Phoebe in Woman

“Phoebe in Woman” is drama which features a twin (boy and girl) who were separated becuase of certain views father could take due to unaviodable birth defect.  The girl who name Phoebe was he second twin to come out.  The doctor, as the father of the twins and also the one who facilitates the laboring of the mohter notice immdate that Phoebe has a birth defect.

The father as also the doctor assumed that the child will not survive long and so he dicided, through the help of her nurse, the girl child should be transfered to another hospital where most of the patients there are with birth defects.  The nurse could ot take the situation of living the newly born child there.  Instead, the nurse decide to take care the child herself.

Since mother knew she has twins, as her husband what happened.  Covering the real action he did decide to say that the child is dead.  Mother then insisted a have a formal funeral ad prayer to her duaghter.  Not knowing that her child is being taken care by the nurse, mother had accepted that she lost a child.

Later in the movie, after the accidental sudden of the father, while mother and son were cleaning the    photo developing workshop of the father, they discorvered a secrete proving that Phoebe is still alive and is currently taken care by the nurse who was once the assitance in during the delivery.  Both mother and son go to the address stated in one of the letter.  It was a mother day then, and they see Phoebe in her woman age.

I would like to recomment this movie to be watched and be reviewed by students taking up Literary criticism as there are lots of twist where literary elements are being emphasize and not to include the values embedded in this movie, the student will also have the idea of parenting or guiding a especial child.
