The films which are played by the teacher in the Western Film Appreciation Course are classical.These films not only introduce the culture of western country, but also touch everyone’s soul, make everyone to think about life.I am aways moved by these films.Among these films, my favorite is Scent of a Woman.Scent of a Woman is about a poor but excellent prep school student Charlie faces with the dilemma of whether or not tell the president who played a trick on him.If he tells the president the fact that he knew, the president promises Charlie that he will be admitted by Harvard, if not, he will be expelled.A retired blind Colonel Frank who hires Charlie as his companion.Frank arranges a special tour to New York City in the Thanksgiving weekend with Charlie.Frank lives in dark, so he has lost the motivation to keep alive in the world, he intends to commit suicide after enjoying the tour.Charlie saves Frank from verge of death ,Frank is moved by Charlie’s brave and feels the true love from Charlie’s perseverance , finally, he give up to kill himself and gets the hope and confidence again.Frank makes a speech in Charlie’s school and persuade the Disciplinary Committee not to expell Charlie for he didn’t tell the fact.Scent of a Woman tells us not to lose hope of life, even if you are blind like Frank.Frank is a very proud man with a glorious time as a colonel , so he is very negative after he became blind.His familis do not know what he need indeed.He thinks he is a failed man, useless, the only way to finish the unhappy life is to kill himself.But in fact, he is a charming person.He is able to dance the tango and drive a Ferrari better than normal people.He tells Charlie he just live with some thoughts.When Frank being despairing, Charlie faces Frank’s gun bravely and tells Frank he is attractive when he danced the tango and draved Ferrari.Actually,we are afraid of death as well as Frank.We can’t live with beautiful thing all the time ,but there is always a reason keeps us go on.Don’t lose hope of life.Charlie makes an example for me, he didn’t sell anybody out to buy his future.With the help of Frank,Charlie insists on his own belief, throwing away the burdens and selfishness.The character of integrity is one of America Values which this film wants to convey.It is difficult for everyone to keep honest all the time.Integrity and courage are the stuff leaders should be made of.Charlie guides a bright way for his classmates and us.In the tour to New York City, Charlie finds Frank’s attraction and helps frank restore confidence to his life.Frank thinks highly of Charlie because of Charlie is pure in heart.The relation between Frank and Charlie gradually become like father and son.Sometimes our confidence comes from other’s encouragement and praise, so it is important to know how to praise.Our lifewill suffer loneliness and depression, but friendship will warm our heart.We have much to share with our friends in life, including happiness and sadness, so it is important for you to find real friendship.In our life, we always suffer different misfortunes in each of our stage, but we should be those who face up to the cruel world bravely instead of being negative.

A Review of Scent of a Woman
Name:
Student number:
Class:
Scent of a Woman, a movie tells about a series of stories happened between a blind officer and a poor student.Charlie, who lived in a famous school with a group of rich kids, happened to see a few students prepared to play tricks on the headmaster.After the event, the headmaster asked Charlie to tell the truth and promised that if he did, he would be recommended to go to Harvard.It was so attractive for a poor student who totally depended on his scholarship to pay the tuition.But Charlie was such a good boy that he still chose to stand on the side of friends.With such a psychological burden, Charlie went to meet his employer.The person Charlie
needed to take care of was a blind and cantankerous man, Frank Slade, used to be the lieutenant colonel.During the 26 years on the line, Frank experienced a lot and his eyes was blown out in an accident.He had nothing to do all day at home and lost the courage and confidence to live gradually.Both of them got into trouble, however, after a weekend together, they built a special relationship and found the value of life from each other.What confused me at the beginning is that why such a film named Scent of a Woman.To be honest, when I first heard this name, there was a completely different frame in my mind.However, I seemed to understand something when I watched it the second time.It was amazing that Frank could identify women by the smell.From this aspect, I realized that Frank was an experienced man and the name of this movie was just a clue.And I still remember Frank said: “This is just the start of your education, son.” to Charlie when they were on the plane.So I began to change my mind about Frank, actually, he was a cute man with a mask.And after I watched the movie, I had to admire the wisdom of Frank for he always could know what people were thinking and solved the problems by a few words.Besides, the scene he danced with Donna also made me impressive.When Donna said she would be a little afraid of making a mistake Frank answered her: “No mistakes in the tango, not like life.It's simple.That's what makes the tango so great.If you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on.”I agree with Frank in this way, we should equip with courage to have a try so that we will never regret when we become old.And the last lecture is worthy of applause.Although Frank was blind he could see more than a normal people, didn't he?
