Nell Movie Review

Nell is the drama that describes the whole life of a three-year-old girl, who was raised without any knowledge and experience of civilization. Nell has never been taught of any word form of conventional language. Her childhood was completely isolated from the outside world. As the result, the yet now person she could communicate with was her little twin sister. And what they used to communicate with for each wiz different was their own made-up language. After her twin sisters death, her imagination or so her twin sister has still existed.Still, that is the only one she could talk to. Something thats really interested here is how Nell saw herself when she looked at the mirror. There are obviously two different reactions and feelings when Nell was looking at the mirror. First, at the beginning of the movie, its like that her reflection in the mirror was another person, who was her twin sister a she were like playing with her sister. The other scenes are Nell used the mirror whe n combing her hair and dressing this is just like what a normal person does.In this case, her looking glassful self based on the perception of how other think about her. I guess, these two different reactions refer to the appearance of Jerome and Paul. In the film, later on seeing Jerome and Paul, Nell started learning about varying things in the outside world. I guess, every times of learning, Nell tried to image what Jerome and Paul expected her to be or to do. Therefore, its like she was taking on the perspective of generalize other which is Jerome and Paul.
