In the movie the “Matrix”, I have chosen to write about Trinity, the backbone of Neo. She displays characteristics that a lot of women carry. Trinity displays the strength of a woman giving up what she wants to help someone else achieve what they need. She helps Neo achieve the goal that is put before him.
This is a character that Carrie-Anne Moss plays in the movie “The Matrix”. Moss was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, to a single mother. She was the younger of two children, not meeting her father until the age of fourteen. She also pursued a career in modeling in Europe, managed to get a regular role in the TV show Dark Justice, which was produced in Barcelona for the first season, and followed it to the shooting locations in Los Angeles the next year. As her career starts to grow, she receives roles in TV shows such as Models Inc. Film roles like, Suspect Zero, The Crew, Chocolat, and Memento, and then came along the “Matrix”. What a ride.
I see the character Trinity and I think “what is up with her?” What is she trying to prove? She is a strong self reliant woman, not bowing to anyone or giving in to anything. She displays an “I am not messing with you to day attitude.” Trinity, is bold and confident about who she is. Or is she? As I watch this character more, I come to realize that she is just a woman looking for what her future holds, not showing her weak side. She is a woman who is looking for something and doesn’t know what it is right now. Or she knows this is what she is looking for, but is not going to let her guard down to pursue this, lacks confidence within, but doesn’t display it. Hers is a still but full of strength quiet intensity.
After it is all said and done, Trinity is just a woman in love. The love she has for Neo overtakes her, and she loses her life in his, giving all she has to help him achieve the destiny for his life. As you consider what you have just read about Trinity, think on it in these terms; is this someone I know, or is this someone I could become? Now as you watch the Matrix take though on the strength it took for Trinity to give up her life for another.

I have seen this movie and I really like it. Trinity gives herself for for Neo. Also Carrie Ann Moss plays the part well. Trinity really makes this movie entertaining.
ReplyDeleteCarrie Ann Moss plays the part of Trinity very well. I agree with you when you talk about her being potrayed as an independent women, this is one of the attributes that helps her pull this rule of so well in my opinion. As stated I think that is really what made her whole, when she was able to put her gaurd down and sacrifice her self for some thing she loved.
ReplyDeleteThe Matrix is a great movie that I also enjoyed watching.It is very action packed and she shows tremendous mentally and physically.You revealed a lot of good information on Carrie-Anne you can tell she was a model just by looking at her.She has had a very busy career and it seems to be going on strong.
