Week 8 Blog Post

The movie "Easy A" and "The Breakfast Club" have similar moments and similar elements, so instead of focusing on the film elements and tactics, am focusing on the storyline, symbolism, and meaning. The movie Easy A is about a girl who pretends to be a slut, so the term "Easy A" can be in reference to comparing getting an "A" in a class easily, to scoring with a female easily. This movie, Easy A, is also a reference to the novel "The Scarlet Letter" as she walks around with a red "A" on her body- the "A" representing "Adultery". The movie also includes elements that the movie "The Breakfast Club" uses; at the end of both movies the directors ties up the ending love stories, and replicates the scene where the final character walks off into the sun, while fist pumping.
