Cold Mountain
Civil War
The movie is about war, one man (Inman) left his lover (Ada) behind. He went to the war, a soldier is his duty. He was pain from what he had seen from the field. He escaped from the field by his lover requested. Along the way to Cold Mountain is not easy for him. He met different kind of people who he can't make sure they are friend or enemy. He had to hide from home guard, which can kill him immediately if they found him. While, Ada lost her father and she had to live on her own shoe. She became a brave and tough lady by her supporter Ruby. Ada always wait Inman, she keep hope and hope and they both happy at last (even Inman get killed).
At the first scene, I saw the bomb which look like a fire works. It’s beauty but harm everybody life. That remind me of Inman and other guys face when they knew that they have their own war. They needed it, they joyful with their duty. It seems like and eternal flame in their blood, but once it explores then their notice that is was bomb not firework at all.
What I saw from this movie are follow,
Musical are healing and being good friend for everyone, people are living for romance and honor than money.
They are believed in God, they have church and a choir also. They also kept photograph and lyric carry on idea and photo from generation to generation. They used letter to communicate to each other.
War is a bad but people are worse during the war.
Why I said that, it's from what I have seen from the movie. I think after the war, all life involved were changed forever.
War is myth, I think I’ll never understand and anyone else who never face the war directly also. I saw war is tough time for everyone. Even at that time women are weaker than men they had to hand on gun to protect themselves also. They also had to take good care her self while men attend to his war. War separated lover or family by the word duty. From the movie even they had duty but some still escaped because it too pain and sorrow, and someone too young to be a solider. That why they escaped from their duty.
The lovely part of the movie I like is marry is important, even kiss the lover are unusual in public. Not like at this time, American kissing in public is normal and marry is not so important. Ada and Inman want to marry but at the war time it incredible to set up marries ceremony. But they make it by their way by saying ‘I marry you’ many times before they sleep in the same room.
I wonder when we will live in peace. I think it will never happen during we still alive. Then what are we living for? For me is only one moment we spend with the one I love is the only thing which worth for my life.

When you blog, you are good - very good.
So what is keeping you from blogging.
Start with the Industrial Revolution and do the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression before you get caught up with the ones before midterm. Blogging means one has to keep up on a weekly basis. See what the big dogs in this class have been doing. You could be one of them easily.
Now blog, blog, blog.
Don't choose the dark background and red words. Hard to read. The best blogging surface is black on white.
Great stuff. Keep blogging.
