Jean Badou ENG 100 Assignment #3: Film Based Argument Due: Draft#1 posted to blog by 11:59 on 3/23 Should America Allow Immigrants into the Country? In the film, Survivor, screenwriter Philip Shelby write about Kate Abbot’s struggles with saving America from a terrorist attack. Abbott is a security service agent who works for the Embassy in London. Her mission is to help those who have troubleshoot visa applicants for suspected terrorists coming to the U.S. One applicant specifically raise red flags in his application. In the process to find more information about this applicant her boss immediately dismisses her suspicion. The more she tried to let her suspicions go, the more strange things started happening which made her to be more curious. Immediately she found that a top-notch assassin known as the Watchmaker is after her. This Watchmaker was looking for opportunities to get rid of Kate. In the process of killing Kate, a lot of strange things happened that cause the lives of her colleagues, which she was blamed for but it was the Watchmaker who was responsible for their death and her boss who dismissed her suspension was working for the Watchmaker . She learns of a plot where a sniper (Watchmaker) will shoot a gas bomb in time Square in an attempt to kill innocent civilians. This is an example of why many Americans are living in fear of immigrants. Every year thousand of people from different race, ethnic,religion,culture and background come to the United State for different reason. Many of these people believe that the U.S is a best place to be and live because there are different opportunities like freedom, protection, benefits,which are important for a living. However, many Americans feel as though large number of immigrants is affecting the country especially it citizens. But I believe, it is in the best interest of America to accept immigrant because of economical reasons, diversity and to aid other countries that are in needs. There are lot of advantages that comes with allowing immigrant to the country. One for instance immigrants is that immigrant contribute to the American economy by paying tax on goods. Another way that immigrant contribute to the economy is that illegal immigrant work for cheaper labor because they are undocumented aliens. Undocumented aliens are more willing to work at a job that pay less than the average American, which means that the more there is labor force the more business can grow because of it cheaper labor. This undocumented aliens works harder and this help more company to grow and reach their objectives. In the article The Effect of Immigration on the United States’ Economy asked an important question “Has the surge in immigration since 1970 led to slower wage growth for native-born workers? Academic research does not provide much support for this claim. The evidence suggests that when immigration increases the supply of labor, firms increase investment to offset any reduction in capital per worker, thereby keeping average wages from falling over the long term.” This increase the production of goods and reaching sales goals. Which result to economic increase in America. Another advantage is immigrant bring diversity into the country. Foreigners coming to the country brings new skills and ideas to not only employees but also socially. One phrase that have been used to describe America as a country is “The melting pot.” This is a metaphor use to describe multi-ethnicity of America. Immigrant entering the country are adding to the American belief system and culture. This truly show the beauty of immigrant entering the country with their cultures and skills to blend with citizens of America. Allowing people to migrate to the U.S help them to grow in their social class by giving them the freedom to achieve their dream. This also allow them to learn more English and have more opportunities to work in the country to help the economy boost. America by socializing with different countries help those countries to get more resources and grow by their own. There can also be some exchanges of languages which will allowed some citizen to learn and know other languages and that can be an additional skills for the country. Also the immigrants can contribute to the growth of communication of languages in many business when for example they need some interpret in some area these immigrants can help. In conclusion, in the film Survivor despite the fact that Kate lost her colleagues during the process she did not stop her mission until she save all those millions of people from terrorism and it is not because of the terrorism we should not allow immigrant into the country. Immigrants are playing an important role into the country. Prompt: After watching the movie "Survivor" I think that Kate was very determine and she did not give up until the end. Here are some questions I would like to ask.
Do you think that if Kate was arrested or hurt she could be able to save all those millions of people? If the murder was still alive what could happened next? How did you feel when Kate was able to save all those people after struggling? Purpose: The purpose of this film is to persuade and to show what the government go through to save the population from terrorism. The movie also teach us that when you want something no matter how things goes do everything to get it. Even if you fall get up and continue until you reach your destination. Audience: Different people can give their opinion about this movie. For example: My classmates, people who will look at my Weebly page, and my professor. Focus: This movie shows the risk people take to save millions people life and this is the case of Kate and the police officers who go through a lot of things before getting to their objectives which is to save the population. Style: Argumentative In the movie “Survivor” the main character Kate Abbot is a Foreign Service Officer who works for the U.S Embassy in London. Her mission is to help those who have troubleshoot visa applicants for suspected terrorists coming to the U.S. Kate had one applicant who raise some red flags but her boss immediately dismisses her suspicion. The more she tried to let her suspicions go, strange things started happening which made her to be more curious. Immediately she found that a top-notch assassin known as the Watchmaker is after her. This Watchmaker was looking for all opportunities to able to get rid of Kate. In the process of killing Kate, a lot of strange things happened that cause the lives of her colleagues, which she was blamed for but it was the Watchmaker who was responsible for their death. Kate struggle a lot while trying to find out more information about the watchmaker. Almost everybody in her office thought she was the cause of all dramas. She try all her best to save millions of people even when she was blame for the death of her colleague. She was surprise and happy when she said realize that Sam one of her colleague survive and she said “ Oh, Sam you’re alive!”.
Kate was determine to put an end to the danger create by the watchmaker and his “ Times was up!” Over all, the movie was okay because it is a kind of film that you can watch while doing other things without worrying about missing important scene. Throughout the movie, there were some scene that weren’t believable, for example when Kate ran to her boss to be comfort unknowingly to her, he wanted to kill her. I feel like it wasn’t believable when her and her boss were fighting in an open area and no one seems to take notice but took notice after she killed him. The reason why I Like this movie is because of how determine, dedicate and persistent Kate was . I like the fact that Kate stood up for what she believe in, despite the fact that she lost her colleagues during the process. This quote is the result of her accomplishment. “Yeah, it is Kate , there were over a million people out there tonight, and you saved them all.” She made it after all the struggle. |
