1. Summary of "About a boy"
"About a Boy" is a movie where several emotional changes take place. This is a movie that has much to do with how things don't necessarily have to be the way we perceive them. According to the way in which Will starts talking at the beginning of the movie, he perceives himself as an island. He thinks that everything revolves around him. As far as we note, Will is a womanizer, selfish and superficial man who just thinks about himself. Marcus, on the other hand, is a boy who struggles with growing up. Marcus is a boy who lacks parental care, so he's trying to find his own identity and social acceptance. Moreover, Marcus is frequently bullied at school, and he faces many difficulties at home. These home issues have to do with his depressive mother, who during several occasions attempts to commit suicide. He believes that things are the way they are, and therefore there's nothing that he can do. So, I want to focus on the way these characters grow. Throughout the story certain sequences must take place in order for them to grow and also demonstrate that no man is an island.
As I said, Will is a selfish and superficial man who just thinks about himself. He lives a carefree life without worries. He does not care about what others think about him, so he's proud of his life because he does what he wants. He lives in his own world trying to make others think he is something that indeed he is not. On the other hand, Marcus is all the opposite to him. There are self-esteem issues in his life that perturb him, and he thinks that he's a strange boy who cannot fit anywhere. He feels alone, hopeless and scared about Fiona, his mother, who is constantly sagged in a very deep depression, so it seems to be that Marcus's life isn't easy at all. However, it's throughout all these emotional issues that our characters will change dramatically in their minds. With a naked eye, the possibilities that these characters get along are improbable.
