Reflection on The Secret Life of Bees Part 1

After having seen only a part of the movie I see that it continues to expand more the material we have cove on this class. Most of the themes presented in the movie like the woman perspective, the civil rights of niggers and all other challenges that came acroos the sixty's. It also shows certain psychological aspects as it is Lily's perception on having killed her own mother on an accident. I began to like it once Lily and Rosaleen got to the home of the Boatwright sisters where they take them in. There she begans to explore her mothers past and becomes involve in the three sisters lifes. First, August who begins to teach her on the art of extracting honey, but most important it helps her understand who is mother really was and how is that she came to end with T. Ray. Then comes June who is to insecure and it's afraid of getting hurt, the reason her relationship with Neil is not working. And then comes May who is quite emotionally unstable since her twin sister death and so she is very fragile. I was interested to hear that she was the one who pick the the tropical pink color of the house. My point is that this movie as all the other stories are told from the eyes of woman. Now I am more interested than ever to see the rest of the movie to see how it ends.
