Unfortunately i wasn't able to read any of the course selected material, which is a shame since i already know some of Neil Gaimens works and i am a fan but i dont want to run the risk of not doing a blog post so i will talk about Lady in the Water.
The writing assignment for this week i feel runs parallel with the themes of Lady in the Water. As a movie it plays with the themes of myth, what is myth or what is new myth. Lady in the Water provides its own myth or lore surrounding the events of the film, how the lady of the water came to be in the pool of an apartment complex, and the creatures that her.
The myth or story behind the history of this lady and the water and the creatures that hunt her are eventually told threw ancient stories of some of the people who live in the apartments but its set in modern day, and how the two play off each other is setting, is quite remarkable.
