As time goes by, winter is coming. If someone ask me what the most popular fruit is, I will answer it is orange. Everyone must have had an experience to eat some oranges, watching TV or comic books in a warm blanket. When I think about the characteristics of oranges, the characteristics are pretty similar to mine in terms of its color, peel, and taste. As most people know, oranges’color is orange. If people have to explain the orange color without using the word, "orange", it is really hard. The color is between yellow and red, but it is not enough to indicate the color. In contrast to Korean orange, sometimes called a mandarin orange or a tangerine, an orange has solid peels. That means it is hard to peel an orange. If there is a person who has not seen an orange, he or she will not know what is inside the orange. As a matter of fact, because it is so hard to peel, it takes so long to see what is inside it. Sometimes during peeling, we may bring tears to our eyes because of its juice, and our hands may smell an orange; nevertheless, if we already knew the taste inside it, we would never stop peeling in order to eat. Its taste is usually sweet but sometimes sour. Even though we sketch our face when we eat a sour orange, we will not feel bad because we expect the taste;
To be honest, while i was watching this movie, it was difficult for me to understand without Korean subtitle. However, as i watched it over and over again, i understood this movie was based on antagonistic relationship between humanism and materialism. Older brother, Zachary and younger brother, Christopher are described as characters who represent humanism and materialism. Humanism is a concept which respects human being himself purely regardless of human being`s external condition and circumstance. On the contrary, materialism means money is the best and the most valuable. When people think money is the most valuable, it means people can sacrifice and take advantage of everything in order to attain the money. Even though Zachary`s warm-hearted behavior is not a duty for living, we can learn from the movie we should live for humanity; moreover, the movie shows Christopher`s wrong perspective for material and greed is miserable. "The mountain", a movie made in 1954, shows beautiful scenery of nature and procedures that people confront a lot of problems while people were climbing a stiff mountain. One day an airplane is going to London from Calcutta. However, because of abnormal weather, an accident occurs which a plane crashes into a spot of Mt. Everest. At that time, Zachary gets a call for help; nevertheless, he refuses it and introduces other people because he saw a person`s death when he hiked ten years ago. However, the other people are also dead because of heavy snow and a snowslide. Finally, the rescue is postponed until next spring. Because of this situation, Christopher begins to succumb to temptation for the money. He persuades Zachary to bring money and jewelries together from the plane.
