Identifying With a Film or Book Character

I identify with one of the main characters in the film "The Shape of Water," Elisa Esposito.

Elisa is a mute cleaning lady in a facility and is considered a low-class individual, which is proven

by the apartment's condition (Richardson, 2018). For someone like Elisa, with the inability to

express herself fully, she cannot influence most of her decisions and mostly watches people do

whatever they like.

Elisa Esposito has several traits that personify me; one of the traits is friendly. Even with

her inability to share most of her thoughts or opinions since she cannot talk, it is seen that she can

be a perfect friend in the way she engages with one of her colleagues. When Elisa meets the

amphibious creature brought into the facility, she immediately connects with it, and both become

close friends. This trait personifies me because I have made many friends, mainly because I am

constantly engaging in conversations with individuals that I have never met who want to know and

understand their views on different issues. Secondly, Elisa is a caring woman and goes to the extent

of risking her own life to save the life of the amphibious creature when she discovers that there are

plans to vivisect the creature (Richardson, 2018). Elisa's actions show that she is ready to protect

the environment, including all its creatures. These caring and protective traits personify me as I

spend most of my free time looking after the environment, engaging in group activities of cleaning

the streets, and ensuring that pets and other creatures are safe and given everything they need to

survive. I have adopted several orphan puppies which would have otherwise been endangered to

the extent of being killed.

Additionally, Elisa is optimistic about life and sees the best out of the worst situations.

Elisa does not care what others say about the amphibious creature, whether it is dangerous or not;

she sees the creature as beautiful and believes it cannot harm anyone (Richardson, 2018). This trait
