WHY the name Delilah? - CHARACTER ASSESSMENT
The girl's name Delilah \meaning of Delilah is "languishing, lovelorn, seductive". Biblical: the woman who beguiled Samson into revealing the secret of his superhuman strength. She cut off his hair therefore he lost all his strength.
This meaning is significant to the reason as to why Delilah is named her name.
She is seeking attention, wants to be loved, seduces the men (symbolised with the colour red, which symbolises love too, and DANGER)
The biblical story, relates to our character, our character abuses the men's love and breaks the strength it once had, Delilah CUTS the strings.
The popularity of the name Delilah has grown this means people today are familiar with this name, as it is not an outdated name it wouldn't suggest a historic storyline or olden time film, it suggests a modern film, and we assume that people today may be more familiar with the meaning too, giving a backstory to the name automatically relating to our film character.

Character Assessment - My sister's keeper
This character assessment assesses important characters in the film through an interview i conducted, this helps us see the world of the character, thoughts, motives, attitude and behaviour. With this assessment i hope to apply this to my own characters and imagine the thoughts of my character and create the character in that way.

Anna fitzgerald, What was your situation?
once my sister kate got cancer, she gradually got worse and worse. she would eventually die without someone to give her genetically matching donar's. i was born for this reason to become a donar for my sister to keep her alive. I Refuse to be a living donar however, and the problems begin. what they do not know is that i would do anything for my sister to live but what kate knows is that she cannot overcome this cancer and she asks me to do one thing, to let her die this way.

Interview with 'Tim' (Will Smith)
why are you giving donars to people and helping them?
I had the perfect life, i was in love with the woman i wanted to spend my whole life with. it was me that killed her. too wraped up in my own world that i killed 7 other worlds, i killed 7 lives in a car crash, i did not mean to, i should have concentrated on the road and not my phone. but this has changed everything. now all that matters is not my life, not myself, but all that i want to do is change 7 lives.
What are your feelings towards Emily?
Emily is a beautiful lady she is caring and compassionate. when i met her again and again i felt more then just wanting to change another life. i felt feelings for her, she was the one i wanted to give my heart too, she deserved it, she was the one i wanted to give my life too. she reminded me of my wife, i would have done anything to save her life.
