    For theme/issue?

    I'm not doing Philadelphia, but I'm doing the other two you're doing. I'm doing the theme of relationships, its relatively easy, just compare the relationships of the characters throughout the texts!

    I'm doing them all except My Left Foot, we're doing Strictly Ballroom.

    They all have the themes of Love and Romance.


    MLF:Love is a central theme in My Left Foot. It is not just the conventional love of a man for a woman and vice versa, but also the love of a mother for her son, the love of family members for each other, and the love of neighbours and friends. Without experiencing true, unconditional love, it is doubtful Christy would have had the heart to go on and realise his potential as a writer.
    PHIC: Gar and Katie, Gar and S.B (family), Gar and Madge
    LOS: Michael and Moira, Michael and Andrea, Michael and family.

    Yeah, the questions are pretty general so there's no problem with learning one off.

    Just make sure you make at least one comparison per paragraph.
