AUGUST RUSH

REFLECTION
MAPEH 10

FE PAULINE C. YEE | MAAM MARY JAY VILLAMOR |

My reflection about this movies is that when you believe in

something there might be a possibility that it could be true like
even if people would deem you crazy but then you are sure and
you are just upon whatever you believe in then go do it.

In the begging of this movie we see a young boy named August

who is in the rice field listening to the sound around him during
this part he makes us realize and feel that music is everywhere
which is true and to realize or to find that music all you have to
do is open up your ears and listen to the sound around you which
is also true.

Usually for us the definition of music would be a sound that has a

structured form or something that can be understood and not
painful to the ears but then here we have August who listens to
what we usually call noise but he himself finds it to be music
where he can start making a tune out of it. We can say from this
that he is musically talented or he could be a genius in music.

In this film we also see or noticed that August is an orphan boy

who hasnt seen or hasnt been with his parents but surprisingly
like a physicic person knows that his parents are alive and are
connected through music because his mother plays the cello for
Philharmonic while his dad is the lead singer of a band. He
believes that he can sense his parents through music and
surprisingly it is true because in the end he meets his two
parents.

All I could actually say about this movie when I relate it to our
previous topic in class is music right now, today in the modern
world music has no bounds at all no silly rules and over bearing
fundamentals to know. Today we are blessed to be able to make
music very freely not like before in which people or musicians
have to go to school and to study to be able to well-known
somebody in the music industry. Today most of the famous
people we know arent coming from Julliard but usually are seen
on the internet some actresses today start from auditioning for
parts in movies that later on bring them success in their careers
like Seohyun from Girls Generation she didnt go to school to be
a part of musical plays but instead auditioned for the part this
just shows how free music is today for our generation and that we
as children of today should be grateful for that fact.
