For all of you Footloose fans out there, there will be a Footloose 2 that premieres on October 14, 2011. If you have no shame, join Mikaela and I as we are geeking out about this premiere. Also, in the summer of 2012, there will be a third movie added to the epic Bill and Ted saga. Hmmm, the earth is going to end in 2012 and the Wyld Stallyns will make their final appearance. Coincidence? I think not.
Alright, now it's time to get serious. Let's go back to Bay Ly's life before she left for America. So she got a job in a hospital and she meets this guy named Red. She thought they were in love, but he tried to turn her into a show girl. Obviously, that did not exactly work out. Then she got involved with a guy from Texas. But, he was emotionally unstable and left her when his job was reassigned. Finally, the love of her life came along and he was able to get her out of Vietnam. During her encounters with these Americans, they often yelled EPXPLETIVES like the following: "'Le Ly- you come back here!' Red shouted. 'Where do you think you're going? Damn you, woman....!'"(Hayslip, 284). Once again, we see the recurring theme of disrespect toward women.
