The Riches

 This image represents the Smith house. A beautiful, elegant, home, just as it is portrayed. 
This is Grace, she is in shock, she doesn't know how to react to the loss of her parents. She is sixteen, and will be all alone. Even with the comfort from the Bradly's she is scared, confused, and overall in a state of shock. 
Grace is mourning the loss of her parents they deserve to be together forever, and  this would be the phase in Grace's life when she would be trying to move on, and remember the good.
This bloody knife symbolizes the knife used to kill Mr. and Mrs. Smith. 
The Smith Range, just a way of recognizing how important this land was to the Smith family, and that it was something big, not only was it a home, but it was a family farm or ranch, and it turns out it was worth to much for it to only be sentimental.
The Sheriff badge represents the authority figure in "The Riches". He was the one who tried to figure out who killed the Smith's and why. 
This oil refinery represents what the killer wanted, and why. He was greedy, and willing to take lives because of his hostility towards such a compassionate family unit. 
This image is what the killer deserved. He deserved to be trapped behind bars alone in the dark, just as he left Grace. 
The cash shows what Tucker and Sally were willing to deny, and how much they loved, and respected their family's land. 
These two men talking is to show how Tucker and Mr. Bradly had a simple relationship. They didn't pry into each others business, instead were friends, and respected one another.

My Movie, My Song.

Edward Scissorhands has been my favorite movie for almost three years. Often I compare new experiences to this movie. I fell in love with this film simply for its simplicity. This is a simple love story, and everything was risked. To me this movie sets a perfect example of treasured memories, and appreciation.

I selected the album cover for Christina Aguilera, Back to Basics because this album was my first ever concert. This holds a special place in my heart because of all the memories that follow. In the seventh grade I went to her show with my mom, and I was obsessed with anything that had to do with Christina Aguilera. Her voice is powerful and moving, and her songs are very compelling.
