The Ice Storm: A Bit Too Nippy For Me The Ice Storm: A Bit Too Nippy For Me The Ice Storm, directed by Ang Lee, follows the lives of two typical families in their struggle with each other for love and acceptance. Through scenes of nature and hidden symbolism, Lee captures the quintessence of middle-class suburbia in the seventies. The two families, the Hoods and the Carvers, can’t be described by any word other than dysfunctional. Benjamin Hood and his wife Elena have a fairly poor relationship and hardly ever talk to their children, Paul and Wendy. One night Ben and Elena go to the Carver’s for dinner. During dinner at the Carver’s house, we are introduced to Janey Carver, her constantly traveling husband Jim, and their two sons, Mikey and Sandy. The adults sit and eat while Mikey and Sandy wait on their every need. While pouring a glass of water, Mikey accidentally spills on Benjamin’s lap and Janey immediately begins to mop it up. Here we get our first glimpse of the attraction between Janey Carver and Benjamin Hood. A few scenes later we find out that Janey and Ben are in fact having an affair, the first indication that sex in this story only occurs outside of marriage. wendy, mikey, story, scenes, sandy, two, much, janey, benjamin, while, one, film, family, families, elena, each, children, carver, storm, parents, out, night, movie, lee, ice, house, first, ended, end, carver’s, together, love, keys, jim, isn’t Word Count: 969 Acceptance_Essays American_History Anatomy_&_Physiology Animal_Science_&_Zoology Anthropology Architecture Art Astronomy Aviation Biographies Book_Reports Business Computers Creative_Writing Current_Events Economics Education Engineering English Environmental_Science Ethics European_History Film_&_TV Foreign_Languages Geography Government_&_Politics Health_&_Beauty History_Other Human_Sexuality Legal_Issues Marketing Mathematics Medicine Miscellaneous Music Mythology Philosophy Physics Poetry Political_Science Psychology Religion Science Shakespeare Social_Issues Sociology Speech Sports_&_Recreation Supernatural Technology Theater Theses_&_Dissertations
