Beanstalk: The Real Story
Last October 3, 10 and 12, 2012 it was a hot afternoon when we watch a movie entitled Jack and the Beanstalk The Real Story, this movie was cerebrate to our last topic in management 5. Instead of having a formal meeting in our subject in Social Responsibility and Good Governance, we take away to watch because after that we need to retain a reaction paper regarding the movie. In the beginning, the story makes me feel bored of watching and listening because the audio and the array of the movie speak very fast and I dont understand what they saying.And another reason is somebody caught my attention or maybe Im not used to watch a movie at noon. However, the last day of the movie story, I had the opportunity to listen carefully to the thoughts and deterrent example lessons of the movie I realized it was interesting. Jack and the Beanstalk The Real Story is just wiz of the many versions, where the setting, time and place may be different, but they have one similar scope and ending. In this case, the giant dying, and Jack running away with the giants riches.It was directed by Brian Henson, the cast includes Matthew Modine as the unexampled day inheritor of Jack, Mia Sara as a mysterious woman attempting to bring him to justice for the murder of a giant, Jon Voight as the descendants greedy manager and Vanessa Redgrave an elder relative of the inheritor etc. The story begins in a wealthy businessman Jack Robinson with no time for anything but to work. His building a untested casino on the site of the family castle in England. During the construction, the workers discover the skeleton of a giant.A mysterious young woman called Ondine appears and accuses Jack of being a pillager and a murderer. The man goes to the senile Jacks house and sees an old woman whom Jack recognizes as a great-aunt who he believed was dead. The old woman tells him the traditional version of the Jack and the Beanstalk in which the giant is portrayed as a selfish. Because of the doubt, Jack decides to go to another world where all is revealed to him along with the story of his ancestor, the original Jack and the Beanstalk. All the people in the magical world believe that he is the one who steal the goose and harp they unavoidableness Jack to die.In order to save his own life, Jack must right the wrongs of the past and return the magical harp and goose that lays the golden eggs to their just home. With the return of the Goose and Harp, the Giants world is restored. After returning to his world, Jack saves the companys reputation and he decides to support the project of genetically-engineered plants that he previously rejected. At the end, Ondine returns to Jack, where she is allowed to spend one Giant week (seven years in our world) with him and they lived happily ever after.The story has been changed from the traditional Jack and the Beanstalk. The giant has been modify into a good giant, and Jack has been transformed into thief. I think this is the best part of this new version when Jack returned what his ancestors have stolen from the giant he not only restored a worlds riches. He also earned for himself a new meaning of life. Jack Robinson corrected his ancestors faults after how many years. In our case as people, if we want our future to be better, we must right the wrong of the past.Question, are you ready to face the impartiality and the consequences of your past actions and decisions? Of course, it takes time to even accept the truth but with acceptance comes joy and peace and with the two, comes the right decisions and actions. Yes, it takes time, but it will be worth it for sure. And lastly the movie or let say the beanstalk is hard to tell us that to reap lifes riches, we need to grow up, climb and do the work. Life is full of harmonious and fateful encounters. Dream it and stuff possibilities
