Undeserved Misfortune

     One of my all time favorite misfortunes would lead to one of Disney's classics, Lion King.  The director of the film demonstrates great grief and sorrow within the characters despite the fact that it was all animated.  Due to the scenes in which demonstrate Simba (son) and Mufasa's (father) relationship towards each other builds up our emotions throughout the story line.  Resulting into a tragic reaction from us, the audience,when Mufasa had fallen into a stampede of wildebeest and trampled to death in attempt to save his son.  In the grieving pain and mistaken belief that he was the reason for his father's death Simba also reflects the emotion of sympathy and regret to the audience.   Such misfortune connects with the audience in various ways as through those who lost a loved one or simply through the pain that others feel towards those who suffer.  This hardship truly portrays the concept of how misfortunes contribute to a film.