However, such a hero as Frank wanted to kill himself after the trip.The little
Charlie was surprised about that, so did I.I guessed maybe Frank could not accept the situation that he suddenly became a blind from a majestic-looking colonel.I believed this was just a very little part of the reason.And after hearing what Rod said I thought that the real reason drove Frank to give up himself might be “lonely”.Frank insisted on the Greek spirit which pursued quality and encouraged people to try their best to do everything they want to do.On the country, Frank's family thought money is more important than quality so they left him alone.What Rod said reminded me of a sentence in the film “You're so wrapped up in sugar;you've
forgotten the taste of real honey!” It clearly showed the view of Frank that quality is more important.As a result, Frank was not accepted by the family.When Frank prepared for his plan of killing himself, he said: “I mean, there's no one wants to tear a herring with me anymore.” and after he was persuaded not to give up, he told Charlie what kept him going all these years was just the thought that maybe one day he could wake up in the morning and a woman still beside him.It seemed so simple, didn't it?But I thought what Frank really want was a companion who understood him.In the climax of the film, Frank was going to kill himself, the reason Charlie gave let him found the hope again.“You can dance the tango and drive a Ferrari better than anyone I've ever seen.”I was not sure what I thought was right or not, as far as my concerned, the magic of this reason was that it was an approval about Frank.Greek spirit believed if you died, no one would die for you and everything would end.Maybe this spirit in the deep heart of Frank was inspired by Charlie so he decided to give up his plan.After they finished their trip, Charlie had to face his problem said the truth or not.Although the other witness George abandoned what he said and passed the buck, Charlie still chose to follow his conscience.With the help of Frank, finally, Charlie avoided being expelled.“There is no prosthetic for that.” I thought this sentence should be remembered by every one of us.At the end of movie, Frank had a pleasure talk with a beautiful woman.It was a wonderful ending.The story happened in Thanksgiving Day, although both Frank and Charlie didn't have a good time with family, they spent a meaningful holiday.Frank found the hope from Charlie and Charlie also learned something that never be taught on the books from Frank, and I thought what they had done for each other was the best gift for Thanksgiving.Rod said this was the best movie he had ever seen, he must be deeply attracted by Frank.I think it is the reason why I can find something in common between Frank and Rod.However, views vary from person to person, I can't easily say it is an excellent movie for I haven't totally understood it, but it is a movie worth thinking deeply.Every time I look it back I will have a new understanding.

My Review on Scent of a Woman
The first time I watched the movie of scent of a woman I was moved deeply.I was moved by the naiveté of Charlie.I was moved by the lecture which was given by Frank Slade.At the beginning of the movie Frank Slade was an overbearing Army officer.He dislikes all the things around him, and he was looking forward to the costly life in New York.Charlie, a student of Baird—a famous college of the USA was in trouble by a practical joke that made by a friend of him.By chance, Charlie got the work to take care to Frank Slade.And then they went to the New York.There Frank Slade found the true life what he should to have, and just there Frank Slade was moved by the naiveté of Charlie.And the naiveté changed Frank Slade.In the school Frank Slade gave all the people a lecture, which saved Charlie.Just this lecture taught how to be a person, a true person.In the end of the movie Frank Slade went to make up with his granddaughter, not like the beginning of
movie.What I learn from the movie is that as a student I must study hard to gain a good future by myself, no matter how poor or rich my family is.For our friends we should treat them by heart we cannot inform on them to safe our side.We should deal with the trouble together.No matter how they see you, treat them by heart;help them because you are their friend.For ourselves, we must keep up our own mind.We should say what we think.Maybe we will have many ways to choice, the right way may be very hard to pass, maybe many persons choice others way because the right is too hard.But my friend, we should stick to choice the right one, because we cannot sell our soul.Without the soul we can get no future.no matter what situation we are in we must never say give up.What I learn from Frank Slade is we should keep a positive attitude to our life, no matter what mistakes we made, those were past, what we should do is having a good life.No one will live in the dark if he wants.Everyone will make mistakes in the life, but no matter what we have done in
the past, we should head to the sunshine.All in all, the movie taught me how to be a person with an unbroken soul.Only with it I will have a good future.
