It good to be back again participating in this week contest, and happy new month in advance to everyone.
Before i go into the movie that represent autumn to me, i will like to define what autumn means to me.
Autumn also called Fall or Harmattan season in America and Africa respectively is that time of the year between September to December when the weather becomes cooler and leaves becomes dry and fall off its branches. Since i am in Africa we witness the Harmathan season during this period and the weather is usually cold in the mother and fairly warm during the day and there is scarcity of rain which makes the green leaves fall off.
To me a movie that represent the Autumn season is a movie that incorporate the yellow colour of the leaves, and shows off nature in it setting, i will have to go for Mulan the movie is a really nice movie i watched in 2020 during the Autumn season, interesting thing is that the movie was also shot during the autumn season.
I love the village settings and how colorful the movie, they did a good job in making the settings very colorful without doing too much or less.
The movie is about how a brave girl went in place of her father to join the King Imperial army when they were at war even thou women were banned from joining the army, she disguised like a man throughout the whole training and also helped them defeat the enemy and saved the kings life. The movie taught me to break boundaries and limitation when it comes to achieving my dreams or speaking up against some social discriminations or standards.
The movie has different amazing plots but if i were to pick any plot or scene that i really like, it would be the part where the kings army came to honor Mulan and her family at the end of the movie, the surprised reaction on the matchmaker face was very funny, because she as told everyone that Mulan was worthless because she didn't pass the marriage test, the look on her face was everything and very funny.
The best performance in my opinion would Mulan because she was the main actor and she did very well in bringing the character to life and dominating her every scene she was in.

To me the movie is not one of those movie you just watch and forget, the movie passed a very meaningful message about the women right, place and ability. It also talked breaking limit and boundaries, challenging the status quo and bad societal standards, Even with all the serious issue, they also showed the soft and interesting part of finding love and falling ion love, so the movie has a very big significance.
This is a movie i can and would watch every Autumn season because the the beautiful and colorful settings and the important message it passed across.
