In the movie "W" Bush seems like a person that knows he has made mistakes before when he was younger. When he was young it was like he did not care at all about anything, but having a good time, drinking, and chasing women around. When he started to get older he noticed that the things he was doing were not so good, but he wanted to make them better and actually start trying to become a better person. It seems to me that Bush even till this day makes some pretty dome mistakes, but I would say that he does not do it on porpoise. He does things to try helping people, but I don't think he has enough knowledge to know how to help people, so with that said he messes up and something bad ends up happening. No mater what, he does try and I chose a part in a movie that I think best describes Bush today even though this happened many years ago. Bush growing up was learning the discipline of a party animal, and forgetting what it was to have to work for what you want. His dad was trying to get Bush a new job, but every time, Bush would ether say no or end up giving up during the job hours. Bush then gets accepted to the school of business in Harvard, but the only reason he did it was just to show off to his dad that he could do it. He told his dad he did not want to go and when he did tell his dad this he was really drunk. So the part in the movie I chose that best describes Bush is the part where he is running for senator. In this point in time, it looks like Bush wants to turn his life around from being a crazy party animal to something more professional. When Bush first when for Senator it seemed like he wanted to do this because it was about time to do something for his self, and to prove to his dad he could be more than just a drunk party guy. Bush was running for senator in 1978, and it seemed to be like everything was going good for Bush, until something that happened at Texas Tech. A student form Texas Tech was having a so called "Bush Bash" there was going to be free beer, but the media found out about this. What they made it look like was as if Bush was giving free beer to students so they would vote for him. When Bush met with his competition Kent Hance, this was brought up and many other things that Bush did wrong in his past life. The thing that Bush did wrong was not fight back, He did not have the right words and was not ready for the things Kent said to him. Bush ended up loosing, but it was not the last thing Bush did. Even though he lost, this was motivation for him to fight back harder next time. Bush did not give up after trying once, he wanted to try many more times before giving up. He is till going today and ever since that day he lost he has not given up.

No title Hector. You need a title that starts Gonzalez and then a title. Please do not forget in future. Also, reread the Mise en Scene post. you have done no mise en scene analysis in this post. You have the picture up, but you don't analyze the character or camera proxemics, You also need to discuss lighting and the dominant.
