Cold weather makes the day to be doom. Opening TV, Changeling was run. Spending time for watching it near two hours, I decided that Changeling should be one of my favorite movies. And you should see it.
Changeling takes place in Los Angeles, 1928. A single mother returns from work to find her nine-year-old son gone. She calls the LAPD to initiate a search. Five months later, a boy is found in Illinois who fits the description; he says he's her son. To fanfare and photos, the LAPD reunite mother and son, but she insists he's not her boy. The cops dismiss her as either a liar or hysterical.

When she joins a minister in his public criticism of the police, they in turn use government power to silence and intimidate her. Meanwhile, a cop goes to a dilapidated ranch to find a Canadian lad who's without legal status; the youth tells a grisly tale. Something is wrong in the process of the investigation. And you will see that people in the past, especially women, lived in what condition of the society.
This film is so interesting because of its plot which is based on the real murder in the past. The Wineville Chicken coop Murders are associated. It was a series of kidnappers and murders of young boys in Los Angeles and Riverside County, California in 1928 which was received national attention because it exposed corruption in the Los Angeles Police Department. However, this is not only thing that make this film more interesting. This film shows about the mistreatment of women in that time. Women who did not follow the norm or fractious in the MEN world will be treated badly. The film clearly shows that they send women to institution with the reason of insanity.

I used to read some English literatures that the writers used it as a social comment tool. But, it is not clear as I saw in this movie. Also, I have a change to read The Great Gatsby last semester, and it relate to The Jazz age.

So, after seeing Angelina’s dressed in the film, it expose the picture in my mind about life style of women in that time that although they were treated by men unequal, they still live in style.

The Jazz Age
The Jazz Age, the Golden Twenties or the Roaring Twenties, was a movement that took place during the 1920s. Many things had change in this time period, but Women in the Jazz Age seemed to change the most. Women became to take part in work forces after the end of the First World War there were many more possibilities for women in terms of social life and entertainment. Equality and free sexuality were the ideas that very popular during the time.
The young set themselves free especially, the young women. They shocked the older generation with their new hair style (a short bob) and the clothes that they wore were often much shorter than had been seen and tended to expose their legs and knees. However, women started to fight for their right to vote and live in equal. So this time is so important and interesting for everyone to know it.
This movie surprised me a lot, and it has changed my attitude toward Christina Aguilera. At first, I think it will be like Britney spear’s movies that always disappoint me. However, Christina makes me impress with her beautiful voice. I do not know that it is because I love to see old movies (EX. Grease, dirty dancing, etc.) or not. So, I love this movie that has the scent of old movie in its songs such as “A Guy What Takes His Time”. It is like I have a change to go to Broadway (the same feeling when I saw CHICAGO).
