping their little faces. This made the brothers angry so the brother ran
away. The youngest brother had the strongest
well so he was able to talk the older brother into doing whatever he (the
youngest brother) wanted
The youngest brother talked the oldest brother into a life of
crime until he (the oldest brother) found a woman. After meeting the women the
brother tried to continence his younger brother to give up life of crime but
the brother would not. The younger brother and his older brother, along with
and his now wife went separate ways, the younger brother continued his life of
crime; the older brother started living the straight and narrow.
One day while he and his wife were taking a walk the older brother received
a letter informing him that is younger brother had gotten brutally beaten up
and as a result had died. The other
brother fell to his knees and his wile knell down on her knees to comfort him…end
of story.
It just goes to show that we really cannot always look at a
situation and assume what we see or what we think we see is the truth and or
the facts to a situation.
I though t that the boys were good friends or perhaps brothers.
I could tell that the boys/men were close and that they did mostly if not all
everything together. I could tell that man of the men was more spontaneous than
the other man, However, I was very shock to learn that the one the daring and
spontaneous man was the younger and not the older man. I just assume that the
one who was always holding back with what appeared to be doubts and concerns
was the younger man.
