Making Connections!

I think that The Lion King is a great example of a movie or novel like great expectations. Simba (Pip) has to go through life at a young age, without parents and with a lot of people that are not the nicest to him or the kindest members of the family. Many of the main characters in the movie (The Lion King) effected Simba in positive ways, and sadly negative ways. Uncle Scar is like Mrs. Joe Gargary in ways for both mean attitudes and careless hearts towards Simba and Pip. And they are real family members and still they treat them like nothing! Nala (Estella) is a friend Simba has had since he was little. Although they went through rough times and patches of not seeing each other through growing up, they ended up getting together as they were older and falling in love. Even though Nala was way sweeter to Simba, than Estella to Pip, the same logic is played for the most likely relationship between childhood friends. The Hyenas gang (of uncle scars) could represent the characters that started out mean and scary, but in the end respected Simba (Pip) and were not against him as they were when he was younger. There are three hyenas. The first representing Jaggers for his secretive ways and uneasy scariness. The second portraying Abel Magwich for his coniving threats but the loyalty of love in the end. And last, the third hyena stands for Miss Havisham, although in the beginning she had no love for Pip and always told Estella to hurt him emotionally, she apoligized for everything in the end. and I think that Zazu (Joe) for his nice behavior and he always looks out for Simba (Pip) and doesnt let him go as easily as Uncle Scar Mrs. Joe Gargary) did.
