Matt and Vincent #5

Coles #5 blog post on the relationship between Matt form The House Of The Scorpion and Vincent from Gattaca.

Matt is a young boy in a world were he is not accepted as a human being. Vincent is a grown man in a world were he isn't allowed to follow his dreams. There is a relationship between them, they are both treated like outcasts and both are male. Matts imprisonment by Rosa showed us a lot about matt in his sand kingdom. Vincent's swim competitions with his brother showed how he would never give up until he accomplished his goals. Their really isn't a relationship here exempt that both Matt and Vincent make the most of what they got. Matt doesn't talk much in the novel it is more what he thought on the inside that we heard. Vincent talked a little bit and what he said kind of set up and ended the story. Both characters liked to keep to themselves and have 1 goal in mind. Matt and Vincent could not have done what they did if not for characters around them, Matt had Maria, Celia, and Tam Lin. Vincent had Jerome, that one girl, and to be honest you could easily count his brother cause he helped train him for the space agency. Matt and Vincent have a lot in common and a lot of differnces.
