Yes Man About Carl
Introduction
I’ll start by
introducing the main character in the movie, Carl. He is a bank clerk who doesn’t
approve loans. He divorced his wife, Stepani, so he lives alone. He is a negative
man. He always says ‘No’ to his friends and his coworkers. So Peter, Rooni,
Nick, his friends, hate him and Normon, his coworker, threatens to fire him,
but he gets promoted. His life is same ‘No’. After he comes back home from
work, he just watches movies alone and he doesn’t answer his phone.
Life
Experience
One day, his friend,
Nick Rain, suggested Carl to attend ‘Yes Man’ and his best friend, Peter, said
to him “You live alone lifetime”. So he went to ‘Yes Man’ and he tried to say “Yes”.
If he didn’t say ‘Yes’, it appears unfortunate things. So he allowed a begger
to use his cell phone, to pick up, and to give money, although he didn’t want to.
Everything was yes. He met Elison and he fell in love with her. Also he started
to learn to play a guitar, to learn Korean, and to fly airplanes. These things helped
Carl so much, for example he succeeded in rescuing a man who tried to kill himself
by using his guitar and Elison fell in love with him. However, she knew that
Carl always said ‘Yes’ and then she was disappointed in him, so she didn’t meet
Carl. After that day, he realized that not saying “Yes” is not unfortunate and
he ran to her, and he proposed to marry her.
Conclusion
He is going to say “Maybe”,
because in the end of the movie, Carl proposes to marry Elison and Elison says “maybe”
and Carl agrees to say “maybe”. After that time, Carl is not going to say “Yes”.
He will answer thoughtfully. However, Carl is simple, so he will answer very long
because of much thought. He may say “maybe” when he works, so clients will be
stuffy because Carl is not able to approve loans easily. His friends will hate
Carl because he will not drink all night like before, and Elison may be stuffy
because he will not select his opinion easily like before.
