Grace vs. Angela

By having such a common name, you have to define yourself in another way.

Searching for Angela Shelton and The Grace Lee Project both have many similarities and differences. The road for both of these movies was not the main aspect of the film. The road was simply a way for all of these people to come together. The quest for both of these movies were different. The Grace Lee Project was focused more on finding differences among the Grace Lee's and Searching for Angela Shelton focused on uniting the Angela's and women of the world together.

The two movies were both based around women. However, in the Grace Lee Project the females were all Asian Americans. It was interesting to see how one particular name could be some dominant in a culture.

The two stories of Angela and Grace really interested me. What better way to tell your story than to hit the road in search of yourself. I really enjoyed both of the films.
