Phase I Students

Hello, everyone.  Welcome to Blog  #3

I am glad that you all enjoyed watching "The Island". One of the issues explored in the movie is culture shock

When Lincoln Six Echo and Jordan Two Delta escape from their subterranean world to the surface world, they are suddenly exposed to American culture for the first time, and they experience extreme culture shock.

What are some examples of American culture that were strange to Lincoln and Jordan?

As always, I look forward to reading your comments.

  1. the mivie is science mivie. It told us that people want freedom and they want to see the island very much. Every one wear the white and they have the rules seriously. I love the end of this movie. They save others .
    I think all of us should find the island in our mind

  3. Basically,Lincoln and Jordan never see a real life,real city,world.They remained at the level of 15 years old children.For them, everything was new, unknown.Of course the result-culture shock.But,you can adapt and survive in concrete jungle.
