Religion In The Virgin Suicides

Jane Love was a normal girl, in a normal house, with normal parents as so it may seems. She is tall and curvaceous, her body is the true definition of the hour glass frame. She’s well like at her school and community. Her face is well lit and vibrant, she has a sparkle in her eyes, and her mood was always like thought of unicorns and rainbows. Until one day, one day something tragic happens. She kicked the bucket but she did it to herself she carefully tied her own knot as she grabs each string carefully as she twists, pulls, and goes up and under creating a loop. Nobody knows exactly why it happens just that it’s a tragic thing that happens to a sweet innocent girl. That one day her vibrant face was fading to a ghostly pale with a hint of

Well see to briefly explain the enforcement of religious views would be – to take a person and force them to read out of the holy book, go to church when they do not want to, and lastly take everything away from them that may seem ungodly in your preference. So to begin, this particular scene shows religious views being force it shows the mother making one of her daughters take a piece of her soul and literally burn it to ashes. To begin, this scene starts off in a long shot, where Lux sits on the top of the stairs as her mom is standing over top of her. As this is going a voice over says “after arriving home on Sunday from a church sermon Mrs. Lisbon commanded Lux to burn her rock collection”. Then when the scene progresses Mrs. Lisbon says “now!” as she walks down the stairs. Lux then says “mom” in a questionable tone, and Mrs. Lisbon turns around and says “this is final Luxy”.

This shows them as not being close at all, and as far as her mom she has superior power over Lux. The main thing that shows religious views being force is the voice over. This proves that it was being forced because after the sermon her mom made Lux burn the records. So whatever the preacher or priest

For false imprisonment the scene showed the Lisbon sisters in their room bored locked up and sheltered from the world. What showed this was the voice over from the boys it clearly states that Mrs. Lisbon put the girls in maximum security isolation. As for religious views being force, the scene takes place upstairs where Lux and Mrs. Lisbon are upstairs and arguing about her records. What clarifies that Mrs. Lisbon is forcing her religious views was the voice over again. It states that she has Lux burn her records after coming home from a sermon. She blames the records for why Lux acts the way she acts instead of the way she raises her daughter. As far as Sofia Coppola’s reason to shoot this film was to show that being a teenage girl or a girl coming up of age that suicide is what goes through one’s mind. So I fell as if she shot this film to bring awareness of what is actually going on in a girls mind at this age. As for Jane before she killed herself she carefully crafted and well written masterpiece explaining to her parents why she did it. This note says “Hi, mom and dad I know what you are thinking at this moment why would I do this? I had such a bright future ahead of me what have I done. Well I come to tell you I’ve been calling out for help but no one answer. Until one day a butterfly told me to join her and fly away and the only way I can do that was to
