 Hello,

Today, you watched an extract of the movie : the argument.

The argument

The scene takes place in a kitchen at home.

There are three characters: his father, his grandma and Billy.

They‘re talking about Billy’s new passion.

It’s an argument because the father shouts and says swearwords.

The father thinks ballet is for girls and boys can do football, boxing or wrestling. He looks disgusted.

People think ballet dancers are skinny, feminine and gay because of the dancing outfit and the tights.

Billy says some ballet dancers are as fit as athletes.

Charlotte thinks everybody can do the sports they like.
