akeelah and the bee

1. who is your favorite character, and why you chose her/him?
my favorite character is Dr. larabee, why? because Dr. larabee thats makes akeelah great. And Dr. Larabee teaches akeelah a lot, and not just teaches akeelah, Dr. Larabee also considers akeelah like her daughter. Dr. Larabee also gets a trick to make daniel memorize the words, the trick is daniel memorize while jumping rope, this is funny right? But Akeelah uses this trick when spellin bee contest.

2. what is your favorite scene in the movie? and what has that scene taught you?
When akeelah deliberately answered the jury question, so dylan win the contest. But dylan does not accept the akeelah action. So they argue, and they agree to continue the spelling bee contest. And they won the contest.
