DVD Reviews of Monte Walsh

DVD Review: What I learned after viewing Monte Walsh
Summary: 4 Stars

*Spoilers* What I learned after viewing Monte Walsh

I believe that the movie, Monte Walsh tells me to strive for my desires and dreams because in the movie, Monte continues doing his job as a cowboy even though he lost his close friends and he continues even with technology taking his job away. However, at one point he has second thought on whether he is doing the right thing to leave his passion for being a cowboy.

I saw this movie at my father's house on DVD on September 25th 2005. I never saw or knew that this was a TV special, so the first time I saw it was on DVD. At one point I never had an intention of seeing this movie until my father recommended it, so I decided to watch it.

In the movie, it shows Monte and his friends enjoying their jobs as cowboys. However, at a point he loses his closest friends Shorty and Chip. He lost Shorty because out of all the cowboys he had the least experience in the group, so he was fired. Chip, however, left because he wanted to have a better living, so he became a hardware shop owner. This reminds me of my passion for the Japanese language. I have lost many friends who have gone on to do much better things because they thought there wasn't much work that involve the language. They might be right, but I plan on staying on track and hope to use it in my career.

Technology had put a big burden on Monte's job. With automobiles making horse obsolete and trains doing the job of moving animals much faster; the need for cowboys was decreasing. Monte didn't even like fences being built because they prevented him from going places and he wanted to travel all over the country. Even with these advancements he still continued doing his job. This was Monte's biggest difficulty to overcome, but he made it over in the end. I have also had a difficulty in my life and it was my ability to socialize. This had been a problem for me since I was really young and I wasn't able to make many friends because of it. Recently, I have been getting more social and this difficulty is starting to disappear.

When Monte lost all his friends; he had second thoughts on whether to continue his job or not. He was considering marriage and even considered an alternative job. He was worried about this decision to change, so he talked with his fiancée, Martine and she told him that she would love him regardless of what job he had. After this conversation he decided that he would continue his job as a cowboy. I, too, have had second thoughts like when I was moving from my mother's house to my father's. I was constantly wondering "is this the right choice" and "will I be happier over there". In the end I made a good choice and I am glad I made the choice to live with my father.

I believe that many people have desires that they want to go after and once they watch this film they will want to go after those dreams.
