Coal Miner's Daughter By Loretta Lynn

Decent Essays
All,

Sorry, I accidentally pressed the enter key after putting my title in. Below is my actual assignment. Enjoy!

Coal Miner’s Daughter is a biographical movie of Loretta Lynn, a legendary country singer that came from poverty to later become one of the most famous country singers. She rose from humble beginnings in Kentucky to superstardom. This movie is most definitely a must see, country/blue grass lover or not. Based on a true story you will be entertained, serious at times and full of life this is a movie that would be great for family night.

As far as being literary to Ozark Magic and Folklore this movie has a lot of the hillbilly/country slang and talkin’. In the book on page 37 “sow your turnips on the 25th day in July”

    “Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore,” was said by a great character some time ago, but this quote also applies to the to Price family (Fleming). For this, Dorothy is sort of Rachel Price and Toto is like her siblings, Leah, Adah, and Ruth May. Kansas, in this case, is actually Georgia and Oz is the Congo. So what this analogy is saying is that The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver is basically The Wizard of Oz just ever so slightly longer. In the story of The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy is forever changed from her actions and experiences in Oz into a better person.…

    In “Coal,” Audre Lorde discusses the empowerment of African Americans through the metaphor of the physical earth. Lorde specifically uses the comparison between coal and diamonds to represent how something as seemingly worthless as coal can be just as valuable as diamond (Dhairyam); the coal also symbolizes the darkness of Lorde’s skin, something she takes pride of in her writing (Dhairyam). Lorde discusses two categories of words: those that are “open like a diamond on glass windows,” and others that “live in my throat breeding like adders.” The quote above summarizes Lorde’s use of the earth metaphor. While only the diamond is allowed apotheosis, Lorde makes note that she too as someone looked down upon can accomplish the same objectives…

    In this stunning memoir, Rosemary Bray describes growing up poor in Chicago in the 1960s and becoming one of the first black women at Yale--and she shows why changes in the welfare system make it virtually impossible for her inspiring story to happen today. "Certain things shape you, change you forever," Bray writes. " Years later, long after you think you've escaped, some ordinary experience flings you backward into memory. Being poor is like that.…
