Dear Student,
Hi and thank you for using Brainmass. You are asking for assistance in putting together a critical thinking essay.

Remember, it can be any scene as long as it is your favourite or of interest to you. Personally, I would choose something far simpler as it would allow you to focus on a few characters only.

1. Introduction - here, introduce what your critical essay is about and why you have chosen this scene from the Novel or the movie. Also set out your purpose. About 100 - 200 words.

3. Issues about conformity and diversity of the characters - 200 words.
4. Look into the informality element of the social grouping, especially in the language used - about 200 words.
5. Look into the behavior of the characters - what do they imply regarding social, moral and personal values? - About 200 ...
