Analysis of Disturbia Character Ashley

In Disturbia the character that caught my eye was the young lady Ashley. Her actions and words were eye catching. The fact that her mom’s ringtone was “Dunh duhn duhn” also known as Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony was quiet perturbing. It just makes you wonder what is her relationship with her mother? Will it affect her relationship with other authoritative women who come into her life? These questions were just a few that popped into my head. I figured the only way to answer them were to take a deeper look into her her actions and words throughout the movie. I noticed that she also spent a lot of time alone at home, or at least that is what the movie showed us. She was either swimming in her backyard pool, on her roof reading, or in her room doing yoga. The upside to all of these lonesome activities is that they were calming, relaxing, and constructive. This shows me that she is a bright young lady who likes to educate herself. When she finally goes over to Kale’s house, Shia LeBouf’s character, a different side of her is exposed. You can see that around other people she lightens up and is very outgoing. Although to some she may have seemed demanding when requesting coffee and doughnuts, I believe it was her way of being flirtatious. I mean that is a typical side of girls when they are in the company of the opposite sex.
