Lord of the Flies Movie Review: 

Lord of the Flies is a 1963 British drama film based on William Golding's 1954 novel of the same name about 30 schoolboys who are marooned on an island where the behavior of the majority degenerates into savagery. It was written and directed by Peter Brook and produced by Lewis M. Allen. The film was in production for much of 1961, though the film did not premiere until 1963, and was not released in the United Kingdom until 1964.

At the beginning of the movie, it is shown that Piggy's outer look is commented on by his classmates and that he is ostracized. Through this scene, the writer shows the current situation of body shaming.

As the movie progresses, Jack and Ralph's group gets separated. Jack's group goes hunting and Ralph's group tries to find a way to get back from the island. Ralf's main purpose is survival. This scene suggests that people who work hard keep working hard, while others get money even without working hard.

In Ralf's group, there is one guy whose name is Simon. He is an intellectual and visionary guy. In the movie, he is shown thinking about something.

As the movie progresses, a scene is shown in which Jack tells the group members that pork will be given to those who join the group. This scene represents the current electoral system or rather the mindset of the present human being. He goes to the side which sees his profit whether it is right or wrong.

Rumors are spread by the group that the Beast is, when Simon comes to tell the truth to those present, he is killed by Jack's tribe.  And it is called mob lynching.

There is a scene in the movie where some students are beating other students with sticks and others are laughing at it which is called sadism.

In another scene, Piggy's glasses are forcibly taken from him to light a fire and then thrown away. The scene represents that people will call you as long as they need you and then you will be kicked out of their group.

At the end of the movie, Jack's group sets the entire forest on fire. The fire causes suffocation and they come closer to the sea. When they see the naval officer at first everyone thinks that this is their illusion. They touch a naval officer to turn their illusion into reality. And in the eyes of all, remorse is often seen.

   "Maybe there is a beast....   Maybe it's only us. "

         Orientation Trip.       

On August 12, 2023, Saturday. One day orientation trip was organized by M.R.R.Monapara Arts College at Zazmer Beach, Mastaramdhara, and Gopnath Beach. The main purpose of this trip was to see the behavior of students. Orientation Trip allows students to connect with other students and faculty members, learn about available resources on campus, and receive support as they begin their college journey.

We started our excursion around 8.30 am from our college. Everyone started singing a song and dancing but I didn't because I want to observe nature. Our bus was going towards the destination at a not-too-fast and not-too-slow speed on NH51, and I was enjoying the zephyr. The atmosphere was very calm and peaceful. After many years, I saw all the things which I and my family members do on our farm, like weeding, Spraying the pesticides  in the crop with a pump, and plowing the farm with a bullock. And I also like to drive Hackery, and that day I am so happy to see hackery after a long time. I had forgotten the village name when I saw the dry date tree. Mostly, it occurs in and around Kutch. A wonderful view of Shetruji river was seen, which gave another pleasure to the eyes while moving forward. Taladhwajagiri (Talajani Gufa) was also a sight to behold. Due to the monsoon season, the whole hill looked green and lush.   I noticed that today's farmers conserve water by using modern methods like sprinklers and drip irrigation for crops, while urban people waste water unnecessarily.

That day, I felt that monsoon is the best time for an excursion because, as long as you look, you only saw green. Moving further, after Fulsar and before Uchadi, I saw windmills. It was my second experience to observe a windmill up close. Finally, around 10.15 we reached Mastaramdhara, Zanzmer. There we had breakfast and then we went to Zanzmer Beach. We took photos. We came back for lunch. After lunch, we played Garaba. Here, we broke the rules that were given by our sir. Then we went to Gopnath Beach. There, we captured personal and group photos. The beach was very attractive.   There, I and my pal Ayusha had a lot of fun. 

When we coming back, I observed that in Uchadi there is one Mahadev temple, and behind it, there is a beautiful lake. In the middle of the lake, there are so many trees, that it looks like Andaman Island. And finally, when we came back I joined my friend's group for dance and had fun. It was not a memorable trip but it was a knowledgeable trip. Thank you so much, Dr. Ashish Sir Chauhan and Vipul Sir for your support. And special thanks to my dearest and most lovely friend Ayusha for being with me through the whole trip.

PRESENTATION SESSION: 

On  April 8, 2023, a presentation session was organized by the Department of English at R. R. Monapara Arts College for the students of T.Y. B.A. I attended as an audience on that day.

The session was very beneficial for me. This session provided information on how to choose fonts in PPT, what color to choose for slides, and how to edit pictures and GIFs in slides.During the vacation of class 10, I learned to make slides but never knew it was called a presentation. Now I got information on how to make ppt and how to give presentation with the help of vipul sir and vaidehi mam.

On  April 13,2023, a presentation was organized by the Department of English for the students of S.Y.B.A. at R.R. Monapara Arts College.

I attended there as a presenter. I got a lot of knowledge that day. I gave presentations on two topics: The Transition Age and Animal Farm as Satire. It was my first experience of giving a presentation. I also learned how to mail .At the end of the session, Vipul Sir and Vaidehi Ma'am gave information about what features and how to make an ideal PPT and what can be added in the presentation.

Many thanks to Vaidehi Ma'am and Vipul Sir and also to Dhatri Didi. Whenever I send a message, she replies. She also helped me in making PPT. Thank you very much again. Thank you very much  our principal sir Dr. Ashish sir. It would not be wrong to say that he is the backbone of our college because even though he doesn't have time for every program, he always attends to motivate us.
