DNA Lab

GATTACA

6. At the end of the film, you are told that the Doctor knew about Vincent all along. Why did the Doctor go along with the fraud? What would you have done if you were the Doctor?
I think the Doctor with along with it because he has a son too, and his son is like what they call not the right kind. So the doctor figures that if Vincent can do it then maybe other in-valid can do it to. Also he might have an idea that maybe people are wrong about these "in-valid" people. If I was the Doctor I would keep it to myself just like he did just to see if the other kind was able to do it too.

2. Why do you think Vincent left his family, tearing his picture out of the family photo, after winning the swimming race against his brother?

I think Vincent figured that if he could finally beat he's brother at the swimming race, then maybe there is a way that he can do other things too and since he's family didn't believe he could, he decides to not be related to them.
 
3. Describe the relationship between Vincent and Anton.


Vincent and Anton had a love, hate relationship with each other. Vincent hated how much attentions Anton would get because unlike himself, Anton was made right. But they both knew they're brothers so the love each other either way.
 
11. Picture yourself as either Vincent, Jerome, or Anton. Would you have acted the same or done things differently if you were in the same world as them?


If i was Vincent, I would have act the same way as he did. I would have treat anything to reach my goal if i felt as strong as Vincent did during the movie. If i was Jerome, I would have less motivation then what he had to keep going as much as he did. It would have took me a while to even think about helping out a stranger like what he had done. If I was Anton, I would feel sorry for my brother at times then I would be somewhat stuck up for being made "Right." Other times i would ask myself "why i was made right, and he wasn't." 



5. Choose your favorite character from the film. Explain why you choose that person. Would you want to be that person? Why? Why not?

My favorite character from the film was Vincent. He knew he wasn't the right kind but still believed in himself even when nobody did. Everybody tried to put him down but no one was able to break his dream which had lead him to going put to space like he had always dream about. If we lived like how Vincent did, then yes i would want to be that person that could say, I wasn't born like you were but I still could do the same things as you didn't think I could.
