The Rum Diary

This film was based on Hunter S. Thompson book. I really like this movie, because it show us the world in wich we are living in. in this one talks about Puerto Rico goberment, culture and society. Its really important that we educate oure self seeing movies about Puerto Rico or the place youve been born, because we need to now the storie and roots were we come from. Seeing this movie show us the importance to know about oure society, because we see everything based on true storie in here. Its better to see it in the movie, because we could visualised it better. in this movie we saw a lot of othering betwenn diferent cultures, out group and in group too.

The movie started during 1970´s narrated by Paul Kemp that was the main character. So it started by Johnny Depp arriving to Puerto Rico. He was going to work for the local news paper, writer. Johnny had like a boss that hes name was Sanderson. He gave Johnny the work of the tourist and he had to go all over the island an explore. Johnny dint find it so interesting at first, because he just wanted to write not visiting. Sanderson is the one that makes othering with the natives of the island. He also makes them fill like if they were not part of their island, because he treats them like if they were nothing. Paul had alcoholic problems and he always was in trouble. I think that they taught because they had money had power and can do what ever they wanted to. This are examples of out group and in group. Because you don't fit in the same group of people you are suround, for some reasons. In their case was the ambicious and the fact that they thought they had power.

This movie helped me visualize the perspective of the american people and how they see people with bit money, some poors like nothing. We do not see this kind of stuff only in Puerto Rico we see it all over the world.
