Doll Face

     Doll Face. To me the portayal of the mechanical jack-in-the-box was a metaphor for this generation's youth. It was saying how the youth imitate the media's portrayal of how they look in my opinion. The concept of having a blank face until it came up to the television screen seeing another face only with makeup was to me a accurate description of the American girl. It reminds me of a  short story we read in my English class. A girl was getting a make over and all the while the girl who was "helping" her was cricizing her for not wearing make up or dressing how her description of beauty required. It can bring up the new age question does the media pressure children into dressing how soceity thinks you should, appearing how they think you should, limit even a bit of your own creativity in anything.
     People say they don't care how they look but then put up almost a entire coat of makeup and won't walk out the house unless its on. Some male teenagers redicule each other because they aren't wearing a brand of shoes, neglecting to notice if the shoes were even affordable to their families. I also beileve we should bring up the point of the Television leaving. The tv would rise and rise until it was out of reach of the youthful Jack-in-the-box until she brokedown. She couldn't exist while the Television didn't, this is probably a metaphor on how we depend way to much on television for many things: News, Information, Entertainment, and even Surveilance. This subject and video brings up many points, but it is unknown what to think to any of them.
