We think that Billy didn't have to lie to his father and he had to say to his father the truth.
In his situation we could say that we don't like having lessons of boxing and we preefer ballet.

We think he didn't do the right thing because is bad lying his father, he would trust his father and told him.
But it is very difficult because his father  very likely  take bad this notice and in that time fathers often hit his son. So we probably won't say it.

Most of miners were very poor people, so they probably haven't studied. They have very sexist opinions. They probably thing Billy was a poof or sissy

We think that Billy should have told his father that he liked dancing and he wanted to take up ballet lessons. We personately would have been honest and we would told him that we prefered to dance.

In our opinion Billy do the right thing lying to his father, because if he wants to going to ballets class, he can do it, also if is his dream, why not?
If we are at the same situation of Billy, we have the same rection, because it's our childhood live

Billy and his father:
The relationship between billy and his father started very bad because his father was very nervous because of the money problems in the family. So the father treat him  bad: he hit him, he tell off Billy screaming. Billy was very scare and we think that he didn't tell his father that he was doing ballet classes.
At the end when Jackie knew the passion of his son dancing ballet he accepted it.
Billy and Tony:
At the begining we can see Tony hitting his brother with a magazine and some other bad situation but finally he understood Billy.
Billy and grandma:
Billy and his grandma live together and Billy help she a lot. When she found out Billy wanted to be a ballet dancer she understood he.
Billy and Miss Wilkinson:
At the first class she realized Billy had talent dancing and she wanted to help him, doing secretly classes at night thanks of she he appeared in the Royal Ballet class and he could enter.

If a classmate, starts doing ballet and it's a guy, it couldn't happen anything, we can assimilated and he could be accepted in the group. If one of ours, makes ballet, We could say it with valor.

Billy did the wrong thing lying to his father. But we understand what he did. He loves balley and his father never would let him practice balley. He had to lie for doing his passion.

In that situation we would have lied to our father, too

Billy, is not gay and he doesn't look like a girl and he es not effeminate. Michael, is gay and she looks more poof. They go togheter to the school, so they relationship is good. They don't have beautiful moments, but in the end when Billy is going to the bus, Michael appears from the blue and kis him on the cheek.

Billy and his father:  They have a poor relationship. They don't speak a lot with each other, because his father has a sexist ideology. But finally, he reflects on and he supports Billy.

Billy and Tony: They don't speak so much, but they don't have a good relationship, Tony is on strike and he don't mind his brother.

Billy and his grandma:  Billy has a support on his grandma. She could have been a professional dancer and he encourages Billy to dance.

Billy and Miss Wilkinson: Miss Wilkisnon lets Billy to learn ballet, they have a good relationship, but there are some tension moments like when they argue at the bathroom. But both now that they work good together.

We think that if a boy of the class say us that he does ballet, he can do it because it is his live and he is free to do warever he wants.
If we do ballet, at the begining we don't say it because we will be afraid, but during the year we are more confortable, so we'll say it.

# data[].attributes.body
They love each other very much, also they help each other. They're relationship is for ever because when Billy was an adult and he has an actuation, Michael goes to see he. They are very closed. They have a lot of confidence. They are best friends.
Billy is more agressive than Michael. Michael is gay and  more effeminated than Billy.

We think that the society must change. It's not good to judge a person because he is different. If you are judged don't let nobody tell you what you must do. It's your life and you can do whatever you want.

# data[].attributes.body
From our point of view, we think Billy should not have told his father a lie. Although the boy more or less knew his reaction based on what most parents thought at that time, he could have risked telling him, maybe Jackie would react in a positive way, there was a possibility. If we were him we would have lied,we’re not that brave, do as we say and not as we do :-) .

In this film the miners are presented like poor and angry people. They think that Billy is effeminate for practicing balley.

# data[].attributes.body
They both love each other. They are really good friends and they can tell their secrets with confidence. When Michael tells Billy that he is gay, their relationship doesn't change. Billy doesn't judge Michael and that shows that they are really good friends.

The miners look in the film poor and angry people. They live in bad conditions. They work a lot but they don't have a good salary

We think most people of the class will think that he is effeminate, but unconsciously because our society think like this. But it's not good, society most change. We will tell it because the opinion of the other people it's not many important.

At the start of the film the father and tony hate the idea of Billy doing balley. But at the end both of them support Billy in his decision because they can see that Billy loves balley.

As miners had quite an important role in the film, they stood out to us. We observed that they were all men, there were no women. A lot of them were between 40 and 60 years old, even though a few of them were much younger than that. They came from poor families. We don’t see that much of a reaction to Billy doing ballet from the miners. We can only see at the end that they congratulate  the little boy.

# data[].attributes.body
In the film we can see very different types of relationships between some characters and Billy.

For instance, Billy doesn't have a good relationship with his father. Jackie is very stubborn and abusive, so his personality makes it hard for the boy and him to have somewhat of a bound. It seems like Jackie acts this way due to his wife passing away, this makes him even colder and more depressed. In the end, we can see a change, he realises how passionate Billy is about ballet and a much more cheerful and peaceful personality shines through.

Tony also has a passion, it is being rebellious and fighting for what he thinks is right. All he does is follow the footsteps of his dad, two of the cases in which we can obviously notice that are:
• When he is on strike and at the picket lines, if his father was against it from the beginning, Tony would have done the same as him.
• When Jackie doesn't want Billy to do ballet he doesn't agree either. However, when his father changes his mind, the brother does too.
The relationship between him and Billy is similar to the one between Jakie. Tony treats his brother badly and he's always agressive, insulting  and yelling at him.

Finally a calm and friendly relationship. Billy's grandma has supported him from the beginning. She could have been a professional dancer so she understands the passion that Billy has for the art, even if he is a boy. She just wants him to be happy and enjoy what he does.

Billy and Miss Wilkinson have a weird relationship in our opinion. The teacher is really hard on him although that's one way of pushing him out of his comfort zone. We think she should have encouraged and motivated him a bit more instead of being so harsh. Therefore, it wouldn't have even crossed his mind to give up. Miss Wilkinson is quite cold with him, she doesn't show a lot of affection to the boy, but she did actually care for him and she believed that he could be a great dancer and make it into the ballet school.

# data[].attributes.body
If a boy from our class takes up ballet we would be happy for him and we would support that person. But to us, it is not that big of a deal, it's the same as if he played basketball or football, we wouldn't pay an extra amount of attention. Like it's great and all that he had the courage to tell us but, unless it's our friend, we wouldn't be constantly be talking about it.
If we were that person who does ballet, it would take us no effort to tell the rest of the class. There can be people who critisize you but, in the end of the day, who cares. Even if you're the best of the best at something you will sill have haters anyway, so why should you care about what others think?

# data[].attributes.body
Billy and Michael were very good friends. In the film we can see how they rely on eachother to talk about important things like preferring ballet over boxing or coming out. That last one was remarkable in their friendship. Michael started wearing women's clothes so Billy had some clue of what was going on. When he asked his friend <<You're not a poof, are you? >> was the moment when he came out as gay, even though he didn't say he was, we could obviously tell.
When Billy finds out that his friend is gay, he accepts his sexuality and continues to be his friend, just like when Michael accepted that Billy wanted to do ballet. This friendship teaches us the importance of friends and not judging them for being different than you, it's all about spreading love and support.
