Character

Many of us have seen, or at least heard of the movie, Finding Nemo. The character Dory, voiced by Ellen DeGeneres, is one of the main fish in this story. Dory is a hyperactive blue and yellow fish that is extremely forgetful. She loves to be a part of everything, but she always forgets what she is doing when she gets to become part of it. An example in the movie Finding Nemo, where you can really see Dory's true personality, is when she first meets Marlin and is trying to help direct him to which way the boat had gone, but she keeps forgetting what she was supposed to be doing while she was doing it.

 



I believe that this scene is a good representation of character because it really shows some important aspects of the character Dory's personality. One of the most important parts was when she told Marlin that she suffers from short term memory loss, because her short term memory plays a key part throughout the rest of the movie. I believe that Dory is very funny in this movie since she is always so enthusiastic about everything, but then she just forgets entirely and when she is reminded of what she was doing again, she is just as enthusiastic about it as she was the first time she began to do it. I think that whoever wrote this scene of the movie had given us viewers a very clear vision of what Dory was going to be like for the duration of the movie. He showed us her appearance and personality vividly and left us with a lasting impression of Dory the fish.
