Amigo Brothers Conflict Analysis

Decent Essays
In Amigo Brothers, the two friends, Antonio and Felix are both great boxers that

eventually come face to faces in the ring. The two friends are forced to fight against each other

to represent a club in their community. In the end, when the champion is going to be

announced, Felix and Antonio both walked out together. Many people might say that this is a

conflict with "no winner" since technically nobody won the fight; others may argue against that.

The true question is, does every conflict have a winner?

Some people will say that every conflict doesn't have a winner because the resolution

might not clearly display who the "winner" is. For example, Amigo Brothers shows that they did

fight each other and tried to solve the conflict. But in the end when they

This conflict might not have a winner to some people because

the mother and the daughter don't come to a clear agreement with each other. By looking at

these examples, many people came to a conclusion that every conflict does not have a winner.

Other people might argue against it and say that every conflict does have a

winner. I agree with the people that say every conflict does have a winner because even if the

conflict doesn't come to a clear resolution, the characters still win experience towards whatever

happened. The characters figure out ways that they could not make the same mistakes again or

fix it the next time they come across the same conflict. For example, in Amigo Brothers, Felix

and Antonio come to a conclusion that their friendship is stronger that knowing the winner of the

match. In Two Kinds, the daughter realizes that she gained the experience and is now able to

tell others how to fix it if something similar happened to them. Every story also has an

antagonist and a protagonist, meaning that someone is the "bad guy" and someone is the "good

guy", showing that someone has to win in the conflict. Therefore, I believe every conflict has a

    Patrick deWitt’s The Sisters Brothers (2011): a satirical deviation from the cowboy western genre “The Wild West has always enticed the readers’ imagination” (Vanja 128). This research paper explores the context of Patrick deWitt’s The Sisters Brothers (2011). DeWitt’s use of a “stylized abstraction of western speech” (Vernon 1) offers its readers a respite from everyday life. Although it follows the traditional scheme of a cowboy western genre, the novel has certain innovations of its own (Vanja 130). The novel is narrated in a gritty 19th Century western speech, which although is sharp and distinctive, allows the story to not always be serious yet not always be funny, making the novel entertaining.…

    In my essay on, “The Outsiders”, I will be arguing that the Soc’s and the greasers are not very different if you compare the two of them. This is important because people are always saying that the Soc’s started something or that the Greaser’s started something but in the end they are just two rival gangs that both do bad things in their own ways. I would say that I would not be classified as a Greaser or a Soc. In my opinion, the Greasers and the Socs are not very different; they both commit crimes, they are both loyal to their friends, and they both start fights. The Greaser’s and the Soc’s are both criminals and they both commit crimes in different ways.…
